With only 22,000 miles I don't have much info on longevity, but so far they have been great. This tire is labeled VOL PNCS which means that the tire was made specifically for the Volvo XC60 T8 Recharge MY2024 and has the Pirelli Noise Cancelling System which makes these tires very quiet. Quite noticeable when driving on Battery only. Grip has been great so far, but don't have a lot of driving in the snow just yet.
