Had to replace it pretty early due to a sidewall bump but these budget had very good dry grip when I first purchased it. However with wear the grip falls off quicker than expected, I wouldn't recommend trusting it in the wet. Pretty bad in terms of Comfort and Noise. If you need some cheap tires with good grip temporarily until you get something, these will do the job.

First, I'm not confident for the China made tire after too many rumors heard from online and offline. When comes to tire replacing time, I choose to give it a try all because of the costing matter. The all-in cost of a tire I bought that made in PRC are almost 1x times lower than the Bridgestone Turanza retail price in Malaysia. After 1500km traveled and tested, first I realized the steering feedback are excellent for the front wheel. Even though only two pics of it for the front wheel, the braking for both dry and wet surface shown good result. The cabin sound slightly higher than before maybe it generates from the thick tread of SA37 which I'm not mind. At this trip I tried high-speed cornering when downhill, the grip are way better then before. Not much different on the ride comfort. After 10000km I'll rotate the front and rear wheel to test on the acceleration due to my car are a heavy duty rear wheel drive platform.

Pretty amazing how they are. I bought these tires because I thought I would change the car soon, so why to spent a lot of money?..., but after a couple of month using them, they perfomed really good. Not tasted in wet or winter conditions, so waiting for that. In dry they are awesome. Of course I did not change the car yet...
