Smart car drivers are either progressive or programmed purely for local town driving.
Either circumstances lend themselves to these tyres.
Have driven on them since 2008, however suffered premature wear due to my Smart dealership, Smart Mercedes Benz Colindale, North West London, replacing steering components under warranty, and failing to re-track the vehicle. They admitted this offering £80 off next majoe service - no thank you!
Both front tyres endured advanced inner edge wear at 23,000miles. Rest of tyres had negligible wear at this mileage. Rear tyres also negligible wear.
Conti are perhaps the best tyres suited to Smart's.
Have driven car to within 100% of handling limits in controlled IAM Skills Day, and found the Conti's provide early warning of understeer, Smart's achilles heel.
Disagree strongly on previous postings on handling.
