Average in the dry and quite dangerous in the wet. They lose grip very easily.

I agree with the Runaway comment. These just spin up pulling out of a junction anymore than on idle and lose traction in the corners. They were fitted when I bought the car and have done about 4k miles on them but am taking them off as the roads get wetter as they are boarder line dangerous.

I noticed the tire model changes frequently perhaps to avoid long-term reviews. These should be called 'runaway' tires. They are attractively cheap they perform a little below average and quite tolerable in the dry but in the wet they lose all traction and feel quite dangerous so I would never buy them again they are simply not cheap enough.

Replaced my original equipment Continentals with Runway 926. These lasted just as long as the Continental (16,000 miles) and provided good grip.
Would recommend for sure at this price point.

Purchased as a budget tire, I was pleased with the dry & wet performance.
Due to the surprisingly good performance, I pushed the car quite hard around corners & roundabouts and wore the outsides of the tires pretty quick - so the lowish mileage was probably my fault.

I would definitely buy again if buying on a budget.
