Totaled my car and bought the same but used car and while I usually ride on Michelin's, these where what the dealer pu on them, all new tires on with these. Dry handling is decent, not the grippiest, but is a decent dry season commuter tire. Noise isn't too bad. Not quiet like my Michelin's, but quieter than the Dunlop GrandTreks that were factory stock on my last car. My review comes for the rain really. These are terrible wet tires at all. They hydroplane just about everytime I encountered any puddle of standing water on the freeway. Like I said, tires are new and only have about 3500 miles on them so I know it's not due to worn treads. I have yet to test them in the snow but if the rain is any indication, I'm not sure if I want to. No word yet on tread life either, I hope to update as they get more wear. *My stars for winter/tread life are because the system is forcing me to rate and not leave blank. They do not reflect any actual review. TLDR: Good value tire for dry season commuter driving. Be cautious at speed when roads are wet. California, 2016 Rav4
