Shockingly fantastic in winter slop. I was expecting them to be bad compared to my Sumitomos. Nope. Even better in slop. 100% recommended. Great in the dry with very low noise and super highway tracking. Finally found the grail of cheap and awesome.

Pros: great in the dry

Sumitomo is a fantastic tire. I run their summer tires all year around ( In Texas, heavy sedan ) very stable at 85 mph+, quiet and stay planted.

Pros: very stable, quiet
Cons: not great in rain

SUMITOMO Tires

I personally have sumitomo and I really like them. Good traction. Good for regular road driving or mountain driving and all weather. A little bit pricier, but I feel the quality is worth it.

Pros: good traction, good quality
Cons: a little bit pricier

24 sport 6mt with the stock nfera au7. It does fine, but the tires definitely leave a lot to be desired in the snow. I dont feel unsafe, but im not totally confident in the tires either.

Pros: does fine
Cons: not totally confident
