Tires grip excellent in dry and wet, however the noise at high speed is a little bit loud.
I've driven with these tires around 40k km and now the tread depth is 1,5 millimeters.

Only 16000 miles out of the front pair. I drive a Hyundai Tuscon Sport. Wheel spin a big issue when puking away and I am not a boy racer at 69. I consider them noisy and I am never confident of the handling. Due to buy some new tires but they won't be Continentals.

Advantages: very short dry braking distance, very good feel when driving in wet conditions.

Disadvantage: fuel consumption is high comparing with Yokohama which was originally on the car.

Other: Road feedback could be better especially at higher speed. At the beginning the tires are very quiet. Later they become noisy.

Tires fitted by manufacturer when vehicle purchased.
Useless in the snow we had in the winter. Had to abandon the vehicle and go back when snow melting ie not packed hard on road. Very disappointed to have to replace fronts after only 27000 miles!
