End of Life

Had significant number of punchers, driving mostly highway and black top roads. Wire, small screw, any road crap would cause slow blow down. Repaired a tyre at least twice a month.
Could not fault road holding, braking performance ect, Simply got frustrated fixing punctures!
Put on set on Continentals in Dec 25 no puncture to date that should tell you something.

  1. Initial Impressions59% 12,500 miles
    I bought a VW T Cross that came fitted with this tyre. It is a decent enough tyre in terms of braking and handling. Wet grip maybe a bit suspicious but I've had worse. Road noise also bit on high side. However, my biggest complaint is the amount of punctures I had. Around a puncture a week. I have preferred Continentals for many years and had never had to do so many repairs before (my driving habits had not changed). After 25 000 km I had enough and reverted back to Continentals, no punctures for last two months touch wood. I ditched a set of tyres that had plenty of tread left bit heartbreaking considering cost to replace all four tyres at once, but peace of mind is real important. I would not recommend these tyres for South African conditions.

No bad but I am not happy too. Works well but the front tires wear off after 12000 miles as the normal should be at least 20000. As summer tires very bad at snow/ice but previously I had an other Chinese, cheaper brand of summer tires, and it was a lot better at snow/ice than this ones. If you find them around 30% cheaper or less than premium summer tires looks like a good choice but my next choice will be all weather tires.
