Took ages for me to find a decent set of tires on a budget but went for these instead of real cheap ones due to safety in the wet. Had continental sport contacts on the car originally which were superb all round and would love to have had them again so these in comparison don't do too bad considering price. Not had them long enough to comment on wear but for all other areas this tire does the job. Not amazing but you feel safer and more confident than the cheap brands you never heard of. Comments mentioned about the noise is true, they are a bit more noisier than others but you can't have everything if you don't pay for it so I can settle with these purely for the what you get for your money. Very pleased.

I previously had used 2 sets of the older HPX GT Tires, they were very good in all conditions, I recently had a pair of the new UHP1 tires fitted on the front, in most areas they are good. In the recent snow, approx 30-50 mm deep they gave very little traction, the worst issue with them is that they are very sensitive to changes in road camber something the older HPX tires did not seem as affected by. Not sure I would purchase further GT tires for this application.

Not worth the effort, grip is above what you would expect from a low price tire but the wear rate and noise level makes this tire a waste of money. 5000 miles from the rear (drive tires) and only 6000 from the front.
