While these tyres are relatively comfortable and the road noise isn't the worst I've experienced, their grip is terrible. In dry conditions you can get wheel spin, and in wet you WILL get wheel spin. When towing, they don't inspire a lot of confidence and I intentionally allow even more braking distance than I do with other tyres.
Wear is also another issue. I've had to rotate and align the tyres three times now (every 5,000km rather than the usual 10,000km), and they're still wearing quicker than they should. They were fitted by the manufacturer on my new car, I've travelled less than 15,000km, and I'm already looking at alternatives.

Dry grip I dont have an issue so far, however wet grip is pretty dangerous. On normal rainy day, going through a roundabout slowly but on hilly terrain will cause the car to skid and understeer. Noise is relatively good and wear is reasonable provided regular rotation is done, especially on heavy car like my kia carnival. I would prefer a different tyre next time since there are few other tyres with similar performance characteristics can be cheaper, like goodyear or yokohama.

These are OEM tires for an EV and try to strike a balance between performance, comfort, and efficiency. The sidewalls look pretty good and they’ve got decent rim protection. Dry and wet performance are fine, but not particularly notable. Efficiency is also fine with better range than the all weather Michelin CrossClimate2 tires I use for winter.

25.000 km on my Defender. The tyres works very good on highways. No noticeable noise even at high speed. I would say that the performance in mud is not very good. I have lost 2 tyres due to the rock cuts in the sidewall. I was driving a forest road not very rokcky.
