Only buy these if you live somewhere where it never rains. This tyre is TERRIBLE in the wet! Any kind of moderate to fast acceleration results in loss of traction even in 3rd and 4th gear! Experienced aquaplaning and also no grip when cornering hard in moist/Wet conditions! Its cheap for a reason

Comment:
These are budget tyres made from an extremely hard compound, and for enthusiastic driving, I would certainly NOT recommend them. I only used them because they came with a set of wheels I purchased, and their dry weather grip is very poor. They generate lots of understeer, even from my RWD BMW! Despite plenty of remaining tread, I'm now looking to upgrade the fronts to a better quality brand. I'll keep them on the back though - it makes the car tail happy! :) In their favour, the hard compound makes them extremely hard wearing, and so if your priority is for longevity and NOT performance, then in that case, I would definitely recommend them as an excellent bargain.
