Supplied with Tiguan R 2023. These tires drive well and brake well in the dry. Please disregard my ratings in the wet as I have not used them in the wet and I have not had them long enough to comment on wear. They are horribly noisy. Loud drone at low speeds depending on road surface. Absolute howl at highway speeds. I really dislike these tires and will get rid of them very soon. Would never buy them again.

I am not a high performance driver. I am driving with 110-120 km/h maximum speeds in motorways with curves. Regularly under mild weather conditions during winter (-3 to +15 Celsius) sometimes rainy but never iced or snowy roads. I would recommend these tires because of low price and extremely silent for a winter tire. Cons are relatively high fuel consumption & possibility of bad wear. No idea about

Immediate understeer during high speed cornering uphill in the wet. I cannot image how it feels when down hill.

Coming from a hot Audi hatchback, it was clear to me that trying to drive my new plug-in hybrid SUV in a spirited way was pointless. The tires aided to this as the feedback is average and rather imprecise in the corners when pushing with 245hp on the front wheels. Further to this, the tires lose grip easily when you are facing uphill and trying to start moving from a stand, especially in the wet. They are not a looker either, if that matters to you.
Comfort is where the tires excel! The profile is rather low for this kind of vehicle, but the puddles are a joke and, I recon, the suspension is not the only one to thank. Also, I cannot stress enough how impressed I am with the ride quality and the lack of noise on the motorway. These tires will be appreciated by BEV owners who travel long distances. Although I am not impressed by their performance in the wet, I must note that they behaved very safely in instances of aquaplaning. Finally, the wear is very good. 16,000 miles and they are good as new.

Great set of tires! They have everything you would want from your tires. Excellent comfort and excellent handling. In heavy downpours it is never phased. Very impressive and confidence inspiring tires. Would highly recommend . Can't wait to get my hands on the latest s1evo3s considering how well it's predecessor performed

Surprisingly comfortable for a performance rated tire. Noise is minimal
Handling is on point with rather direct feel.
Yet it dampens out bumps and uneven surface rather well. Probably thanks in part to its relatively softer sidewalls.

These tires will impress me after 2,000 kilometers.
Produced low-frequency noise on the rough tarmac with the VW 18" stock wheel.
The steering wheel feels good, and the ride is comfortable too.
Shorter braking distances in wet and dry weather.
The rolling resistance is good, and the mileage has somewhat increased.
Overall, I am happy with the MC6.

I won't be impressed by these tires until they have travelled 1,000 kilometres.
The steering wheel feels wonderful, and the ride is comfortable.
At all speeds, there was a noticeable reduction in road noise at first.
Smooth on all road surfaces; low-frequency noise on the rough surface.
Short wet and dry braking distances.
While driving, I can feel the reduced rolling resistance, and the mileage has somewhat increased.
A value-for-money product.

Overall well balanced tire. Dry grip on smooth roads limited, Traction control comes on regulary with acceleration in first gear on country roads that have a bit of blown dust on.
Never had a puncture in two sets that lasted average 34000 km each.. The tires are noisy on smooth roads. Lateral traction very good. Good load carry capacity with limited pressure growth with load.
Cornering well balanced - overall happy with their performance.

They feel very hard and rough ride, and are very noisy, particularly on coarse bitumen.

Reasonably priced for my budget, i bought 2 for the rear first, liked the look and price so then later bought 2 for the front. British made I thought, let’s support Britain. Can’t complain about dry or wet grip, hence the score. The diesel Tiguan can hardly be thrashed about and my driving is a little sedentary at 63yrs old but I felt safe in all weathers on all surfaces (except snow). SO here comes the crunch, I’ve just had to replace the fronts at only 17,000 miles! I knew from research that the compounds were soft but I’ve never replaced any tires at 17,000! The rears are also getting down at just 25,000 so very disappointed about the longevity akin to my driving style. A medium priced well behaved tire but with a short lifespan. Luckily I only do 5000 miles a year so suppose they’ve lasted 3 years.
