Great, affordable and grip tyres available in my area, surprised for the price with such performance. Will Purchase again.

Tested on a '19 Honda Civic 1.5T, in the UK. Tyres are mid-life, and noticed that their water clearing ability in heavy rain is a lot poorer than summer tyres I'd had on previously (Goodyear Eagle F1s). Wet grip is slightly down versus summer tyre referance as well, but less noticably so. Dry grip is good, but I'd say steering feel is lower than summers (although with numb electronic steering, attributing it to the tyres only is likely unfair). Noise levels do seem quite high in the civic, although I'm led to believe this is due to no noise insulation in the wheel wells. On smooth tarmac they hum even at low speed, and on rough roads the noise level is quite high.

Got them on my 2018 Honda civic X 1.5. Tires are very good compared to my previous Hankook Kingery 4S2. They were very noisy and after 1 year started to decay on the side. The SF3 are very good in the dry and wet. Where I live I don-t get a lot of snow so I think its a better choice vs the Michelin cc3 who is a bit expensive.

Ignore my previous review which shows dissatisfaction, I switched to Yoko 553 and after driving immediately on them realised it was a mental barrier I was thinking these are not good tyres. For past few weeks I had a placebo effect that I should switch to a better brand and felt my car was activating its ABS too soon on Minerva. Midway to home I realized these brand new Yokos have the exact same braking and drive response as those Minerva I took off. So I ended up going back to the tyre shop and at some financial compensation loss to the shop got my Minerva back. Now I am more satisfied with them than even before. Go for them, saying this after back to back trying a tyre more than twice as expensive but similar performance.

They were good for the first few thousand kilometres and felt like awesome tyres for the price at par with higher tiers. Now after crossing 5,000 kilometres they seem to be a waste of money. The tyres screech at even the slightest of hard brake and then ABS kicks in. There is great loss of traction at hard acceleration and the VSA kicks in ruining all the pleasure of a full throttle. It was a bad call and I am gonna switch back to any of the known brands

Pretty impressed with these, but they do have some limitations. I replaced some Bridgestone full winter tyres with these and they don't have the snow grip of that full winter, which probably stands to reason, but it's not a huge distance off it. What they do well is limit the float that some winter tyres come with when the car moves around on the tread block, it's still there, but tolerable. Some winter tyres really are unnerving for that and I'm sure going to an all season has mitigated an amount of this.
As I'm using these effectively like a set of winter tyres, I'm not wholly bothered by dry grip in the higher temps, these aren't a patch on my Goodyear ays 6's, but they're ok for the dryer winter days that they will encounter. Comfort wise, they are pretty good. Road noise on the civic isn't that well suppressed and these tyres are definitely quiet compared to any thing else I've had on, and I've had a fair amount of brands on this car. One thing they do though is best described as sing to you when you really start to lean on them, not annoying, but noticeable.
I can't comment on wear as yet due to the lack of mileage. Overall, as a replacement for a premium winter tyres, I'm very happy. They get you going in the snow, stop you pretty well and they do inspire some confidence when you want to press on.

Original tyre is conti MC5 which is very noisy. After replace with RE004, road noise below at speed 80km/h have greatly reduced and a lot more comfortable. Enjoy every corner with these tyres . On the wet road , although it can handle the condition in a ok manner, but the feedback in wet is abit soft will feel like lack of confident. Overall is a very good tyres for daily drive to minor spirit drive.

Replaced my Michelin PS4 with this tyre after asking around for a PS4 alternative. It's almost half the price of PS4. I was skeptical at first if it is any good but decided to give it a try.
Dry grip - Less grippy when cold. Need to warm up the tyre first for it to grip. More grippy than PS4 in dry.
Wet grip - It's okay but don't expect PS4 level. Hard braking in wet would upset the car slightly. Never had that in PS4 even down to 30% tread.
Road feedback & handling - Not its strongest point. Feedback is numb, handling is more often delayed. TBH it feels more like a slightly higher performance touring tyre than a UHP tyre.
Wear - Clocked approx 16k km with it so far and the tread still left 70%. Been driving it hard for couple of months. Drove over quite a number of potholes and it never bulge. Very durable.
Comfort - A comfort tyre, feel plushie and soft. Quiet at first but gets loud when it starts to wear. Absorbs uneven roads.

I never use the grip and silent tires on my Honda civic turbo.
At the good condition road,I only can heard the sound of engine and wings! That’s excellent
And I feel on the dry road, the tires also is grip

Very good deal, performance is really good in the dry and wet, clear feel of road feedback. In fresh snow, 10-15cm deep, they tend to struggle a bit when starting from a complete stop or on a hill, but as soon they are rolling the snow traction is really good.

Dry and wet grip is fenomenal, when cold and normal driving it doesn't wear too much like softer tyres and has great grip cold but when warmed up it outperforms other older semislicks. Easily 1+ second faster per "track minute" than a ToyoR888R. It's also a confortable semislick it doesnt create much noise thanks to its pattern. It is a premium dual purpose semislick, sad part is yokohama keeps increasing it's price.

Replaced factory Michelin Primacy 3, which lasted until 50000kms until a big puncture, so expected a lot of improvement in all areas. Had experience with Continentals (worst wear ever on a tyre) Assymmetric 2s (fantastic tyre) and Michelin PS4s (good traction but cupped badly. Assy 6 transformed my car, grip levels increased so much that it feels almost as a S tyre. Noise eliminated compared to worn out primacy and still is quiet after 55000 kms. Sidewalls not rock hard but still a lot of information on the steering wheel. It starts to squeak a little before grip fallout so feels progressive. After 2 rotations and 55000 have only a bit of tread left, so wet grip is accordingly lower than new. Defo would buy again, unless Goodyear brings a new model.
