I am satisfied with these tires. I'd bought them but I was told to them in the garage and do not regret the decision

I went on this set in 1,5 year 80'000km. Impressions are as follows: BRAND NEW:+ superb dry traction+ very good wet performance+ mega quiet, good sound suppression+ very good suppression of road irregularities, the car feels comfy+ strong grip, difficult to cause ABS to work even with sudden braking (in relation to other tyres)+ somewhat nice looking tread, but less important. MADE IN CHINA, unfortunately, now they are done in China, it was heralding faster consumption and I think that's the way it is AFTER THE DISTANCE ~ 80'000km: - they are not so quiet anymore, they are average - this distance, with a calm and economical driving without being reckless, ate them up to ~ 3-4mm, so they quickly worn off to my eye. + on the wet still great (better only I have had was UniRoyal Rainsport) +/- on dry is so, so- rolling resistance increased, and so the combustion rate- on the slippery road one has to be more careful, the back of the car hasn't the best grip+ so far I have not piunctured any.- on the highway they are louder, while the new ones were much quieter.- we have a mild winter and there is no snow anywhere, so I have not changed them and, frankly, they are bad on slippery conditions compared to other summer ones that I have had, generally light snow slush makes it hard to drive but I take into accont that they already had 80000km of mileage and only half tread, so maybe it just has to be this way. Would I buy them again? I chose between Nokian and Vredestein and a few more. I did not bear that these were made in china .... next I will buy Vredestein or some other premium brand. If someone is not too reckless it should last longer. They say that hard tyres are less safe, but if you're a level-headed driver they will last longer. If I compare them to others, UniRoyal RainExpert was better than them and they were perfect tyres for rain and worse weather in general, while in hot weather they were worse, worn out similarly to those and I thought that they would last a lot longer than those. I drive rather calmly, which makes all of 4 tyres wear out very evenly.

tyres recommendable to dry well stick to the road and are reasonably quiet. Worse cope on wet roads but only at a sharp turn a little krawędziują and when driving straight ahead and through the water they give advice

I am pleasantly surprised by the parameters of these tires, for the price I recommend it with a clear conscience.

In my opinion, KINERGY are tyres worth recommending, in the subject of "Eco" tyres I had the opportunity to test Michelins and Fuldas, of course Micheliny are priced from the higher end than Fulda or Hankooks, but I do not see a big difference, nor did i notice any significant difference in the behavior of the Michelin and Hankook, but Fulda was a lot worse than Hankook. It is clearly harder and much less stable on wet, and it does not reflect in better fuel consumption. It is good that there is a choice among cheaper brands, a few years back, fuel-saving tyres, they produced only by "expensive" brands like Michelin or Continental. One should only remember that with this type of tyres, drivers will not be happy about the dynamic driving, such tyres do not have good grip, unless in the heat ... For this they repay with a little lower fuel consumption and longevity. On my family car they are doing very well

Like everything ok, but I have the impression (supported by measurement ...) that wear out a bit too quickly.

All in all, not bad, but be careful in the wet - can be slippery
