Fine at normal speeds in the dry. Absolutely shockingly poor grip in wet or cold conditions. They spun up in 1st, 2nd and 3rd in the winter. One of the worst tyres in the wet I've ever used. They wear fairly slowly. Replaced with Firestone Firehawk that grip exceptionally in the wet. I wouldn't reccomend them to anyone sadly.
Good tyre for grip and handling but the set I had were let down by a shimmy vibration at motorway speeds. The grip and handling was excellent but I had the tyres for approximately 4,000km before I decided to change them due to the constant motorway vibrations. I personally would not buy these tyres again, nor would I recommend them to family/friends. I suspect I had a bad set.

Absolute worst tyre you can buy. Lasted 12,000km on my commodore. The only good thing about them is the way they look. Bought them 2 years prior for close to $1000 and only did 6000km a year with them and I was told by multiple reputable companies that they were bald and out of shape. Drone is absolutely out of this world. Hydroplaned the whole way in the wet and could feel the feedback in the steering wheel the whole time. Still drove the car as I needed it for work but heart rate was through the roof the whole time and focus was absolutely essential. DO NOT BUY THESE TYRES, ABSOLUTE RUSBBISH BY FEDERAL. Used to have the Couragias on my 4x4 and they never let me down - don’t know how they thought they’d survive.

I'm using since 80.000Km on my Opel Insıgnıa. They had a same premium road feedback and grip. Dry and Wet really like grip monster.
Had a unbeliveable strong wear so can drive 80.000km =)
But they are very noisy and low comfort after 4 year and long kilometers.
I will change them nowadays. I want buy a little comfortable tires. May be will miss lassa's best grip.

Driven 25,000 km on Cupra Formentor 180kw VZ. Overall ok tyres. The tyres felt good but some loss of grip in dry during quick acceleration. Overall felt safe but T0006 maybe better.
Felt sure and true at motorway speeds, handled back country roads well. Seemed to handle wet roads well.
Never pushed these tyres had as I was unsure of them, but they seemed to handle normal driving quite well.

As a fan of winter tyres and a self confessed "Michelin fanboy" these are the best winter tires I've ever used. Mostly because snow and ice are quite rare even in Scotland. So it's wet and dry performance in cold conditions that matter most.
These tyres just hang on to the road and give significantly more grip than you can reasonably expect for the conditions. Breakaway is progressive and not just controllable but fun and exploitable.
Due to unforseen circumstances (and because I have a second car) I've ended up using these throughout the summer. Grip levels reduce as expected in high temperatures but the progression and fun remain.
I'm definitely staying loyal to Continental in winter now. Long to see what their new winter tyres can do

I have had to replace 2 front tyres in 5,000 miles due to tyre ruptures from potholes on motorways. Fortunately, the tyres protected the rims which did not need replacement.

I purchased 2 tyres after reading the reviews on here and all I can say is what a great tyre. I can't comment on wear yet because I've only driven around 200 miles.. They replaced my Michelin Primacy 3, which I found to be very stiff and noisy.
coming over from CSC7. what attracted me most about this tyre were the sidewall designs, it looks way better than the csc7, almost close to a ps5 design. noticeably the noise is much lesser than csc7 and alot less bumpy. in terms of pricing, these giti sport s2 are half the price of a csc7. if you are someone who is in search of reviews for this tyre brand/model, you are in the same shoes as me initially, but i decided on these tyres because frankly the pricing seems its worth it.
pros:
-quieter & less bumpy than csc7
-sidewall design looks strikingly better
-excellent grip and engagement in the dry
-low priced
cons:
-have yet to try out on above 80km/h speeds on rainy/wet roads hence i cant give a review on wet surface
-due to its pricing, alot of people will shy away initially, as there isnt much reviews to back up this tyre's performance
prior to using CSC7, i was using Goodyear F1A5 -> personally i would choose F1A5 over the GitiSport S2 as its much quieter & less bumpy. But for pricing sake, i wouldn't mind going with the S2 again for future change of tyres.
