Most customers give high scores (7-10) for wet traction, with many 9s and 10s praising reliable grip. A few note lower scores (0-6), indicating some concerns in heavy rain.

...So far previous wet driving has been superb...
The tires came on the vehicle when leased in NE. I have never driven in a NE winter, but the tires handled well in light snow. Currently, driving in the AZ heat and surprised to say the tires are handling well in the heat and highway driving. I am looking at replacing them before this year's monsoon season. So far previous wet driving has been superb. I have not had a rough ride or road noise due to the tire.

...Great on wet roads. Confident driving through puddles at highway speeds(or 5-10 mph less)...
Tire came stock with my Forester- Well built tire. I would purchase again but the price point for the amount of thread life I think is too high. Plowed through 2 feet of fresh snow and was even able to go up the mountain in a snow storm. Car slid on full ice, no grip at all- But ice patches or ice with snow/dirt/rocks, these tires found traction. Great on wet roads. Confident driving through puddles at highway speeds(or 5-10 mph less). So-so on dry traction- I feel like the AWD system made the tires feel like they had better traction.
This review is from Seattle. We went up on the slopes the first year of this car mostly every weekend in the season. Drove on the wet/dry sands of Ocean Shores and went on one or two forest roads to cut down a Christmas tree. This tire can do it.

I was all over the East Coast last summer on every kind of dirt road there is and these were quiet and gripped the road perfectly in all sorts of nasty conditions. Rain, mud, water, etc.
I have 2 Subaru Foresters. My 2013 has the Geolanders on it. I haven't driven in deep snow, but I live in Colorado, so I would put snows on for deep snow. I was all over the East Coast last summer on every kind of dirt road there is and these were quiet and gripped the road perfectly in all sorts of nasty conditions. Rain, mud, water, etc. I am impressed because these tires are the perfect mix of off road and highway, which also equates into great gas mileage. It has the perfect tread for both and does well with both types of road. I've had beefy off road tires on my other subie, and the mileage dropped a lot (23 mpg highway, plus I was in Canada and paying $6/gal, so $75 to fill up). I have a little over 25K on these, lots of tread left, will easily get 50K and I like that the tire is versatile because I'm always exploring different places and go on wilderness dirt roads where I need traction and grip but also need the gas mileage. I hesitate to put beefy tires on my subies again since the mileage drops so radically. I'm a little more aware of staying light for the gas mileage. I already have 4 new Geolanders that I got a deal on. Love the versatility... and the gas mileage... Happy road tripping and exploring!! I think these are the perfect mix for me.

Customers report strong snow performance with most scoring 7-10, but note mixed ice traction with some ratings 0-6. Suitable for intended all-season winter use.
Customers praise the Geolandar H/T G95A's dry traction, with most scoring 9s-10s for confident grip and responsive handling. Some scores between 7-8 note reliable performance in highway conditions.
Customers praise the Geolandar H/T G95A's ride comfort and low noise, with most scoring 7-10. Some note higher noise levels (scores 0-6), but overall satisfaction remains strong for highway driving.

...They are quiet on the road and have been a comfortable tire...
These tires came on my Forester. I think overall I have been pleased with them. I would have liked to get more miles on them, before changing, but overall I am satisfied with them. They are quiet on the road and have been a very comfortable tire. I use my car for work in construction sites and trails, so they have done pretty well off road as well as on the highway. These are a nice option, but I chose a different model to replace them with, because of price, warranty and customer rating.

...Road noise has been very low and the wear seems to be going well.
These are the OEM tires on my 2014 XV Crosstrek. They've generally been an all-around great tire; paired with AWD I have only ever felt slipping under deep mud or snow. Starting and stopping on ice feels a bit better than other tires I've had on cars. Wet traction is superior, however hitting puddles at higher speeds does rebound with some hydroplaning. Road noise has been very low and the wear seems to be going well.

Customers praise treadwear with many 9s and 10s, noting long-lasting performance. However, some report scores between 0-6 indicating premature wear concerns, suggesting variability in durability experiences.

...They are a fine all season tire, got great mileage out of them. 50k and still are not at wear bars or anything...
I feel like my only real complaint is the price. They really are too much, you can get alot of other tires for cheaper. They are a fine all season tire, got great mileage out of them. 50k and still are not at wear bars or anything. Really cant complain, but i would say you can do better price wise.
Snow traction is really good when the tread depth is high, deteriorates fast when the tread goes down. They are all season so can't expect winter tires. They are good all seasons, good at everything excellent at nothing as a true all season tire is. Its a jack of all trades.

...While most of my driving is highway, I currently have 70,000 miles on these tires and should get 80,000 no problem...
These OEM tires perform better then fair for most road conditions. But where this tire really shines is in tread life.While most of my driving is highway, I currently have 70,000 miles on these tires and should get 80,000 no problem. Great commute tire.

...The 1st set I got an unbelievable 82,000 miles out of. I could have pushed them even farther but I didn't want to go through winter on the old ones... But getting almost 85,000 out of OEM tires is great I think...
This is my 2nd set of these tires as they were what came on my car when I bought it new. The 1st set I got an unbelievable 82,000 miles out of. I could have pushed them even farther but I didn't want to go through winter on the old ones. I mostly drive back and forth to work on these tires, 60 mile round trip commute. I couldn't believe how well the tires [old set] held the road in wet and rain without hydroplaning. But, the last 5,000 miles or so the road noise was getting pretty loud. So I had no problem buying the same set of tires once the od ones wore out.
I have to say that the new set of tires are much louder than the original set. I don't know why and they aren't as loud as the original set were for the last 3000 miles of their life but I don't remember the original set being any where this loud. I'm hoping it goes away after some time maybe when the tread wears down some. But getting almost 85,000 out of OEM tires is great I think. I could have gone with cheaper tires but then I'd just have to replace them sooner and I feel like that's more expensive due to installation/balancing/stems/alignment costs.
I drive fast going straight but always have made a conscious effort to not corner like a maniac and make sure there is no noises coming from the tires. I have trip-tronic transmission so I always down shift as I'm braking or just use the engine for braking as long as no one is right on my tail. I also have 85,000 miles the original brakes to give you an idea of how easy I am on brakes, although they're just about ready to be replaced so my results might not be typical but I've read reviews of people getting the same mileage out of their Geolanders and even more on the site.
