...As far as snow and wet traction goes, these are solid performers. there is some hydro planning/understeer if you push too hard in the corners, but regular driving, the car is gripping with all its might...
I am a bit of a car enthusiast, and as such, like to push my car hard in different environments. These tires are amazing for the price. My car is FWD, and these tires really help eliminate understeer at speed. Even when cornering hard, there's been almost no noticeable understeer. I plan on getting a set of these for my Evolution VIII, I like them that much! As far as snow and wet traction goes, these are still solid performers. there is some hydro planning/understeer if you push too hard in the corners, but regular driving, the car is gripping with all its might. All in all, this a fantastic tire for the price you pay. highly recommended for someone on a budget!

I bought four and am amazed at how it handles in the rain. I can make turns in wet weather that would have landed me on a guard rail just two months ago on the Eagles. I purposely hit a puddle on a straight piece of road and there was none of the hydroplaning...
I have had two new Galant's and each come with the Goodyear Eagle RS/A. Wet traction with the Eagle was dangerous after 10,000 miles. I have a new driver in my family and decided to swap these out even though there was plenty of tread. I was concerned about Laufeen because there were no reatings for it anywhere. I found that Hankook created a new brand of "No frills" tires at a reasonable price. I bought four and am amazed at how the S FIT AS XL handles in the rain. I can make turns in wet weather that would have landed me on a guard rail just two months ago on the Eagles. I purposely hit a puddle on a straight piece of road and there was none of the hydroplaning. The tire is much quieter than the Eagle but it does have a strange (but not annoying) singing sound (nothing like the stone crusher sound of the Eagles). I had to hit the brakes hard and was so surprised at how quickly the car stopped. The Eagles would have caused the ABS to step in but the Laufeen's just wrestled the Galant to a stop. The ride is so much smoother that my kids even spoke up about it. Not only are the jitters the Eagles created gone but bumps in the road have disappeared.
I will say, though, that on a dry day - the Eagles would have outrun the S Fit because of the abuse they could take in cornering but the S Fit would catch up on the straightaway because you need far less input to keep the car going straight.
I am anxious to see how these wear and what other types of tires Laufeen will bring out next (this is it's first tire from the new factory in the USA) so I can put them on our Van and Jetta. I love this tire. Give it a shot. I know its scary purchasing a tire on its first time out but you will be very happy.
I absolutely love this tire.

...Wet roads are uninteresting with these tires, they just work...
I did not buy these tires, the dealer installed them on our used Renegade. I was not pleased and figured I'd replace them shortly with something "good". Instead, I will be keeping them.
I've driven them on dry, wet, snow and ice and they are good tires, not just for the remarkable price, but good tires period. The Renegade was not purchased for performance driving (we have other vehicles for that), but with the Laufenn S FIT AS tires it can be pushed quite hard in corners and is a lot of fun. Wet roads are uninteresting with these tires, they just work. No, it's not a snow tire but it performs as well as an all-season can be expect to. If you know at all how to drive in snow you will get home.
Given the way they's performed so far, if they hold up (don't get lumpy, etc), I won't even look at anything else when it's time to replace them.

The Laufenn S FIT AS earns excellent winter grip ratings, with many customers scoring 9s and 10s for snow traction and confident handling in snow. While some noted reduced ice performance (scores 5-7), most praise its all-season winter capability.

...Well to my surprise these tires performance in the wet, snow and ice performed above my expectations. After 6K miles and some real snow fall in the Chicago land area, I have nothing but positive things to say about these tires... They handled those snow days with ease...
I bought these tires for the winter to replace my summer only Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires. I wrestled with should I go all season or winter tires? Looking at the price of most of the winter tires, I went with the all seasons, knowing by spring I would mount the summers back on the car. So I went with the more budget priced Laufenn S Fit AS. Well to my surprise these tires performance in the wet, snow and ice performed above my expectations. After 6K miles and some real snow fall in the Chicago land area, I have nothing but positive things to say about these tires. On my Focus ST they handled everything I threw at them. The ride is quiet and controlled. They handled those snow days with ease and the noise levels are extremely low. I could go on and on but I think you get the picture. I would highly recommend these tires and would purchase them again without hesitation. Your experience my very on a different car with a different suspension set up.

Most customers rate dry traction as excellent, with scores of 9-10 highlighting responsive handling and reliable grip. A few 7-8 scores still reflect strong all-season performance.

...They perform well in wet and in dry environments...
The tires are a good deal. They perform well in wet and dry environments. I have not tried in snow or ice as I use a winter set instead for those conditions. The negative is going to really come down to road noise. These tires are noticeably louder than the Toyo A36 tires I replaced. NOTICEABLY. Comfort I rated as average. Everything else about handling, wear, and overall performance I rated above average in the 8 category. I would probably buy again because of the price and performance, but dang they are loud tires.

...These tires hold the road in curves very well on dry and wet pavement...
I got these tires on sale and was skeptical because it was such a good deal, but they seem to ride well and there is not much road noise at all. I drive 45 miles to work every day, 25 miles on the highway and the rest on winding country roads in rural WV. These tires hold the road in curves very well on dry and wet pavement, have not tried them in snow yet, but that will be happening soon. I will probably buy these tires again even if they are not on sale.

...They continually surprise me with their grip, comfortableness and wet weather handling...
I was initially skeptical of these tires. However, they are some of the best tires that I have bought for the price. They continually surprise me with their grip, comfortableness and wet weather handling. Never before has a been tire this good, and so cheap! I have driven them in the rain great on the dry great. And I am now considering buying them for my Volvo. By the way yes, the van is lowered. About an inch. And it handles great.

I bought this one tire as a full size spare for my Mazda CX-5. A full size tire fits in the same space as the donut! I used the “spare” for about 3,000 miles on the rear to break it in and test how it performs. I’m impressed with the performance of this tire and the great value.

I saved a lot of money with this choice and I doubt I will wear them out before its time for new ones.
I admittedly have not driven these tires hard but I could not have been happier with them so far. I don't put slot of miles on this car, maybe 1500 a year and avoid rainy days but when I drive its on winding country roads and these were quiet and handled very well. I saved a lot of money with this choice and I doubt I will wear them out before its time for new ones.
