    Given 37% while driving a Volkswagen (205/55 R16 T) on a combination of roads for 10,000 spirited miles
    I bought the tires two weeks after production. Brand new. I can not imagine how such piece of rubbish can be on the market at all. For it's money you can buy Kormoran which is great.

    Given 43% while driving a Skoda Octavia vRS (225/40 R18 V) on a combination of roads for 100,000 spirited miles
    Dear all, I am from Serbia, place where this tyre are actually made. They are absolutely the same compound, thread,whall.ext as Tigar, Orum,Riken and Kormoran. These tyres are made in Michelin factory in the city of Pirot. I wouldnt reccomand it for heavier cars and for cars with engines with 100+ hp. I have them on Octavia vrs tfsi. These tyres are not for racing if you drive normally they are ok. Wet grip is horible, on snow grip is sufficient. wear is ok.

    Awful tyres. The car was skidding even at the lowest speeds when wet. Very rigid, really bad tyres. I can’t imagine how someone would pay anything for this quality. I wouldn’t accept these tyres for free.
