Had this tires on our family van when I bought it. Fiat Scudo 2007, 215/60-R16 XL, 99 LI .
Date of productions was 2020. Bought them used with the car in 2022. Up to winter it was a better tire than I expected from a cheap one, it was really ok in dry and not bad in wet conditions (of course its a heavy car with more weight on every wheel). In the third year it begann to significantely lose grip on wet roads. Ice and snow was then getting horrible, I had to stay behind trucks on the Autobahn because it was slipping sideways on flat tracks with icy surface. Threw them off afterwards with 4 mm tread depth in the middle, gave 2 to recycling and keep 2 for later in summer. Mounted these 2 in Summer 25 again for two weeks to test them again. They still felt good by handnail-test but the wet grip was completely gone. My 2 tons empty weight car slipped out on the front axle so easy by normal cornering on wet roads, I never felt something like this before. So I gave the last 2 to recycling too. Horrible, really horrible after 3-5 years. If you wear them to ground during 2 years, you can buy them. Otherwise don't!!!
