Result: Would you buy again? Definitely
Comment:
Bought this as a High performance summer tyre...in the winter.
What else did I expect?
Dry grip was exceptional, hooked up well on hard drives, VERY STIFF SIDEWALLS - yes, they are noisy, but if you're looking at this tyre, you aren't looking for comfort.
Greasy/mildly moist - struggled for grip as most tyres do.
Wet - Did pretty well for what I expected (pretty low expectations). Clears the tread blocks well and leaves 2 nice clean lines behind.
Snow/Slush - Well....
I can't imagine you'll have this problem for a while but forget about it.
My Levin has a 2 Way LSD in the rear and would spin through 4 gear in any form of Snow/Slush, direction changes are very lively and braking is non-existent.
Basically, get a set of these and some winter tyres and you'll be laughing :)
