Excellent dry weather tyre, although need a bit warming through to get the best from them. Better than Pirelli P-Zero, Avon ZZ3, Falken ZE512

Comment:
Very good dry grip but when wet, easy to wheelspin in low gears despite good general aquaplaning resistance. Hopeless on snow. Fairly quiet, but only on smooth roads. Tyre wear is acceptable.
