Dry grip is good as long as the surface is good and it is reasonably warm. Most of the roads i drive are backroads, seldomly smooth and are undulating. Even when dry and warm, the grip and balance could be significantly better. In fairness, on dual carriageways, motorways and even decent A roads the dry handling is good and dry braking is controlled and predictable.
Wet grip, however, is not good. Neither is wet braking. Also, susceptible to aquaplaning.
Winter driving is very poor. Grip is poor, braking is terrible. The tires feel totally inadequate for winter driving even when there is no snow or ice. They certainly don’t impart any confidence.
Wear is reasonable although the front tires did wear faster than expected. Rolling resistance seems good. Comfort (and grip, balance and control) depends on road type. It is good on A roads, dual carriageways but sometimes seems to scrabble for grip on bumpy roads and comfort is affected.
