These tires came on a set of alloy wheels I wanted for my Workmate -Straight away I got an uneasy feeling going into a corner 60klms so not fast & I could feel the rear start to crab. These tires are just plain dangerous even on dry roads -In the wet ,I had to slow so much it was embarrassing otherwise I felt the vehicle would loose control .Any sort of cornering is terrifying DO NOT under any circumstances buy these tires .I have had over 40 years of driving on all sorts of rural & highway situations & have never had a more frightening experience like these tires have given me

cracked and weather worn in 36 mths? made of nylon and polyester? absolute bad handling whether wet, dry or indifferent, have no ''wear'' to speak of but are giving way in the ''steel'' belt. DEFINATELY DO NOT TAKE ANY PASSENGERS, IF YOU WANT TO RISK YOUR OWN LIFE THAT'S DIFFERENT...

Dangerous on wet roads. Wheel slip on our Mazda 626 front wheel drive car

We need to drive slowly and use our other car if it rains. Don't buy, we need to replace them even though they are not worn out. Bad idea, was not helped by the tire retailer.

I had those fitted on car when I have bought it.

Not bad on dry road, but grip goes down when wet and temp. is around 10 C.
1/2 of thread is gone and I have to change due to rain.
