2500 miles and 4 months later the tread split. Tires-easy said (of course) that the tire was underinflated but it was properly inflated the entire time. They won't issue a refund because they take advice from their expert. Given that the tire was properly cared for, and the tread split while driving causing a catastrophic loss of pressure and an accident, I would avoid these tires simply for safety. If you want to live, try another tire.

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.

A great tyre!!! I put these tyres recently and I'm very happy! Excellent in dry grip. I don't taste it yet in wet. Better than the CSC3, which is replacing!!! Very comfortable and quieter! Let you know about the wear later!
