How this Tires on the snow and ice? This tires not more noisy then regular tires on the dry road ?
Surprisingly good on the ice and especially great in the snow. I am really impressed, also the fact of advanced traction control in the Rebel should be noted.
Auto 4x4 in town, 4WD High on the icy winter hiway no problem! (4x4 Auto tends to lose a bit of traction on the rears before the fronts kick in, you feel the jerking, which at HI way speed is not a good idea, so 4wd high with front wheels locked in, is safer overall when its icy IMO)
I ran winter tires most my life, but picked this Rebel up in October, I have not considered winter tires at all and we have had a brutal winter.
Yes there is some road noise, as to be expected with an off-road style tire, but its a small price to pay to have decent tires that work well on and off the road.
