500 miles later.... scuffed & broken in. V6 Merc 3 liter diesel E Class. BIG LUMP. Previous Cross Climates 30k. I have given the rubbers max marks for every criteria. Yes they are that dam good ! I am not worried if they last 12 months or 3 years. I will buy them again. It has transformed my remapped Merc to something else ! Scooby Subaru difference. The car sits in the road and steers razor sharp. The braking was tested return trip to the Cotswold in the wet. WOW kid you not THE CONFIDENCE IT GIVES YOU IS IMMENSE. Cross Climates carnt come close sorry ! Heres the kicker i have 16 rims , nothing sporty so if you did have wider wheels OMG you would be like a Cheshire cat. That said , I have 530Nm with a XLR pedal box. So it can shift. I never thought that tyres could alter / transform the ride, comfort , noise so much. Wasnt expecting that and can only comment on my truck. Have owned Scoobys , M3 , Porsche , MR2s, Mercs am an old fart 58. So I have an idea what a positive transformation these CP7s have made to the overall ride , steering razor sharp, grip, comfort, noise. Braking and direction is immense. I have lost about 2MPG rolling resistance tough. I have been bamboozled by the amount of tyres and compounds on offer. However, the expert review here and other research made me DO IT. I am so happy I payed the extra lolly. I feel like i have a two ton Subaru they are that good! Enjoy the trip.

Had a PC6 before and it was a very good tyre that suits me absolutely. However, there were only a couple of nuances that were not good for its price - noise and wear. And if noise is more or less acceptable and heavily depends on your own car, but wear is something that was really annoying. Every season you can easily see how your tread is passing away.

So, the new PC7 and already has enough mileage in different conditions. The ride is significantly better. In every way, more comfort, less unnecessary information from a surface, everything was smoothed and I like it. The grip is on the ultra level. No matter what you have underneath the rubber. Noise is still here but subjectively lower.

The most important thing that was in the previous generation is still here and even more vivid - your feelings behind the wheel. The tires are so dart and agile that you have a feeling of a different car. Every corner is so expected and so pleasant that you want more and more of them. You want to drive your car more and more, no matter of destination point and purpose. Line changing in a blink of an eye. Accelerating and stopping after +10 degrees can impress till shock.

I honestly can't wish for more from a summer tire. The only hope it will last more than its predecessor.

Bmw 530d is a heavy powerful rwd car. In the wet, I can floor it and the rear will just not let go. Quite amazing in the wet. Very quiet at speed. Dry handling up with the best. Too early for life, but if I see 15000 miles out of rear, I'll be happy. Buy them!

Fantastic tyres. Previous tyres were Michelin ps4. These 7s are possibly better in every department. Highly recommend them. Very impressed.
