Good but haven't used them in the rain yet. My tyres were fitted with whitewall inserts at the same time so not sure how this will effect the ride.

Had these fitted just ahead of my MoT 2023. Car has just been in for an MoT and the two Riken tyres have both been put as an advisory on the MoT to replace. I expected to get more than 12 months out of the tyres hence my poor review
