Anyone have experience with the Uniroyal Tiger Paw Touring tires? There is a set available locally for $250 and I'm thinking I might hop on them since the tires on my Forester are about due for replacement. They have pretty good reviews online, but I wonder what my trusted Subaru advisers have to say particularly about soft-roading and snow performance.

 

They're 215/70/16 if that matters to anyone.

I am not familiar with the Uniroyal Tiger Paws. However, since you state they are Touring tires, they are at their best on dry clean roads. I am guessing the tread pattern is non chunky, prolly with many straight lines, with few cross pattern cuts, which is typical of Touring tires. Driving soft-road and in the snow would be a challenge for the Tiger Paws.

The price is certainly good, but count on sliding around some on these tires, when the weather turns bad.

Ran them On my Corolla but it never saw snow and they were ok otherwise

They won't do as well as a mud/snow rated tire, and they won't come close to what a dedicated snow tire will do, but they'll be Ok for light snow, especially with the Subaru AWD.

They'll go just fine.

Stopping will be the difficult part.
