Part 2 of the review. I've run the tyres approximately 5000 km's. Car got remapped to 183 hp and 296 N/m, the tyres still grip very well in the dry. However they struggle for traction in damp conditions, but for a FWD car without LSD it's normal.
However, when I changed to the winter tyres, the tread on the front tyres is visibly less than on the rears, I'm estimating 3 or 3.5 mm until they get at the bars. I didn't do any burnouts, but I drove them spiritedly. Next summer I'll rotate them and I think 2025 will be their last year. Very good tyres for the money, but if you drive them hard, I don't think they'll last 20.000 Km.
I'm thinking to get some Toyo Proxes Sport 2, Kumho Ecsta PS71 or Maxxis Victra Sport 5.
