I ran four of these on my 2005 Crown Victoria for about a year and pulled them for summer tires last summer, and probably will not put them back on (235/60R17). They do not track well, they have very soft sidewalls, and I would say their snow traction is pretty poor (I never got stuck, but I'm also good at driving in the snow). On the freeway they aren't noisy, but they also help you change lanes with out needing to do so. I caught myself having to catch the car as it would wonder on its own (usually pretty quickly). I thought it was my alignment, so I went and had that redone, and it was fine. When I put my summer wheels and tires on the car's twitching and wondering went away. I had to replace my rear tires, and the only brand the store had were Maxxis, so I reluctantly bought them. The twitching is back, and the rear feels very wishy washy again. Would not recommend unless you've got a very light vehicle or run low sidewall heights. Mine are 275/60R17 so they are quite tall.

I've had these on my 2005 Crown Victoria for about a week now {~1000 miles}. They're not any noisier than my last Hankook tires, but they do have a pretty soft sidewall. My car feels wishy washy with these tires. I put coilover suspension on over the weekend and the car is still pretty wobbly when making back and forth maneuvers. "Adaptive sidewall" sounded like a gimic, guess it is. I would still recommend these becasue the price to quality index is admirable. Just wish they made a 255/55R17.
I had these tires for over 60,000 mile and the are great in all weather conditions.
Ratings assume 5 is good and 1 is bad. First of all - quiet! Amen. Ride is solid and inspires confidence. Has handled awful rain and ice beautifully. Haven't had snow yet.
So far I am very happy with my selection of I chose.... They are what I wanted and needed.. Great traction and size for my vehicle and look good too... Thank you Simple Tire, I appreciate your business and know this.. I Wil be ordering another set before these are done... Keep up the good work... Again, thank you...

I like these tires but, the tread life was not I expected
So far, so good.
Tires are holding up well, great ride, good breaking.
I dont drive a lot so I cant comment on winter traction. But I love the warrenty and it handels better than before. Note this is my 2nd set of tires. The first was for a ford fiesta. No problems with either one
