So I've had these tires on for about 6k miles. Up until maybe late January these have been doing the bare pavement shuffle. I was beginning to think my almost 1000 dollar investment (tires and rims) was a bad idea.
Well if you've watched any of the weather here in New England recently.....5+ feet and counting as we are expecting a northeaster tonight into tomorrow but I digress.
The WinterForces are what they are...they are fairly loud, ride sort of rough and maybe a little squishy in cornering......but get them in the environment they are designed for and they have transformed my go nowhere car in anything more than a dusting to a pure beast mode go almost anywhere tank.
My commute is 100 miles per day round trip and I'm usually on the road between 0430-0500. A lot of times there is still a pretty decent snow cover on the road when I hit it. I've yet to be late or miss a day of work weather related.
Is there some wheel spin? Sure but I haven't been stuck or stranded anywhere. I've passed Accords and Camry's spinning their wheels in intersections trying to gain traction and the Charger just powers right through it. I sometimes have to reel it in a bit as I have found myself being overconfident in some situations. For the most part they are very sure footed in the white stuff. In fact I look more forward to going out and driving in the snow than I was in my Crosstrek with A/S tires. I forgot how much fun a RWD car can be in the snow
All in all, a great purchase and I'd have no reservations recommending the WinterForces to anyone especially for the price.
