Very good all round tyre, I've found them to be quiet and give excellent grip in the wet, dry and even snow. I've been through a few sets of these and each time found that they grip well even when they are worn down and barely legal. The wear is also good, but obviously depends on driving style - would defiantly recommend.

I had a set of these tyres on a Passat Sport 1.8T and they performed fantastically! They wore exceptionally well on that car and though I only did 11k miles there was not much wear on them. However the same can't be said for my Golf 1.9TDI though the grip and everything else I liked about these tyres was the same - they wore out incredibly quick on the front after 8k miles!

These have been rubbish on our Golf, put a new one on the rear after a flat, the other tyres same make TZ200, have done 8K on top of the TZ300 and its BALD...crap tyre, will not recommend or buy again less than 10K on school runs, wife only does 8K a year mileage...rears going bald before the fronts - totally un heard of.
