Fitted these to the rear of my 2011 VW Golf 1.2 tsi 85bhp to replace 10 year old Good Year Efficient Grip.
Chosen as we live in Scotland and roads are frequently wet. Supposed to be A rated in the wet but it's like driving a drift car at roundabouts. Also happened with my daughter driving.
Have ordered replacements (Good year)

The most recent reviews, in their own words
Previous tires Yokohama BluEarth Es ES32. I changed the front 2 first to test it see is it really that bad as the review. Apparently, it is very bad, at first I thought my car Proton Saga 1.3cc, 94hp, 120Nm and CVT gearbox is no going to run that fast as the Autogreen can't handle right. WRONG, it can handle dry highway and even wet highway roads but when it comes to slope plus some water, it flipping slip when I hill climb. The slope isn't like crazy slope, it's like 10% or less kind of slope. The other experience, when raining cruising highway turn into smaller road, it is a slope going down. It flipping slip again when I brake, bro there is a BMW 528I in front of me. But luckily, I loosen my brake paddle and regain the braking grab and stop in front of it. I was shaking and bought new tires after. In conclusion, drive slow and aspect no emergency braking needed the Autogreen is fine, everything else don't try even if it is free. Everything above never happen when I daily Yokohama, I would say my driving behavior were the same as on Yokohama back than. I lost some much confident on Autogreen I'm now trusted more on my worn Yokahama than my new Autogreen.
Came fitted to the front wheels of a used Sharan. 4.5mm tread. Wheel alignment good.
Truly awful tyres although they taught me to be a much gentler city driver.
Wheel spin pulling away from lights and junctions.
ESG engaged during moderate acceleration on less than perfect roads.
Massive understeer around corners
Drifting on roundabouts.
Car felt unstable at motorway speed.
All of above amplified by a factor of five with any moisture in road.
Reluctant to stop in wet.
Not issues usually associated with a diesel mpv!
Swapped out for a set of good year's and all issues resolved.
