While these tyres are OK in dry conditions, they're an accident waiting to happen in the wet. No grip while accelerating or cornering

I’ve had a few sets of these tyres. I do a lot of miles and enjoy driving so put these tyres through their paces when safe to do so. Owned many grades/prices of tyres over the years and these are pretty good all rounders, and excellent value for money in the sizes I purchase (225/40/19 & 255/35/19).

I only do about six thousand miles a year now but these tyre are holding up well and I haven't noticed any difference in road holding or noise so I would certainly buy them again when my rears need changing.

Not noticed any real difference from the Pirelli's that were on before which cost more than double,how many miles these do compared to the more expensive tyre's remains to be seen.

This is without doubt a great budget tyre. For sure it's not a Pirelli but, still feels confident in all conditions. If there is a downside it's soft. Which does make it a bit quieter but I don't get the mpg. My PZeros would regularly give me 6/670 miles per tank. Golf GTD. These only ever give 550mph. So I guess you have to work out the cost of extra diesel against the difference in cost of tyre. That said they really do have plenty of meat on them, and I would definitely recommend. 10/10
