I have a 2016 Volvo S60 T5 with an ecu tune (roughly 300hp and 450-470nm of torque). I have to say the first thing I noticed about the tires are how good they grip in the dry.. they almost eliminated 90% of the negatives associated with front wheel drive which was very impressive because they had to handle a good amount of torque for a front wheel drive setup. They have really good traction in the wet too, specifically wet braking impressed me.
Road feedback is excellent!
Disadvantages:
Wear was a little bit too much for me on the front tires but I guess you could blame the stress of the high torque and my very enthusiastic driving…
I would also note that grip is noticeably lower the wear is high but it is understandable.
The only reason I will not buy these again is the new F1 asymmetric 6.

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.
