Bought 4 new tires for my Mitsubishi Galant and used them for 2017 summer (2000 km).
The ride is pretty quiet, it handle ok. When cornering I feel the car unstable like sliding said way, or like driving on a waved asphalt. However I have never skidded.
The traction on dry and wet is good but not excellent. I have been reading that after a while they get better, but didn't use them too much, so I don't know if that's real or not.
The grip is good on both dry and wet road, never had problems when braking hard.
Does not seems to wear out quickly.

Comfortable and quiet tires. Excellent wear and dry grip, good steering feeling, nice design. IMHO safe on wet roads but nothing to die for. On wet conditions, when they are pushed to the limit, they loose lateral grip gradually so there is no unpredictable behavior. Recommended!

Very nice tires. I've being pushing them in curvy mountain roads a lot, they hold well, better in dry, a little worse, but still good in wet.

I've had these tires for nearly 5 years and 20000 miles. They've still got 5mm of tread. So they are wearing very well. The dry grip is excellent and the wet grip is pretty good too. When new they were quiet and comfortable, but they have got noisier as they get older, and the rubber gets harder.
I would buy thses tires again.

Drove 100,000 km in hot weather dubai. Try grip is incredibly good. But fuel economy is low.
The tires r not noisy still after 100k km.
Thinking to keep them till 130k.

This tire is amazing .. After Nokian and Uniroyal RE3, super positively surprised comfort, softness and good tire durability .. Tire in dry and wet as adhesion to the substrate, which is great .. For aggressive driving have no complaints, the first and the right tires ! Who buys this cheap and very quality-tire, can feel it provides the right to his sports car if such there ..
Tire for every recommendation!
Fit Sportrac 5 and enjoy ..

I bough these to replace my very worn Conti Premium Contact 5's as the conti's were £46 a corner and these were £24, but got better test results.
I drive my cars on the limit most of the time out of traffic, I go through a set of summers in a year even swapping front to back, so I'm a "spirited driver".
These seem just as good as the Conti's so far in comfort and shock absorbtion (I have to use an unadopted road on my commute) and take the punishment I give them (potholes at 30-40 mph).
I'm not sure if it's the sidewalls or tread, but the car seems slightly more nervous on quick changes of direction compared to the Conti's, but not in a way to stop me pushing as they seem progressive and don't bite, even in the wet.
In standing water and heavy weather they've been brilliant, better than the Conti's.
They have also improved my "lap time" from my mate's house to mine, shaving a minute off my 11 minute record vs the Conti's, but that could be just because they're new.
If prices stay the same, I'd recommend these as the best for your VAG Golf/Leon/A3 etc as they're just as good if not better in some situations, but 40% cheaper

I have these on the front of my street legal drift car. Grip couldn't be better as I've never experienced any understeer in any condition with these tires. However, they wear scary quick. I also drive it to and from local events, but mostly it's trailered to the track, but they still wear very fast. I will definitely buy these again though, since I know for sure that they WILL grip, rain or shine. I'll have to go for a lower profile, however, since they grip so hard that they roll over on the sidewall sometimes (heatmarks on the sidewalls).
