To say Escorts are a very average handling cars - these tyres have made a huge dfference. They've given me tons more confidence in the corners and grip like glue, even in the wet. Wear has been as expected and they are excellent value for money. Highly recommended!

Comment:
Superb grip in wet and dry when new. Gradually the grip reduces as the tyres wear in, more so in the wet. Seems like the compound gets harder as the tyres wear - to make them last longer. Now with 2-3 mm left on the inner treads, the grip in the wet is poor. Cornering in the wet is now terrible as the tread pattern on the outer edges of the tyres is not as deep as the middle - hence there is almost none left. (and this is not due to under-inflation). Overall an excellent tyre being cheaper and outperforming my previous sets of Conti Premium Contact 2, and Goodyear Excellence.
