My Yaris with 257.800+ miles was poor In the turns with other tires, cause the car is not made to make turns and the springs and some parts are stopped to work good. So I changed tires and tried this Toyo wich works good in the wet and are very comfortable, more than previous tire sized in 175/65 r14. Handling is ok, not the best and not the worst, but for the price I paid is a good result. The best things about this tire in my Yaris are the comfort on bad roads and the life very very good.
