Very good tyres, especially for the price. After 4 summers and 40k km, the grip still has life, the marker for replacing was not hit.By me, this tyre was made for wet road - very good behaviour. The comfort is not the best, but these tyres are performance tyre (according to AEOLUS), but it is not very bad. If you are looking for good tyre for reasonable price - these are for you. Definitely it is recommended tyre and will buy again in this size.

The most recent reviews, in their own words
After 60k Khm its time to say goodbye to these folks. Really good tyres. I would buy them again.....
Quite good tire for 60 euro price. Perfect for average use in town. Buy again probably on my quattro 3.0
I buy 2 for the rear wheels, they're going pretty good until I saw the completely BALD all of the sudden.
I live in a warm but rainy place the tyres went absolutely bananas on wet in like 3 days, I couldn't even drive in a straight line without losing grip and hydoplane like crazy.
They lasted about 7 or 8 months... The weird this is that I change it at the same time of the front tyres, but the front are steeringAce 2 225 40 r18 and those look and feels like brand new!
I don't know if is a different or softer compounds but this didn't please me.

Grips well uphill especially when turning. I accelerate aggressively in 2nd gear. Good when braking. Good wet weather tyre. I drive in Cork Ireland on wet roads that are often in fair condition. Noise OK. Has a fair bit of rolling resistance freewheeling in neutral downhill but fuel economy is Ok. Overall very good cheap tyre.
Budget Tyres so cannot be perfect in every aspects. Dry grip is good but wet grip is unbelivable. No slipping whatsoever. Already used two sets of them...at this point just arrived for these tyres weakest point. Wear. Well the two sets could not survive more then 30k kms (18k miles). At the edge of the profile is way more thinner then in the middle.I went twice for alignment, never thought is a tyre structural issue.
