These tyres are amazing for the price. Seventy quid each for 205/50/17's. Dry grip is probably the best I've had, wet grip is very very good. Rolling resistance is rubbish, and the wear life is truly dreadful. 7.5k miles, on a diesel Mondeo!!!! Admittedly the Mondeo has been chipped, and the torque just ripped these tyres to pieces. But it was a lot of fun doing so!
I wouldn't buy these again though, as 7.5k life span is much too low. For a set of tyres, that's 40 quid every thousand miles. Too much.

A big difference over the standard Bridgestones that were fitted.
Much less road noise, better handling in all conditions and better feedback on the wheel.

I was very happy with these tyres, and they lasted extremely well.
