I've been running Agilis 61 for about 12,000 miles. 185-R14 size/ Took them by for the first rotation and tire balance and they all four looked great. You'll get a little road noise but they really handle cross winds well and run very straight on the highway, you don't have to fight the steering wheel in heavy winds. Some say they aren't good in rain and snow but they seemed OK to me in some very heavy rains at 70 mph recently. They have a very basic tread design so I'd say that they probably aren't the ideal tire for snow and ice.
