Awesome tires, good duration, comfortable and safe and not too expensive. Sometimes bad in wet weather so slow down a bit more when going in curves.

Bought these tyres based on generally good reviews for grip on wet roads, wear etc. Considering the wet climate in The Netherlands, this counts for me. Also, wear, because I don't like spending too much on the rubber.

I've had them fitted in september '12 and drive the car on a daily basis, mainly to work via motorway.

The tyres somewhat disappoint me! I haven't put that many miles on the clock since but still the front tyres are already starting to wear down quite a bit!

Also, the grip on the wet is just bad, bad, bad... I've had ABS take over when breaking just a bit harder than usual when people started to act like idiots in front of my while doing 80 mph... And just yesterday when exiting a roundabout just a little sportyer than usual, the front just goes all over the place.

And this is a 101 HP car weighing 1100+ kilo's...

So yes, the price is OK, not too noisy and the comfort is OK but I don't trust them too much on the wet in fast corners etc. Where I used to trust my old worn tyres to hold a straight line, on these I will slow down.

I have been massively impressed with these. I wasnt expecting to be frankly, £236 fitted for 4 tyres is very cheap. But....they are the smoothest riding tyre I have ever had on this car. I have run Pirelli, Conti, Hankook, Michelin etc on the same car in the same size and none has ever ridden as smoothly as these. They took about 200 miles to really start to come into their own though. I dont like very directional tyres as they tend to make the Audi tramline a little, and they are noisier, so these are a great compromise. They shed water very well and the ABS almost never cuts in unless I am testing the tyres! Havent used them in snow so cant comment however in the wet they are great. Not the be all and end all but very safe and controllable. I do think however that the wear rate will only be average, this car gets through front tyres but for the price I dont really mind. They are basically half the price of a Michelin! They suit the car very well and hang on forever grip wise which is important as I mostly drive on country lanes. Motorway stability is also very important and they score well there too. Definately recommended.

had these all round on my Jag X type, as opposed to the recommended pirelli , a great all round Tyre for grip wet and dry,quiet very good wear, and the cost very good. I wish they sold a fitment for my BMW5 series fun flats,but hey ho! cant speak highly enough of these tyres.

Advantages: less fuel consumption and longer lifetime 'long

Disadvantages: not found

The choice of the tire and 'one of the most' complicated to be taken as necessary to disentangle among a countless range of different tires that have distinct characteristics of many manufacturers around the world.
And so soon not only do I have to change winter tires with summer ones though perhaps the most 'can seem too hasty, but I had to buy at least two new tires for the front of my sedan as soon must' overcome 'maturity exam ', ie' review.
The review of the car wants for our safety always Tyres with a tread acceptable and mine are quite thrown away.
So I dived to inform me on what I can buy and saw few offer the measure that I decided I need to do that earlier buying me two tires BF Goodrich.
costing nearly one hundred euro with the installation but the cost is cushioned by imposing very important features for a tire innovative and cutting-edge which should allow some fuel economy, longer than the one you and 'accustomed to succeeding in that house well over 50,000 kilometers in'.
In short, a real investment in the long run should help you save time and money.
So if we combine the quality of the coat of arms that BF Goodrich and 'able to donate to the car to these features should perhaps focus on products like this rather than to save money by buying tires get turned down and unsafe as I did the same with mixed success.
So the tires are like shoes then the right choice and 'very important.

Conclusion: BF Goodrich also thought to our security.

These tyres are pretty good for the price you pay although the wet grip that these tyres are supposed to offer is overall quite poor on my car. The tyres are pretty quick to lose traction in the wet although as said, for the price I can't really complain. Just don't expect top performance from what is essentially a more budget offering.

In the dry they are good but will never compare to the premium tyres such as Goodyear, Michelin (owns BF Goodrich) etc.
