Comment:
These tyres are very average in every way, except they cost more than tyres which are better. Wet grip is poor, although wear is good, as is dry grip.

Comment:
On the front axle performance was moderate in dry conditions, but braking under par, far worse than the Michelin Exalto's I had afterwards. In the rain I've had aquaplaning too often, even at moderate speeds. On the back axle they performed better and the lower grip even made for some fun on dry roads, but in rainy conditions it made the car spin once, without prior warning or margin for correction. I can't recommend these tyres to anyone at all (unless you have a deathwish).

Very good tyres for the money spend on them. Good handling, but somehow noisy.
