Default I loved mine in the snow and dry to except..

i kept getting bubbles in the sidewalls. I have like 8 of them with only four without bubbles. Some are brand new with great tread to. I am careful to i dont know if it was just my ****ty luck. They are the last generation to though. My summers are lower profile and never get a bubble. They are great in the snow though and I really did like the ride.

Default it appears to be the case, yes. Good tires, just took a while to catch on

I'll see if I can find a hat if you want one....


the A6 2.7T that parks next to me has them (not the snows, the ones with the interesting tread design).

Eurotire sells them....

Default Yeah I kind of thought that as they're not that popular

But it seems all of a sudden they are starting to become more and more popular. I'm planning on running them as winter tires next year
