Went from 33x12.5r18 high dollar "all terrain" tires to Milestars 275/65r18 Winterguard on my GMC Sierra and the difference in just about every category is night and day. No more road noise, smoother ride, ability to stop on ice. Overall very refreshing to say the least. Milestars Winterguard has an excessive amount of siping which really helps during winter driving i haven't had them on my truck long enough to know how they're going to wear so for now I'll give them a 3. Most winter tires are known for wearing out much faster than your typical tire. My only complaint is that on a bare gravel road they pick up a ton of pebbles and rocks and tend to make a lot of noise. Overall at the price point for how they perform I can't imagine anything else could compete. To anyone reading who hasn't ever tried a winter tire and is skeptical pull the trigger and see for yourself the difference they make.
