Very good dry grip, Great in the wet,car has that planted feeling.
Previous Bridgstones would struggle for grip on a hill start, traction light would light up on occasion, with these Uniroyal's none of that happens.
Not had these tyres on enough to really comment on wear.
Also nice and quiet will consider these again.

I love these tyres. I live in Madrid, Spain. Summer temperatures are over 100F (road can get easily 140F) and winter temperatures are below 32 F. On top I love hiking on the mountains (plenty of them here in Spain) so I also drive a lot on mountain roads. It is not easy to find a tyre that performs well in all these extreme conditions but the Hankook Ventus V12 does it with one exception, snow. The tyre behaves excellent in dry (hot and cold) and wet roads in my 160 HP Mazda6. Wear is very good in my car at least. After 25000 miles they are ready for replacement but they have performed very well till the end. The only weak point comes with snow. You can manage to drive on one or two inches of snow in flat roads (still some advance driving skills are needed)but if the road goes up or down you will be in trouble. So highly recommendable tyre unless you plan or need to drive your car on snowy conditions.

Best tires I've ever owned. I've had Continental tires (came with the car) also tried Bridgestone Eagle F1's. However, this is my favourite tire. Much cheaper than equivalent Continental or Bridgestone (AUD300 each), yet I would have to say they are the best handling tire I've had. The grip in the wet is unbelievable! Also very quiet.

I never buy economy or performmance tyres but stick to the most reasonably priced "named" brands. So bought 3 of these on special at £55 each then went back for a fourth. Fitting them to my Mazda 6 has vastly changed the all round handling for the better. Sure footed as a goat on a mountain side I now feel safer on wet corners that I previously slowed down on my last set of tyres. Further the steering response is far better and there is much more feedback from the road. Dry handling is also good. Would not say that they are any louder than previous tyres. When I went back for the fourth tyre the price had gone to £64 as they had come off the Special Offer, however was so impressed I paid the extra. Have now done 5k miles on tyres covering motorway and winding country roads on a 50/50 split and would recommend them as a very good all round tyre that really excel in the wet. I Will certainly buy them again when I need replacements. I expect them to wear quicker as my simple science says they must be "softer" to give better wet grip, however, I am prepared to trade mileage for handling/safety. I would never want to go back to how my car used to handle in the wet on my previous Dunlops.

I still have the original set of ER300's / 205 / 60R16 92 V on my 2009 Mazda 6. I've reached 93,000 km. Most of my driving is long distance Riyadh-Dammam-Riyadh in Saudi Arabia under very hot driving conditions and sometimes (when the roads are empty) at speeds of 210 kmh. Very impressed with the log wear and reliability of these tyres. I'll be changing them in August when Bridgestone get new stock in Riyadh and I've decided to reduce my speeds until then: but these tyres still have ample tread left on them.

The RE001s were awesome, with grip in the wet and dry that was just exceptional.........absolutely never a scary moment. These new RE002s grip as well or better and offer improved road feel and progressiveness as you push them towards the limit. Will wait and see if I get the same fantastic wear out of them that I got our of the RE001s on my previous vehicle. At this stage cannot say a bad word about this range of tyre.
