They are highly recommended tyres for safe driving, good design and excellent grip on wet and dry roads, the problem of noise is felt enough on the motorway...

Excellent in the dry, not so good in the wet. Can lose traction when starting off in the wet. Sporty appearance.

Changed from harsh run flats. The improvement is vast with only minor road handling compromise. Great tyre from the limited time I've had them.

Slips several times a week at roundabouts or at right angles when the road is wet. The rear side slides away. Ideal for drifting but would have expected more grip for such a price range/brand.

Even if the wheel alignment was perfect, the wear is mainly on the outside edge of the tyre.

Medium-quality HP tyre. It does everything on average, definitely in this size it does the worst on wet surfaces, despite the quattro drive. I recommend it to people buying new tyres who do not want to overpay, but want to get a solid tyre at a decent price.
