Well, I have driven them on wet and icy roads, but the only other tires I can compare them with are the worn out KM1's I had on before them. They do better than those did...
All tires slip on ice, though

It is all about sipping. Since these tires have little sipping I dont think they would do to well. Decent but not well. I run my super swampers on icy roads. But I know how to drive with them too.....

I love my KM2s in the snow can't run them at full pressuer though drop about 10psi out of them and the do a lot better in the snow. Ice no tire dose well on ice unless its cut to hell or studded
