I fitted these tires two months ago and drove them for about 5000 miles on different types of roads, from city traffic to highways. I find the tires to be very quiet, although they came to replace some pretty much worn-out Michelin RFTs so my feeling might be a little biased.
Although I didn't get to drive them in winter temps yet, they seem to stick to the road very well for summer driving. They felt planted at speeds up to 120 mph (didn't take them further than that so can't tell), but a little slippery in corner acceleration on twisty roads, particularly on hot tarmac.
I am not worried about winter performance as I've run Vredesteins before and I trust the brand mainly for winter capabilities.
Overall I find them reasonable as a year-round alternative and will wait to see if I can get more than a year's worth out of them.
