Primewell tires sold at firestone are advertised as all season. I bought these tires in feb 2010. On dec 26th 2010, we had a snowstorm in hampton area. I had to go out and found out the tires have absolutely no traction on snow. These tires are dangerous for winter conditions. I lost control of the vehicle several times. On the way home, I was going approximately 15mph when all four tires loss traction due to a 15 to 20 MPH wind and ended up in a ditch. The next day I replaced the tires with kelly explorer tires and had no trouble negotiating the snow. These tires need to be pulled from the market or a warning given to consumers. They also lose traction on wet roads easily. As stated, they are advertised as " tires deliver all-season traction ".
