Initial Impressions
I have had this model of tires on 2 different cars, but this review is based on my latest car which has just had them replaced. I purchased these as they had received very good test results when compared to around 50 or so peers, especially Aquaplaning where they came 2nd beating several premium brand tires. In fact the only aspect they performed badly in was Tire Wear where they were just slightly better than Avon ZV7s on that aspect. My car is underpowered but is shod with low profile tires which means that it corners really well and there are a couple of tight motorway exits which I love to accelerate on to test their grip limits. Never did they fail me in either Wet or dry conditions even when they were getting close to their tread limits. I would definitely recommend them and would buy them again because they are such good value for money, but suggest they are best for the rear wheels on FWD cars to maximise their longevity.
