First thing about this tyre you notice is the noise. It is the loudest tyre (from 0 to 60 km/h) ever to me. It changes the whole driving feeling. Comfort is ok, wear is great for now. Drove them on fresh snow uphill to mountain, all good. On the other hand, on cold and wet it is not good. ABS on downhill breaking turns on to much. Would not buy again.

Above all, ride comfort and steering response on dry roads, parking or leaving the garage are very good. Lane changing is also pleasant, but not as precise as Michelin Sport. They are not very noisy tires, although depending on the condition of the road, we can say that they are remarkable, they have no weak points.

They're good tires and for the money they're amazing, but the comfort is bad.

Great tires compared to michelin alipin 5. Both tyres served perfectly for 2 seasons, but i don't recommend using them in the 3rd season. I recommend these tires. Price and quality is very good.

First two years of using grip was good on wet and dry road. After 2 years grip on wet is very bad. Tires rapidly change quality after 20000 km which is not normal for me. Prior this tire I was using Pireli P7 which have much better performance after two years of using.

2 winters on them, not very much snow in those 2 winters but I did try them in mid life on a montuain during a snow storm going on RWD car and I made it with zero problems to the top. Biggest complaint is the wear on them. 3rd winter will be my final with this set.

Very happy with dry handling, not bad at wet handling. Around 10 degrees they become very hard and lose all their grip on the "cold" and wet. Other than that, 6 months on them, around 10 000 km, driving RWD with around 200 hp, living in Croatia (very dry and hot summers) I am very pleased with the price range and quality. I would by them again.

Replaced the run flats on my daily BMW with these in march. It was really sunny dry day and I questioned my choice. Then again I live in Scottish Highlands.
The car has genuine e92 m3 arms front and rear and a few handling suspension upgrades so I was planning Michelin PS4's but was offered a deal for a full set of crossclimate.
Anyway I was initially impressed, feedback great handling and feel all good. However the test came with a week of unexpected winter showers and snow. The car was able to drive as RWD like I was driving in dry, accidents around me and car felt like I was driving along a summer coastal highway. Similar story in wet so much grip!
After 4 months they still baffle on a RWD how I can have so much feel and grip. Wear seems fine and plenty life left in tyre.
Would recommend them highly especially living on farm type roads. They transform a car that handles and feels good to excellent in sub terrible conditions and in dry feel great, after all they are michelin.
Think my favourite daily tyre for my roads has been found.
