Yep, where your arbitrary 90% applies, I’d say it’s but 60% for me living in the mountains. Icey, snow packed roads are commonplace here. And while there is a noticeable lack of performance cornering on dry with studded, not too bothered when in the most dangerous of road conditions I have the best tire.
Only time I notice the grinding road noise, is at low speeds with window down. Otherwise it’s been virtually unnoticeable for me. I should record a cabin video, and then again when I put the summers on.
