these tyres are very good in dry conditions and very controlable on the edge, where these tyres excel is in wet conditions where there is super human grip and disperses the water extremely well. very good under heavy braking to. good rate of wear they last a lot longer than my old conti sport's, there is some road noise but again very good.

These are really good wet weather tyres and surprisingly good in the dry. Not quite wearing as well as the contis I had before but the rainsport is certainly an impressive all season high performance tyre.
Might try the FK452 next.

I've done 6.5k on the GY Excellence so far in our A4 1.9TDI 130. Wet and dry grip have been good giving me confidence to push on. The TDI is known for being heavy on front tyres but so far I've only lost approx 1.5 mm in 6.5k miles. This compares very well with the 4mm that was gone from the OEM Continental SportContact 2s after 8k miles. Performance of the GY tyres seems better than the Contis as well so I'm winning all round!

Surprisingly poor especially performance as I choase to pay more to get these tyres than replace the Dunlop Sport Maxx already on the car. These tyres didn't last very long either which was disappointing, but at least it meant I could revert back to the more superior Dunlops sooner!
