Year / Model Reviewed:
2006 Volvo V-50 T5 AWD w/REVO 1's

Strengths:
grip, confidence, great looks (mounted on black steel (cop) wheels...bad!

Weaknesses:
tread wear

Summary:
I live on top of a 800 foot ridge with shear drop-off on either side of the road. Every winter someone tests gravity and their sense of self by driving down this road with their "low-profile" summer tires. Even with all wheel drive, this road is challenging. Now that I use the Bridgestone Revo 1's I can laugh at the ice and snow... My Volvo has a 6 speed manual and I just drop it into 2nd and let the engine take me down the hill. No more white knuckle moments!
