Put these on my Saturn Aura this year as my first set of snow tires. And while I don’t have enough experience with snow tires of other brands and types what I can say for certain is that compared to even the best All Season tires I have owned, these are night and day difference in the snow. The stopping distance alone is DRASTICALLY reduced. While I’m absolutely positive there are better snow tires with better performance on every category I can say with confidence that even as the cheapest snow tires I was able to find, they do have a measurable improvement in the winter.On the point of noise, I’m not sure if my car is simply louder than others even at highway speeds of 70-80mph I don’t notice extra noise. As for comfort I do find they are much bouncier than my all season tires. But the ability to handle the weather is more important than a few extra bumps for me.
