My initial feelings are that these tires offer very good levels of grip in the dry, the initial turn in is not that sharp (I went for the 91Y the 94Y may be slightly better) but once turning there is better feel and more communicative adjustability. In the wet, again there are high levels of grip and a relatively better feel, they have slightly higher tendancy to aquaplane than I was expecting but overall a very safe and grippy tire. One big bonus is that they are very comfortable although this is usually low on my priorities. They are soft so I am not expecting a long life from them.

This are amazing tires. The grip is great at both dry and wet conditions. I think the sidewalls of this tires should be stiffer. Im also worried about the wear, the rubber is so soft that probably they will not last long. The overall result is Excelent!

An amayzing tire in every sense. Excellent grip on dry & wet road. It has a great progressiveness. Very good comfort and very low rolling resistance. They are quiet (with very low levels of noise) and wear well. So, I think that will last much more than other sports tires. Highly recommended.
