It is 2021 and there are more grippy tires out there. In the dry, they seem to be very sensitive to temperature and pressure. When set to the point, they grip well in the dry with good feedback. Little overpressure/overtemperature and feedback is only mediocre, the grip also of course weeker. Sidewalls are quite stiff, but little under pressure yields floatiness. In the wet, they are reasonable but rather do not try to accelerate in the corner using an FWD car, as a skid is quite inevitable. Noise is a bit higher than for other tires. Road roughness they filter out reasonably. For Moderator - please consult that this tyre may be so much sense to optimal pressure and temperature point (I also tested 195/40R16 size with similar observations).

I don't know what's wrong with the people who slate these tyres unless they've bought Chinese fakes. These tyres have been awesome in the dry and wet on my little 4x4 but they are crap in the snow. Drag racing on an airfield at over 100mph though a standing car sized puddle and not even the slightest hint of aquaplaning. Tyres were a lot newer then though. It's just a shame they've stopped making them in my size.
I've never reached the limit of these tyres as the speed required would probably have killed me if it went wrong.
