Terrible tyre for my car . Worn on both edges . Stuffed after about 10k on a brand new car. Dry weather grip is ok, as is wet. Don't like the braking performance .

These tyres came with the new car. Over the last few months since I purchased the car I have driven on different roads (no dirt roads) and have found the ride, performance, and grip of the tyres to be excellent in all conditions (dry and wet). Very little noise in cabin.

Real soft rubber wears away easy and causes death wobbles. Tried wheel alignments but tyres scrub out on corners and slides around when wet causing me to drive slower. Very uncomfortable. Not looking at purchasing again
