AS7 ALL SEASON

<p>Was really satisfied how they preformed, but after three years I noticed the tyre walls had slight cracks, still driving on them with caution, so not sure if I'll buy them again</p>

Late mid update, AS7has been a decent all round tyre for my Forester, wearing very well, minimal tyre pressure adjustments, a negative is they can be noisy on some surfaces, but work well on the Forester on dry and wet surfaces.

I fitted a full set fitted to my winter car (peugeot 207 1.6 hdi) which I use for commuting via the best roads in Wales to work and back each week (115 miles each way via A roads, by roads, twisty roads, wet roads & muddy roads).
The tyres do make the car feel slightly more 'floaty' in the bends but other than that they are awesome tyres and refuse to let go. I've hammered the hell out of these tyres, the rears still look like they were fitted yesterday and the fronts are just on the verge of needing to be changed (12 months & 17k miles).
All in all, very impressive and surprised I managed to get the mileage on the the fronts given they are softer than summer tyres.

Changed 4 tyres and all of them had suspicious small verical bulges (not the tyre connection notch) The tyre technician said it is normal... Already 200 miles they are still ok just little steering well vibrations over 65 miles

Had these fitted in July 2022 on a deal (still not worth it). When new, better than budget tyres in the wet, competent enough for some spirited driving along country road (which is most of my journeys). Currently along some muddy and icy lanes as well as town driving. Will grip enough under heavy braking.
That's where the good bits end. These tyres lasted 6-7 months and now they're on the markers. To add insult to injury my fuel economy has dropped 5mpg since having them fitted.
These last few weeks they have been bordering on dangerous, spinning up even in the slightest bit of damp, never had a tyre let go like that with a bit of tread left on it. Suffice to say they were pretty ropey in the recent icy conditions.
Avoid at all costs.
