1 of the tyres requires a great deal of weight to get it balanced, 3 times I've had it balanced and (at £20 a pop) its still not right. I have no complaints about the tyres per say, only about the supply, all 4 tyres have different manufacture dates and I explicitly ordered 2015 tyres (and paid extra) but I received 2x 2014 tyres, and 2x early (week 1) 2015 tyres. I will use the tyres again no problem but will not use the same supplier.

These tyres are great, however here are a couple of problems... 1: One of the fronts needed a load of weight to get it balanced correctly and its still not 100% correct, I would have rejected it had I known. 2: I bought 4x tyres (staggered rears) and all four have different manufacture dates, I was expecting that all four would be produced in the same month (since I ordered at the same time). I bought in 2015 and one was even a 5014 production date, not pleased at all, I even paid the extra so that they were 2015!!!! (they had others on the site with older dates, I specifically avoided them). Had I known these might have been problems, I would have paid extra and bought them at a proper tyre place as I could have addressed the issues there and then. I could not really complain as they are online sales only, so whats the point.

A top tire with regard to the seal. Silent and excellent grip, raises in a clear manner the active safety and driving precision, greatly reduces the time the car's reaction. I "the heavy" foot and is the best tire I have ever tried on. Peugeot 207 XSI Sports Pack Unique contrast, inevitably, the duration considerably shorter than under-performing tires (I was aware from the beginning, it was not the life that I was looking for this tire, which, given the experience, also will mount on my 308CC when I have worn its tire)

Really happy with these - much better the the OEM Dunlops, no wheel spin at all and seem to be lasting well.

The sky better than the previous Bridgestone R050 and R040. My first Michelin off a motorcycle and did not disappoint when it comes to behavior on the wet it really surprises severely strong grip in cornering and when braking for enhanced brakes (which were as yet weaker side of the car). Now, the problem disappeared, even when the wheel is 10 degrees outside. Horse motorway is a dream, quieter than on bridgestonach in softly and quietly. No fear calibrate centrifuges red field when overtaking, very light in comparison with predecessors, better accelerate, offset slightly heavier wheels. He handed style of driving as a moderate, but as a rule riding fast and dynamically, with it from a distance, without burackich wpychan and enforcement, no braked with horn and zajezdzania narrowing of the road ahead. So the descriptions of "aggressive" does not quite fitted the ... Unfortunately, it seems that in August Zetra rather quickly, I judge them for up to 30-35 thousand km. Cons - price and lack upstand protecting felge from the side. In addition, there are no. Is the pile again - after the test Dunlopow SportMaxx I choose the better of the two, but 70% Michelin.
