Comment:
Probably the best wearing tyres I have ever had on a car! 28,000 miles on the rears of a 3 litre sport BMW! Very comfortable drive. These were the OEM fitment by BMW. There may be better tyres out there, but I won't take the gamble - will stick with what suits the car.

Comment:
Excellent driving characteristics with sharp turn in, good in corners stability and progressive breakaway. Requires experience to get the most out of but highly recommendedin the dry or wet. Wet eather grip not massive, but great fun thanks to the progressive breakaway. Better in snow on the RX8 but would add they were utterly hopeless on my previous Civic Type R. The Mazda suits them far better.

Comment:
Gripped really well in dry but that is the only positive! Didn't take long to wear, very dissapointed with the length of time it took.
