Though sold as "all season" M+S rated tires, the milestar ms932xp+ has dangerously poor traction on even minor snow accumulations. While driving on a flat paved state road that had 1/4 inch or less fresh snow and minimal/no treatment, in a late model AWD crossover SUV with 245/45R-19 tires, the milestar tires had dangerously poor traction. Any acceleration, no matter how slow, resulted in wheelspin and lateral movement of the vehicle with traction/stability control engagement. Even minimal braking pressure resulted in full ABS engagement. Braking distances were extremely long. The performance of these tires was not consistent with any other all-season M+S rated tire I've used, and was more consistent with a "summer" tire. Selling these tires as "all season M+S" is misleading and dangerous.
