I had them fitted to my 2006 Audi S4 Avant and was very sceptical at first. Having said that 10,000 miles later I had completely changed my mind as I could not reaaly fault them. Since then I have had them fitted to my 1999 Porsche 996 (saved £650) and my wifes 2006 Audi TT. No ditches no hairy moments and a comfortable ride with acceptable wear levels that more than compensate for the loss in mileage compared to more expensive tyres. Reading the reviews below I could not really say that there was any noticeable difference in either wet or dry handling compared to the Pirelli's and Dunlop's prevoiusly fitted. I should say that I am no "Test Pilot" and that I was not using them on track days... just every day driving!

I live in new york city,US of A. I have numerous amount of tires through the years and for the price this is pretty good tyre. I currently havre them on about 4 sets of wheels 16 tyres in all no complaints. I even use them on the snow, I drive an S4 so to put summer tyres in the snow I put them on to have fun. Nankangs are a cool tyre IMO.

Got these fitted to my Audi B6 S4. Cheaper than Contis but with no drawbacks. Better in the very wet than anything I have used before.

Teriible. I was advised to have these tyres on the S4 (V8) as they were the best suited for the car. Grip in both dry and wet were great. Road noise was minimal. The BIG downside is the longevity. 8000 miles - and I'm no Lewis Hamilton (well...not everyday!)
Would I buy again? NO. I would expect at least 12-15000 miles from a tyre.
Lookin3 or Falken 452's next.

I replaced all 4 tyres on the Audi after having all 4 wheels refurbed not long after purchase. The F1's came highly recommended for the Audi (B6) and weren't badly priced.
Initial reports (when ditching the conti's that they replaced) were very good. Low road noise, good handling in both the wet and the dry and, bing non directional allowed me the choice of rotating the wheels (axle to axle - not...well, you know what I mean).
Now, 6000 miles later, the fronts require replacing within the next 1000-1500 miles. I swapped fronts to rears which means all four will be replaced at the same time in not so many miles.
Would I buy again? Definitely not! At £615 for four and only lasting 7-8000 miles is an insult. It's on an Audi that is my daily runner - not a track car that has hard miles.
Toyo T1-R Proxes will be my next choice.
NOTE: DON'T buy the conti's either - as much use as soggy bread.
Trust this helps you chaps

Worst tyre I have EVER had this misfortune of using. Unfortunately these were fitted to my car when I bought it. The car in question a 423bhp S4, what possessed the last owner to run these is beyond me. If it rains and you drive with any intention whatsoever you are going to end up in a hedge. However if you like driving around at speeds that cause large queues to form behind you then these are the tyre for you as they do last well.
How these are still being sold I do not know, for the money there are WAY better tyres out there. Do yourself and your wallet a favour and get some Falken 452/ Toyo T1R/ Khumo KU39 or Rainsport 2 if on a budget.
