Fitted to my 407 sw but I was unaware that this was a summer tire at the time. Within a week of fitting and after around 200 miles we had a few days of rain. On several occasions I found the car slipping and sliding around corners/roundabouts at speeds of just 20-25 mph. I now intead to get my money back.
