I drive 30 miles each way to and from work. For the last 10 miles closes to home the roads don't get treated because of the surrounding land/water. I had snow tires but got rid of my old car, the car I have now has all season tires. The tires have good...

I would not put the chains on until I really needed them. Not sure how long they would last if you used them frequently. I only bought these chains because of travel from Washington to Colorado during the winter months. If I was driving in the snow on a daily basis, I would buy actual snow tires for the winter months. Good luck!

My Windstar van is running fine after about 3500 miles and over a year. I wouldn't suggest going on a long trip after use but that's just my opinion.

Gas mileage seemed to get better when on the highway. Took a trip a couple weeks after installation and got around 18.5 generally. The increase in torque was noticeable. Fuel mileage around town has stayed at 13 this winter however(cold climate).

Dont worry about it if you live anywhere that gets snow and salt on the roads as it wont last through one winter!

I have a small cement driveway and cement sidewalk. It worked great unless you hit an uneven patch...but thats just my ground issue. Last year we had a horrible winter in the tri state area, and this was a god send especially when we had a large amount fall overnight.

Hi Diana, we have 3000 miles on the tires and they are wearing well. I have my vehicles front end aligned every time I put on new tires. This helps get the maximum miles out of the tires.The Kumho tires I purchased on amazon should last about 40,000 miles before needing replaced. Hope this helps you.

I live in the Seattle area when my tires are consistently wet and I have had no problems

Yea but it goes away. I suggest driving over 55 for at least 30min or so. A little day trip.

I just bought my second set. Got 50,000 miles on the first set, and they still have tread, the UV was starting to break down the sidewalls enough that they were leaking air.

I'm driving on a smooth surface and was fine with it. Not sure about off road.

See Bob Miller's response, he explains it well. I have not had any problems on the road with mine, I used it several times last season. Also, I usually carry a spare CO2 in case I pinch my tube or had a bad spare tire.

I walk 3 miles (round trip) at least 3 times a week on a plowed road in the dark. There are usually bare spots and icy spots during the winter. I get a season's wear out of a pair. The steel points wear a little but they are still very effective on ice.

we just had over 10 inches and it did ok. Where we had the drifts I had to use my bigwalk behind but otherwise it did good. Also where the snowplow went through on the main road I had to use my big walk behind. But my big walk behind had all it could do to go thru it.

I live in Oregon and drive 365 days a year (well, maybe miss 3-4 days from snow and ice) and it rains 9 months out of the year in Oregon and I've never run into any issues with it. Works as good as the day I bought it a 2-3 years ago.

They are pretty much all season. If you live in the south. We had major snow in NC this year and they did fine. But, keep in mind these are not snow tires. They do ok in the rain , but these things are a mud tire that can be street driven.

That question is hard to answer because there is no indication of where you plan to ride. If on the street at low speeds, about 2 years. If on a bike path at high speeds, one season. If you are looking for high mileage, more than high performance, these are not the tires for you.

I had to run my car over 100 miles before the engine repair started working properly,but once i drove it over a 100 miles it ran better and sealed all the leaks. So my advice would be to drive it for as many miles as you can and see what happens after that.
