I have been using these on all four wheels since last April (i.e. nine months). I knew nothing about them, except that they are a european budget brand which the mobile tyre fitter had in stock at a very fair price. The very first impressions were positive; the difference in noise and ride quality, after the worn Bridgstones on my Mazda, was immediately noticeable. Mazdas are not quiet at speed (I'm on my 3rd),but these tyres have definitely reduced the road roar at motorway speeds. I'm no boy racer, so I cannot say I've tested these tyres to the limit. However, I get less wheel spin at the front when pulling away smartly, than I did before (it's a turbo diesel). Cornering in the dry is fine most of the time, but can be twitchy if you're, say, flicking through a mini-roundabout. This is the reason for the 4-star rating, instead of 5. I'm fairly cautious in the wet, but I've not had any scares when braking moderately or cornering sensibly, certainly nothing I could put down to the tyres and not the car. Where these tyres have really impressed is in the snow we've had recently. Compared to the summer Bridgstones, these are very sure-footed and reassuring. I can drive uphill, in light snow/slush conditions, without having to turn off the traction control and wheel-spin madly, as I had to before. Our driveway is on a steep incline, but there's no drama involved, unlike before. Finally, they seem to be wearing well (by which, I mean not a lot!). Overall, I'm happy with these tyres.
