Put a set of these on my 2016 Mitsubishi Outlander Dec. 26. No real snow has fallen in our area (southern Pocono region) but thought I would share my impressions for dry pavement driving.
Positives: very quiet (for a snow tire), smooth riding
Negatives: kinda mushy feel in response (yeah, typical of the Bridgestones, but these are worse than any other snow tires I've ever had)
What's interesting is that in the rain, on some pavement types they give off a significantly louder noise than in the dry...almost a "buzzing" noise....my guess is it's from the water interacting with the the tread pattern...very strange
