I have had some other brands on this car, Firestone, Hankook, Vredestein, but I have to say, these Matadors are way better.
They have good balance between comfort and performance. Good levels of grip on dry and wet roads, but smoothen the ride well on rough or damaged tarmac. The noise level is ok.
The tyres are soft (both sidewalls and tread), shows some delay in steering in the corner entries, but it's not a big deal. Not a sporty tyre, tuned for comfort ride, they have the feeling I'm driving a Michelin subbrand, however It's a brand of Continental.
I got more what I expected for the price, I'm waiting how they will perform on long term.
