WHAT OWNERS SAY
❝
Reading all these reviews im a bit confused. Im wondering if some people have fake or out of date tires. Some people are saying this tire is hard and has no grip...and as it wears looses grip...and is too harsh and doesnt perform in snow...
❝
Dry and wet traction are the best I've experienced from a road tire. Wet traction is especially
❝
I've never taken this car to a track, and my driving style isn't what you'd describe as exuberant - so you can imagine my surprise when I was told last week, I need four new ones. That was only after 22,000kms! The outer walls are completely smooth.
❝
So, the two critical questions are: 1) Would I recommend these tyres to a friend? Yes, absolutely! These tyres are phenomenally good! 2) Would I buy them again, with my own money? If money was no object, then yes.
