Initial Impressions

Wet Grip: horrible. No matter what, even on a damp road, the tires spin when you set off.
I haven’t tried pushing them in corners when damp or wet, because I can tell that it wouldn’t end well.
Dry Grip: it’s okay. Nothing more than that.

Noise: there is a good deal of road noise in the cabin.

Bought an XF with new tires on it hadn't heard of them but as I had bought the car in Spring, my thought was keep them on and if poor in wet ( not many tires nowadays are dangerous in dry) can change them in winter. All I can say is that I find them no worse than Kumho, Hankook, Landsail and any number of medium/budget brands till now. I have only had car for 7 months and probably about 4k mls but I won't be changing them. I have given 6's for most qualities mainly because the tire's are not Michelin/Goodyear quality but subjectively some of those could be 7's. Would I buy them again? not sure that will depend on how long they last, price and how they perform as they wear. Last word is I drive the car and don't even think about the tire's except when checking pressure
