Tires originally gave a floaty feeling at the rear end. This went on for a number of months - on turning it would take the car a few tenths to settle in which wasn’t really confidence inspiring. however, once they were in a bit there as good as the Bridgestone run flat I had on the car previously. Overall, quite pleased in the where seems to be totally acceptable.

Tables are ranked by TR Score, which rates each tyre out of 10 using independent test results and owner reviews weighted by how much evidence backs them. Unscored tyres link to their pages, where a review counts towards a score.
Pace EU label data
5 of the 13 tyres on record carry EU label data. These are the range's label headliners, using each tyre's best available size figures.
B Best wet grip
5 tyres reach EU wet grip class B. The highest scoring:
B Lowest rolling resistance
The most fuel efficient choice: 3 tyres reach rolling resistance class B. The highest scoring:
Label values come from the EU EPREL database and vary by size - the figures here are each tyre's best declared size. Wet grip and rolling resistance run from class A (best) to E; noise is the measured drive-by figure. A good label is a floor, not a verdict: the tests and rankings above tell you far more.

The most recent reviews, in their own words
Have always bought continental sports for my car as its what it came with new. Every year since I have needed new tyres, they wear fast and every MOT they failed with bulges in the wall. This year I bought Pace Alventis. They look great, handle the same if not better than the continental. They are super quiet on the mway, and 12 months later they still look new. Wet grip and winter ice not an issue handles great
These cheap tyres are very interesting, they are very good for me (I drive for about 30.000 km/year). They are a few noisy, but their behaviour is excellent in every condition (wet, dry, dirt road).
I want to ask a question purchased these tires 2 14months later bulging in the middle front tires went to ritson tire they would not replace them went to two tire places they said defeated tire so what i would like to know if I could get my money back or two new tires I am frustrated these tires should of lasted don't tell me it was my driving it wasn't
Actually in shock, how good these tires are there incredibly impressive period let alone for the money. Handling is nothing short of excellent Road. Feedback is superb and they are incredibly comfortable. If you have an older car like me that is in great condition and you don’t want to spend a fortune on tires, I highly recommend them.
These tyres generally perform well in everyday driving under average conditions. For the prices, they are a reasonably good buy but knowing that they are a budget tyre I haven't tried to push them and driven very conservatively in adverse conditions.
The issue I have is that one tyre kept losing air. I would just pump it up and a few months later my car would give me the same warning light. Then the warning light would appear after about a month then about a fortnight later. I couldn't se anything wrong but fearing I had a puncture, I took it to get repaired. What the tyre repair place showed me was that there were two bulges on the inner side of the tyre. I thought to myself what would happen if this tyre exploded at highway speed? Never will I buy cheap unknown tyres (these tyres came with the used car that I bought about 12 months ago).
I'm going back to the well know premium brands, looking at Michelin Pilot Sport 5 as a replacement. If you are considering these tyres, ask yourself how much is your life worth?
