I got these tires for off-road driving in snow, so this is what my review concentrates on.
I consider them good, but not quite great on snow and ice. They will probably outperform most other tires in these conditions, but I think a top-end winter tire would do better. My main complaint is that their lateral grip seems a bit lacking on snow and ice.
I have a second vehicle with Hankook Dynapro AT M tires, and the Geolandar I/T G072 tires get better grip on snow and ice. Having helped dozens of vehicles get unstuck from the snow (this is what I do for fun), I'm confident in saying that the Geolandar I/T G072 tires get somewhat better traction in snow than most all-terrain tires, and much better traction in snow than most mud-terrain tires.
On the pavement, they do fine, and they aren't too noisy. But, I don't ever push them hard on pavement, so I can't really say much about this.
