STREET RESPONSE 2

Exellent tyre, put it on both my fiesta's mk9 and mk7. It was magnigicent. Vaule for money. I was worrying about nothing.

Tyres were installed on 01/2018, made in Thailand. I park my car in the basement, so no direct sunlight. For the first two years I accumulated around 20k km and swapped front/back. After that covid hit and now 07/2023 the tyres have accumulated 45k. These tyres excel at handling and road feedback, feel very sharp up to now. The unique advantage that have compared to other premium brands I drove, is that wear comes gradually and you never feel that the rubber becomes stiff throughout the years. Also during summer, car is driven in gravel roads with some nasty rocks and these tyres have really good walls. Perfect in breaking on dry conditions, almost perfect in wet (the most predictable tyres that I have driven). As a disadvantage I would say the road noise is high now but, it is expected after so many Km and rough usage from time to time.

Its the same tyre with Goodyear Compact. Excellent in dry roads, very good in the wet. Brake is very good in dry and wet. Its a llttle noisy than Goodyear but its ok. Comfort very good, aquaplaning very.good.

The tire is excellent.
Four years and 50000km and lm still thinking about to remove them!! Actually I m going to change them in a couple of months and checking my options....l ll check the cost to buy them again!

Overall this tyre exceeds your expectations from a tyre in this category in terms of grip and handling.
In dry conditions there is a lot of grip even close to the limit during turns. The feeling you get in the steering is accurate and direct and you feel that the tyre is a lot wider than it really is. I didn't expect that from a 175/65/15 tyre.
In wet conditions you still feel confident even in heavy rainfall. aquaplaning is excellent and the grip is good enough. Its not exceptional like the dry grip but it is more than good for a tyre in this category.
In terms of comfort it is soft and comfy. rarely you feel that a bump was harsh. Road noise on the other hand is above average. Its not very quiet tyre.
Overall highly recommended
