OE tire supplied on MX5 ND 1.5.
Steering feedback was really good as well as dry grip, but please note that the car was at 6000 miles (10000km) when i purchased it so i don't really now how these V105 performs when they are new
Dry grip on spring-summer days was very good, but these tires loves to have a little bit of heat in them to perform accordingly
I did one track session and they held up well, no roll over, sidewall is pretty firm for an UHP tire. When they let go, they start to squeal a little bit and you can feel the limit without them being snappy or dangerous. Really enjoyable behavior
Of course it's not a dedicated track tire but they are fun if you just want to enjoy your car without being too serious/competitive about it
Wet grip is average and not really on par with modern UHP tires (think PS5 or GYA6) but it is kinda expected, these tires have been released a long time ago now.
Wet grip is acceptable if you drive according to weather and road condition, but they do not feel to have a lot of safety margin
They can be a little bit jiggly on poor roads but not that bad overall
At the end of their life (more or less 2,5mm) , dry grip was still very good but wet performance started to become a little bit sketchy despite temperature being around 20°C. I lost the car twice, one time on a big puddle and one time just accelerating straight without being reckless so i throw them away after that
Can't comment on winter use cause i have dédicated winter tires but i guess they should not be that great
Mileage done : 16000 miles or 25000km with one rotation front to back done
In short : very good dry grip, sharp steering response, wet behavior is average at 50% of their life and pretty bad at the end
Will buy again because 16' tire size suck and it will not get better
