Had them for quiet some time, used mainly on my Mercedes ML350 and E250.
They wear really good. Horrible on dry road during really high tempretures. Quiet and reliable. Wonderfull on wet roads and rainy days r no problem for these tires. I have the Horizon Horace very stiff and hard tires but for a low quality tyre shall do u good. Would not recommend if u plan on racing.

The most recent reviews, in their own words
For the price of these tires, o must say I am pleased, i am driving a 2015 Volvo S60 and previously had yokohama bluEarth tires which were very good however these Horace tires almost match up to the standards even though they are half the price, if you are looking for a budget tire that will see you through then I recommend these.
