Rated 24th out of 24 "Standard Touring All Season" tires. Worst tires in a crap category!
3.6/10 for light snow traction, 2.6/10 for deep snow traction, 2.5/10 for ice.
I would not be on those tires this winter if I might have to drive an FR-S or BRZ in the snow.
Honestly I have to thank this tire, as it prevented us from buying a '13 Mazda3 to replace my wife's '05. The 3 is also on these tires, and the handling felt so uninspired compared to our old 3 that I didn't want anything to do with the newer model. Based on reviews of this tire, that could have been mostly down to them sucking so bad. |
I had them on my car, they were terrible.
Best thing i ever did is pull them before the first tank of gas was done.
Kind of feel bad for the guy that paid $300 for them on cl.
