They are fitted to a motorhome and I clearly noticed an improvement on road noise, fuel efficiency. They are wearing evenly and ln all, very pleased with them.

Equal the performance of previous Contis and Goodyear's. Wearing better as well, don't seem as soft.

Had both new tyres fitted on the rear of my van. Have noticed straight away that although empty the steering feels like I have a loaded van resulting in quicker steering which feels unsafe. I intend to change these new tyres to the front to see if it makes it better but haven`t had the chance yet.

I put 2 of these on the front of my fwd Vauxhall vivaro. Excellent grip when wet and cornering in general (lots of lanes and b road on my daily commute) will be putting these on the back when those need replacing. 10/10

My tyres have performed very well so far, grippy when wet or raining and haven’t had any worse mpg since fitting, around somewhere between 15-20,000 miles driven and look like they’ve a lot of life left in them yet.

They seem to be reasonable in all conditions across various road surfaces, definitely better than the old tyres as you would expect, with new "rubber" and good tread.
