I did a lot of research before buying these Nexen n3000 boots. The general rating was that they're a budget tyre and "good for the price, but you get what you pay for"
3000 miles in I have to agree. They're not as sticky as some, and don't like a lot of standing water but for the price they're not that bad.
REALLY quiet too.
I probably wouldn't want to put them on a car with massive power but if you need a budget tyre for a warm hatch they're not bad.

Bottom line, if you're not rallying with these guys, you'll be surprised with the grip (specially in the rain), the low noise, comfort and thread wear. If you are looking for a TOURING tire but sometimes you drive like Loeb, the Contis Premium Contact 2 are the first choice, as their feedback is far better and cornering stability is superior. But as I said before, for 205 size, overall, the ER 300 are the best in it's class.
