I am very happy with my purchase. They are worth every penny for safety.
Though I could not properly classify my vehicle in the survey )(DS) I must say that the Primacy Alpin is the best all around rear tire for my application. I ride very agressively in the twisties always 2 up and this tire outperforms the stock style tire by a wide margin. At the absolute edge of aggressiveness it gets a little squirely, but nothing that cannot be handled. Smoothes out the ride, and will not slip in the rain at any lean angle.
Purchased due to characteristics listed in Consumer Reports review. Performance was as good or better than review. For a snow tire, these had only a minimal negative effect on fuel mileage. When in deep snow conditions, they performed well.
