Snow doesn't apply to my area but they are high snow rated. It was raining when I got them and they handled the wet pavement and puddles just fine. My driveway is 100 yards of just sloppy mud now and these let me in and back out with no problem. The tread didn't slick over, left tracks so I am pleased with how they performed in the mud, which is what I wanted. They are pretty quiet. Really they are quieter than the H/T tires I just took off. Nice off-road tire.
