Very nice studded snow tires

First winter tire I've ever put on my car. Yes it is somewhat noisy especially with the studs but I had already read the reviews and expected as much. Had nothing to compare it to prior to using these tires. We had a morning with black ice on all the roads and I was thankful for the tires. There were a lot of accidents and I was able to drive around numerous cars and trucks that were stuck.

Put these on a prius prime which now spends most of its time in the garage as AWD is currently a must. Don't feel as solid on dry as the stock tires. Hard to believe as the sidewall on stock is as soft as a bicycle tire. Don't know is hydrogen would make a difference. All in all, the studs are what I really needed and I would do it again.

The wrong tires came the first time and the delivery of the second set was delayed so long that I needed to order from a local company and cancel the delivery entirely. These issues were terribly inconvenient.

The dry handling is kind of like driving on gravel. Car wants to wander in a straight line at high speeds. In corners you must take it easy, or understeer will overcome you. About the same with wet, but you know, even more because it's wet. The tire does snow and ice pretty decently, but there is a point where it gets to deep and well, performance suffered. Was a little disappointed tbh. Noise, they are studded so plenty of noise. I like the noise though, like driving on gravel, walking with cleats. Went with bridgestone blizzak ws90's this year.

Very good in Vermont snow. Not too loud on the road. Awesome tires so far.

It was a bit confusing as to which company in Maine was Truly a Precipitating Ties dealer who would allow delivery and ste up appointment to put the tires on. Alvin Chase at Eastern Tire in Rockland claims he and four other dealers were not participants. Even though you had called his secretary and set up a time to have the tires put on and delivered there and they had me scheduled. I'm surprised he didn't keep the tires and sell them for his own profit. He could have done that since they were delivered by FedX after hours. They were dropped off outside with no attendant beside of the garage in the open! Alien Chase claims it was without his knowledge. I was happy to hear that you could work with Shepard's Toyota in Thomaston Maine as they were willing to work with you, and are more down to earth and much more accomadating. I wish you luck in the future and hope you don't get into a snarl because dealers are claiming they do not know the tires are being delivered! Even though you were kind enough them and myself and we're aware that my tires had not been put on because I went up to the garage and got them because Alvin Chase told me which apparently was a lie that he didn't know anything about it and what he wanted to charge me was double to put them on. It is quite remarkable the Not only do we get a great deal on the tires which are excellent but also that you pay to have them put on even though he was a higher cost garage than any of the others. Please get it clear who you're working with on the other end. As a business person I hope you don't end up paying more to a garage to put the tires on then what we pay for the tires themselves. Remember with the kind of comfosion I had at best I would have paid more to have them put on or you would have. At worst the company could've sold my tires and claimed that they never came in or that they would have been stolen because they were brought after hours and leaned against a building all night outdoors . Thank you for the guarantees that you offer when we buy the tires in the paperwork that comes through that we can print off with the phone number that is very helpful and thank you for your personal attention with me.
