Observe GSi-5

Considered the best overall studless snow tire available, the Observe GSi-5 delivers a safe, secure ride in challenging conditions, even slushy, snowy, rutted roads. With sizes for passenger cars, light trucks, crossovers and SUVs, this winter tire has a directional tread design for stability and improved traction during braking and acceleration. Large, saw-toothed tread blocks and the ultimate in siping technology ensure maximum grip for cornering and stopping. The specialized rubber contains walnut shell for added snow and ice traction and remains soft in extreme cold. Wide lateral grooves clear slush out of the tread with efficiency for greater control. Owners of the Observe GSi-5 rate it above other winter tires they’ve tried, and praise its extended tread wear, the way it bulldozes through snow conditions, and the smooth ride. This is a tire for the driver who wants confident winter handling no matter what’s happening with the weather.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good heavy duty tires! This is my second set. The first set made me feel very secure, so I bought the same kind again.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Winter tires make a difference Wow, these winter tires are amazing. I got them installed just in time for some major snow storms here in the Columbia River Gorge. I’ve driven on the interstate, up to Mt. Hood, and on other snowy mountain roads with no issues. I’ve run all terrain tires with the 3PMSF symbol in winters past. The difference between those and a true winter tire is night and day. With these winter tires on, I have complete confidence driving in winter conditions and feel like I couldn’t make my car skid even if I wanted to. These tires do seem a bit squirmy on dry pavement, but I assume that’s typical of winter tires. I really can’t say enough about these tires. I think they are just about perfect for winter driving. Makes me wish I lived in an area where the snow sticks around longer!
