Given 62% while driving a Ford Fusion 1.5L Petrol (235/55 R17) on mostly town for 10,000 spirited miles
As the tire wore down, it really lost it's grip on snow&ice. On the dry and wet I have not noticed much difference, would probably use these tires 1 more year if we didn't have snow/ice here where I live.

Given 84% while driving a Volvo V40 1.5 T3 Geartronic (205/55 R16) on mostly motorways for 3,000 average miles
I got these tires with my vehicle Volvo V40 D2, that was brought from Sweden, I live in Czech Republic, so I don't need "nordic" winter tires but kept these for the one winter they were still within the legal limits of threat depth in my country. I was shocked how good these tires were. Even though I drove them out of their designed use case (mild winter with temperatures around 0C and mainly wet, barely any snow), they were well above average in everything. Maybe except handling since they were rolling out of corner pretty soon, but nothing that would come without good feedback from the wheels. Also the comfort and acoustics were excellent. Couldn't tell any difference in consumption compared with summer tires (Pirelli P7 215/50 r17)

Given 72% while driving a Audi A3 2.0T quattro (205/55 R16) on mostly town for 0 average miles
Tires were on the winter alloys for the car I bought, I've had them for 2 winters and will be keeping them on until they dry out for sure. The tires are amazing on snow, on ice not so much luckily I have Quattro as they do slip if pushed too much on ice. On snow however they feel at home with plenty of grip. Road noise is more than acceptable and they seem to wear ok from what I can tell.
