    Purchased these tyre's in June 2015, they are at legal limit now April 1st 2016. Think i am the April fool. Not even done 10000 miles. Load of cheap rubbish.

    Cheap tire with acceptable price / quality ratio. It serves the purpose for which they are made and destined. For normal driving is good. only slightly negative note on the noise. They are quite noisy and this is annoying to me ..

    I had to buy these tyres at a place where my Bridgestone Turanza runflats let me down and I did not want to wait 3 days for decent replacements to be shipped.
    This was pretty much the worst type I ever drove in 1Mio km (doing 50K km per year, mostly on highways 80%). While the dry grip is borderline, in all other disciplines it is a low performer. The tyre seems to be very soft and wears quite fast. In handling, the car feels like a boat at rough waters. Increasing the pressure, things get better, but then at most it is borderline again. The noise was average and the comfort was better than the runflats I had, but this is in the nature of runflats to be less comfortable. After 10K km I decided that is is not worth the anger and trashed them.
    I was about to go for non-runflats but I decided to give runflats another try (Bridgestone Driveguard).

    Given 83% while driving a Opel Astra J Sports Tourer (215/50 R17 W) on mostly town for 5,000 easy going miles
    My driving is mostly in town and my style now having 2 kids in the car is very slow. The speed's i've testet the tires are maximum 80miles and at these speeds the tires want give you any trouble on dry or wet...
    If you are looking for a cheep tire to do your job i believe is one of the best choises you'll make.
    The only noticable bad characteristic is the very, very, very soft sides that want let you make quick changes on lanes. It's realy bad when you have to avoide something on the road and you don't feel comfort to do it.. You need to be very carefull!!!

    Worst tyres I ever had! Sensible driver. I haven't had more than 4 months with very little use and they are worn more than the previous old tyres which were switched to the rear wheels. I found my self skidding constantly even at low speeds on corners and roundabouts. Complete waste of time and money.

    I drove those for 2 years and I am not happy at all. The first year they were slightly better but after that they lost the grip. The grabs are there but they will not even make a sound in a sudden stop or skid. the ABS non-stop helps and the ASC almost every time when I go forward on a traffic light. Don't buy.
