Well, if you are like me and have a young family, educated in the
ways of driving by your boss, who is an undefeated 5 year rally
champion, and have a like for scoobies and are 40 years old,
then these tyres are for you.
I could not justify spending
massive amounts of money on a set of tyres that are going to stick
like the proverbial to a blanket cos I prefer to spend it on my
family and our life. So I looked in the reviews, and listened to my
tyre guy, (whom I have known for many years.)
They have been on for a couple of weeks now which is not long but
long enough to get rid of the silicone.
I have just come back from
what I would regard as a test session and it was p***ing down with
rain. I gently pushed and pushed to find confidence and knowledge of
these tyres and I was not disappointed. In a nutshell these tyres
are capable of more than I will through at them with my family in
the car, (and there safety is of paramount importance to me.)
And on my own, are progressive enough with the feedback
to ensure I take the car home straight.
It always worried me how
easy the old tyres would brake away around roundabouts in the wet,
and even though it is fun, not to mention impressive to see
someone drift a scooby. I now know my drifting days wet or dry are
limited to when I am alone in the car, because you do need to push
these tyres a lot before they will brake away. And even when they
do brake away, they do not let go, they remain in good contact with
the road so if you want them to slide or drift further, you have
to push further they are very good for the price, very good for the
price. Under very heavy braking I was stunned.
(don't forget, this was in the rain)
I am going away to Europe with the car and family in 8 weeks, and I
know that I can sleep sound at night with my choice, and my tyres.
Regards
M
Hope this helps you.

Due to the soft compound of the tyre rubber you get excellent levels of grip in both wet and dry conditions. I drive my WRX like an aged pensioner and was lucky to get 15,000 - 20,000 out of them. If your after something that will offer excellent performance characteristics at an affordable price i would strongly recommend the HPY.

Not bad in the Dry, Lethal in the wet. 330bhp had them on when I got the car. Must have been only on a month or two and have lasted 15,000 miles of hard driving. Would never buy them.
