I have used the tire for now 43000km and still has tread which can last till 50000km probably. Grip at after 40000km is still strong.

Fitment comes from each tire's manufactured size list, and the sizes are the ones drivers reported when they reviewed. Check the size, load index and speed rating on your own doorplate before buying - a size a previous owner ran is not always the size your car left the factory on.

Initial review. Transparent handling and typical Touring tire qualities.
Affordable Price and starting tread depth of around 7.2mm.
Practical wear indicator
Very reassuring on Initial test on wet roads at around 20°C and about 2mm of water.
In depth Review will follow.

They are great for the price as they can cover lots of distance with minimal wear. I drove with them on ice, snow, wet and damp roads and even in the +35°C in summer. They are OK in all conditions, but they perform the best in the cold and wet, or on easy snow. Big levels of snow or ice makes them perform average, as they slip like any other tire. In the dry, you can drive a bit spirited using them but they overheat fast and lose grip.
This tire is an OK all rounder for the cold months but dont expect ultra performance out of them.
They were cheap, look good, sound good, feel good, would buy again.
Very pleased with my choice. The tires are true all weather. Warm up very fast and they have plenty of grip dry and wet. Snow grip is just awesome. With a simple 2WD hatch i managed to pass alot of roads with heavy snow for alot of km when other vehicles were facing difficulties even with snow chains.And all that was done smoothly and easy. Even on icy surface didnt let me down.
Price was also the lowest 200euros installed. I would definitely buy them again.

Hard wearing tire - only changed due to hitting pothole. Got 37k out of two front tires
I'm really happy with the grip on these tires, bought 4 new ones, been driving them for a while now, today was raining and I was deliberately breaking hard on wet road and no skidding at all. Quiter than my last ones I had (wanli/primewell - front/back) and comfier too... not as good as the Firestone I had, but for the price range class, they are defenitely good buy.
After 1000 km (almost half in wet conditions) only positive impressions.
Very nice and comfortable tire on dry. Marginally more noisy than the Goodyear Excellence which the car was wearing. This does not mean that it is noisy. Quite the contrary as the Excellence remain the quietest tire I've ever see. Good levels of grip in the wet.
If performance does not fall sharply in maybe you are talking about the best budget tire of the market
