Generally speaking very positive all round. Unable to fault except a little or slightly noisier than I expected. Price not hapy but when buying toward the top end what can you expect?

Chose these tyres in preference to the standard Dunlops for my Mini Cooper S. around 15% cheaper but not worth the saving. Roadholding nowhere near as confident in corners and towards the limit but more than that the ride is harsh, uncomfortable and very noisy. overall a much harsher ride and in retrospect I would pay the extra for the original fit Dunlops

Not a bad tyre for the price but the wear rate was appalling on my Honda CRV, despite AWD. Nevertheless, rate of wear was even on all 4 Tyres without rotation. Tyres only lasted 9,000 km - now have to decide on replacements. Over the winter, was back to original 18 in OEM spec Dunlop's for winter/snow but summer is here and have to bite bullet for 19 in wheels.
Yok's were brilliant on fast, cross country Ireland trip last year but I felt tyre grip was at its limit. Lack of confidence in ability to stop vehicle safely at high speed caused me to lift throttle briefly but as former Audi S3 driver on Goodyear Eagle F1 GDS3, perhaps expecting too much from SUV with inferior tyres. After trip, they looked as though they had taken a hammering! However, road surfaces were hot and it was all on B type roads or country lanes. Honest comment - a very suitable tyre for summer use on a CRV.
Buy again - probably not given personal driving style! May opt for Continental ContiSport Contact 3.

STEERING RESPONSE IS AMAZING WITH THE 205 FRONT PROFILE.
AND THE 225 AT THE REAR. THIS WAS A DREAM SETUP! A+
GREAT IN TIGHT CORNERS, WELL IN THE WET ALSO.
NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH THESE ONES, UNLIKE THE V550 SILENT dECIBEL TYRE WHICH AQUAPLAINED MY PREVIOUS CAR!!!

Amazing tires for the first 7000 kilometers, then they will get simply annoying.. noise is almost intolerable for a tire that is designed for everyday use. Grip is alwasy great although theres tires out there that have better grip, but something that this tire excels on is feedback and quick reactions, im sure theres no tire out there that reacts and gives the feeling on what is happening on the road better than this one.

"I replaced them with Goodyear F1 Assymetric and the difference is like night and day."
My track experience is exactly the opposite : after many V103S, I wanted to test other tyres and bought F1AS : for the first time, I must leave the track after only 10min, I lost the grip completely when the tyres get hot.. I used to race 20-30min with V103s, must only take care of pressure.
I sold the F1AS 2 days later ;)
