The only caveat I offer re: these tires is that they do not carry the "M+S"
designation. That means that they are not techincally rated for mud and snow
by the Rubber Manufacturer's Association. In Maryland, this means it cannot
be legally sold as an all season tire. Or so I'm told.

This is of little consequence to me based on the sort of driving I do so I
went with them. Good buy.
