Feels pretty good in the dry but really twitchy in the wet. Fuel consumption/rolling resistance is good. Can´t tell you about the Noise, due to a loud Exhaust. The Tire feels a bit stiff. All in all still an ok Tyre for the Price.

Fitment comes from each tyre's manufactured size list, and the sizes are the ones drivers reported when they reviewed. Check the size, load index and speed rating on your own doorplate before buying - a size a previous owner ran is not always the size your car left the factory on.

What BMW 323ti drivers say
The most recent owner reviews from this car, in their own words.
I ride the VR2 NK in slalom and I'm really impressed. In the dry, it's almost slick-like. The grip is truly amazing, and the tire warms up quickly, even in the medium compound. Really great for the price. Unfortunately, wear is very high. They only last me 12-15 races, so less than a season. The soft tire lasts even less. For the price, though, I'll still buy them again because the grip really impresses me. In the wet, the semi-tread works relatively well, too. But of course, it can't be compared to a rain tire.
I have been driving the tires on my e36 tracktool for around 12,000km including 8 track days, 10 leisurely laps of the Nordschleife and I have to say that my expectations were absolutely met. I deliberately chose these tires and not direzzas/a052/ar1 because I drove the vehicle to the race track under its own power. Tires are only suitable for rain to a limited extent but in contrast to the alternatives mentioned above they are certainly the best.
The limit is announced nicely, but the tires make you aware of it too early. The transition to the loss of grip is smooth and predictable. However, they are quite sensitive if they exceed their operating temperature.
Pace is below the usual, full-fledged semi-slicks but above a ps4s or ns2r.
Durability is great, I think you could still drive about 7k km in mixed use with it.
