If you hate the feeling you can go for a more performance oriented winter tire (Continental Winter Contact, Pirelli Sottozero etc) and you maintain a lot more dry handling at the sacrifice of a bit of the winter capabilities.
Yeah, I think I was experiencing the pull that some of the other guys were mentioning. Doing 100kph on Deerfoot just felt funny. I am hoping it is something I get used to with these tires. I don't remember this with the Hankook Ice Bears. I will see how these work out though this winter. Hoping to do some trips out west to Kelowna and Vancouver.
