Through the first few days of testing these tires in snow and ice, I haven't seen my tires spin once. The reviews looked good so I bought them and had them shipped to me. The first thing I noticed on these tires was the size and pattern of the tread itself. I haven't had winter tires so I was surprised to see how deep they seemed to be. I got them mounted and balanced and off I went. My dealer inflated to 30 psi but they list 44 psi max. The tread wear seems to be pretty good as well.
