BMW Z1 Tyre Review Highlights

Quite astonishing! I was wary of buying this tyre, but the price was good and the reviews were also good, so I took a gamble. I was so impressed that I immediately took the Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3s off the M5 and fitted these. The levels of both wet and dry grip are excellent, the progressiveness when breaking loose is excellent and the road feel is excellent.

I cannot recommend these tyres highly enough.

These were excellent compared to the Dunlop SP Sport 9000s that preceded them and I really did think I would be buying them again. They gave very good grip, wet and dry and road feel was really impressive. However, at the time I needed to replace them, I couldn't get stock.

A very good tyre.

Tyres were a huge improvement on the P6000s that preceded them. However, although they were very soothing and had OK-ish grip, I never felt properly bolted to the road. OK tyres, but there are better ones out there.

I must be alone in the world on this: I thought they were rubbish, absolute rubbish. They gave no grip at all compared to the (original) Michelin Pilot Sports (not PS2s) that preceded them. They were especially horrid in the wet.

Definitely a tyre bought for looks, and not for grip in my experience.
