Comment:
Lucky for me I only put 2 tyres on the front and didn't change all 4. Very poor tyres. In the wet it feels like you are driving on oil....no grip...my advise spend some more money and get a better tyre - these tyres should not be installed on performance cars.

Pathetic wet tyre, but half decent on warm, dry tarmac. A real Jekyl & Hyde character.

Comment:
Less than half the price of the Bridgestones I normally use, I was surprised. Good tyre, bit mushy feedback, but generally acceptable performance for Â£40 fitted. Better than other known brand budgets I've used (Kumho and Hankook, be ashamed)

Dreadful tyres. No grip. Cause of chronic understeer.
