I agree with the above comments. I was unfortunate enough to inherit 2 on a Legend. Needless to say these Linglongs got no love you linglong time from me!

The wear is good only because they are made from what appears to be graphite ... and it grips as if they were made as such!

So damned frightening that my sphincter muscles really got a good workout.

As you may have noticed these tires are terrible! If you value your life spend a bit more money, because in the wet these tires are extremely dangerous, I had these tires on my car because the person i bought the car from thought he was doing me a favor by putting on 4 new tires! THESE TYRES ARE DANGEROUS, and i would never recommend them to anyone even if they were £10 each.
Don't attempt roundabouts or anything that looks like a corner if it's even slightly damp, in the dry it's only slightly better. and they wear very quickly on my t5 anyway.

Awful in the dry, positively dangerous in the wet.

The only reason i gave it 1 star in the wet was because i couldnt give 0.
They do last quite well asuming you havent crashed your car before they wear out.
progressiveness of them is practically non existent, they either will turn in or the wont usually the latter.
Its hard to interpret the feed back when your having a white nucle ride.
The only reason i gave it 2stars in the dry grip was because i couldnt give it 0 in the wet.
i left comfort clear as who would find driving with the above comfortable?
buy again? never

too hard, poor grip in the wet, definitely not uying again. On sharp turns there was a major issue of lift-off oversteer, even on roundabouts in the wet. I'm not a particularly harsh driver but these are a definite no-no. Very hard compound, almost no wear after 5000 miles. Quite noisy too. Only real plus is how they look. They're cheap for a reason!
