My husband owns a Toyota Rav4 and has had no problems in the snow or sleet/ice since putting these tires on it. Missouri recently received 6 inches of snow and 1/8 inch of sleet, and he had no issues. Where he works as an auto mechanic, he's already been asked where he got these tires. His boss was curious because he was looking to purchase some. He even purchased four for my KIA Sedona van, which I have no issues with.
