Modified Seat Altea Xl 220 bhp! Front wheel drive. Car is a lot quieter than the the tyres before which were vredestein ultrac sessanta. Grip about the same and the tyres side wall are a lot stiffer than the sessanta. Thats the only gripe but will purchase again as I have four on mine at them moment.

Having read all there is to read about these tyres I decided to give them a go and I can not rate them highly enough they are fantastic value for money. I suffered with high road noise with the previos dunlop tyres and this has improved greatly. They have good grip in all conditions better than the Dunlops and the previous set which were Bridgestone. They are made by continental as a budget brand but they are excellent tyres.

I fitted these last november after the previous winter. despite selective 4 wheel drive I was very surprised with the lack of grip on frosty roads with the summer tyres.
What a transformation on the winter tyres. The car felt very planted and even on icy roads I had complete control when other cars were sliding off the road. On a frosted over empty car park where I really pushed the adhesion they performed amazing,I floored the accelerator and after a second or two with the traction control light showing the car surged forward as if it was on a dry road. They have there linits as expected when the air temp got up to about 15 deg the dry grip was significantly less than the summer tyres when pushed. I would definately recommend these tyres. In fact I was so impressed with Continental tyres that I am fitting the car with Continental sport contact 3 tyres for summer use.

Tried these tyres as my first foray onto the world of Winter Tyres and I'm very pleased with them. Winter tyres are SO MUCH better when it's cold and amazing when it's snow/ice.
I got a good deal at the start of winter for 4 and was delighted with just how well they gripped. Early snow on my summer tyres had left wheels spinning, but these had many times the grip. Even on ice I could manouver safely and slush was just great!
I've just swapped them off since they were starting to drift on the dry, 15 degree roads recently, but very pleased overall.
My wife had 4 Continental WinterContact TS 830's (see seperate review) and these were slightly better despite the A4's more appealing tread pattern.
Even so, I'd highly recommend the A4's and I'm a complete convert to Winter tyres.

I liked my P-Zero Rossos very much and was on my 3rd set in 5 years. I always felt assured and safe with them on. I had a Seat Altea Freetack 4 which although a family motor on the outside was a hot hatch underneath,and I tended to drive like it was a hot hatch (and it was happy to do so). Like most reviews here the tyres lasted only 14-18 months max but I put that down to my "Enthusiastic" driving style! You wouldn't put these on a regular family runaround as they would be wasted. Performance Tyres you pay for handling and keeping you on the road which these do a great job of. I would buy again for the right car.
