Got them with a used car, fitted brand new by the dealer. By far the worst tyres I've ever driven on. Literally the only good thing I can say about them is that they are quiet - on good, sealed, recently tarred roads, that is. On anything else, especially coarse chip, they become very noisy. They aquaplane scarily early, compared even to GitiSynergy H2s (which themselves aren't exactly the last word either) of similar size. Handling is lacklustre too; the steering feel is non-existent and any attempt to take corners at a "fun" speed results in nasty surprises when approaching the limit. I suspect these tyres have been asked to do too many things at once and Toyo should stick to tyres that either do urban well, or country well, but not both.
