<p>Still nice and quiet. I do notice slight reduction in traction on extremely wet days (8/10 compared to 10/10 before). Im at half wear point after 45000km. One time moved between front and back.</p>

Tyres are still great. Can't notice any degrading in performance yet. There is maybe the slightest increase in road noise but still very quiet. Had some snow in the winter and it performed superb there.

The grip and braking distance are excellent on both dry and wet surfaces. I can't comment on snowy and icy conditions as I haven't used them there. The quietness is better than any tire I've ever used. I can also say they're excellent in terms of comfort and appearance. I've been driving for 36 years and I change my winter/summer tires every year. This time I took off my summer tires for the last time and from now on I will always use Ion Flexclimate. It's a perfect choice for both summer and winter.

This is a very good tyre. Before this, I had a Michelin Crossclimate 2 - and that was also a good tyre. Now, I think and feel, Hankook is better. I know, the Crossclimate 3 is out now, but I could not buy that, when I bought the Hankook. My Long Range Tesla is a rear wheel drive, more than 300LE, and it is amazing, how balanced this tyre. In Dry and Wet environment, the Flexclimate feels like one of the best of any tyre I tried. Had to tell, I could not try in Ice and Snow yet, but I am looking forward to check that.
