I was very pleased with both the wet and dry performance of this tyre. Not bad at all.

My car had RE040 from new they originally did 18k and i ran them down to 1.6mm and below i did not want to replace them then as in the wet the grip was awesome but along came the RE050A. I would say they are just as good good dry & wet conditions wear not bad as over the years i tend to give my car more stick as it has been lowered and brake upgrade plus being chipped (no i'm not a chav) my car looks standard apart from being lowered. Back to the tyres i can not fault them but bearing in mind my car is a quattro so i don't know how they would perform on a front wheel or rear wheel drive car as these tyres were the manufactures original choice (well RE040's were).

Damn fine tyres that cost 50% the price of the premium brands but give you 80% + the performance.
Grip is really good in both dry and wet, and not to shabby in the snow but when really cold, like winter 2010, then the compound did get rock hard and performance dropped off considerably. Thanks goodness for variable 4WD I say.
But then again we should be using winter tyres in those conditions.
Only concern is tyre wear. They seem have taken a bit of a bashing over the past 12 months and about at the limit, where as I'd expect another 3 - 4 months from them. That said, no complaints and I'd happily part with my hard earned for another set (pity 4WD requires all 4 to be replaced at the same time, ouch!)
