Annoying rumble up to 40mph, uneven wear, undriveable in the snow, good grip and breaking in dry. I'm trying something else.

Comment:
Excellent tyre in the dry, quite a lot of road noise transmitted to the car. Wet perfomance is poor but not to bad considering it is a summer tyre, better after tyre has warmed up. Very stiff sidewalls so excellent directional stability, would preffer better wet grip but it does make islands good fun :-)
