These things are just amazing. I studded mine so I cannot compare non-studded to non-studded. I think they are slightly better (or at least as good) as the Gislaveds in the snow and are outstanding on the ice. They already saved me as I had to veer around overzealous folks in SUVs shod with all season tires spinning out on a slippery highway. I had no problems. The SUV in front of me this morning started to slide on a corner where I had no problem. This was at 35mph on a back road.
If you're near Nashua NH, I got mine from Maynard and Leisure. They did a fantastic job. Knowing that I would be putting the wheels on myself, they adjusted the pressures perfectly fr/rr and marked each directional tire as to where it should go on the car. Nice touch. You'll probably pay $400 for a set of these mounted and balanced and may be able to get steel rims through them affordably.
ps. The treat material on these tires is similar to the Blizzak with the silica compound. A nice touch is that you can stud them as well if you encounter extreme conditions often.
