Very good tire grip is excellent wear seems to be the same as every other make I’ve used for 50 years of driving a lot of different cars the best tires that I’ve ever used was the Michelin ZX lasted for ever good grip in wet and dry and snow perhaps they discontinued them because they were just too good

Changed from Conti as fitted when new.
Much more comfortable and give better handling - but Oh dear - the fuel consumption down from 62 to 55 mpg. Back to Contis I feel next time

Never gave me any concern on failry gently driven supermini used mainly locally. Tires wore fairly quickly even after being rotated front to back - lasted 18K. However they performed well in snow and ice through two bd UK winters so I suppose that's the upside of softish compound that wears quickly.

Wear much higher than expected. Worst aspect is the tire noise on anything other than the smoothest of roads. There are better alternatives and at lower cost.

Very disappointing tire, after 10000 miles all four tires needed replacing, not even driven very hard, mainly motorway and dual carriage way. Then changed to Continentals and got 20000 miles out of the front, the rear has still got plenty of tread, much superior tire.

Very soft compound tire that grips well but at expense of wear - 8000 miles and only 3.5mm of tread on fronts. I do not drive hard and am surprised at high wear rate
