Original tires, rotated every 10k km with mostly highway driving with frequent heavy rainfall.
Dry performance wasn't bad, but not outstanding, able to handle gentle curves at speed and all the acceleration from a humble Camry.
Wet performance was adequate for gentle driving but did not inspire any confidence in hard braking or acceleration from stop, let alone cornering. Understeer was almost a given in any curve above moderate speed.
Road feel was communicated too well, to the point of harshness. Every crack and imperfection in the road, any patched bits or grooving were immediately felt and heard, and even 2 cm dips in the road around manholes would rattle the cabin. I had to become very familiar with every road imperfection on my commute and how to avoid them.
Winter performance was out of the question. Any unsalted patch of frost on the road would cause loss of traction.
Mileage was consistently between 5.6L/100km and 7.3L/100km on the same stretch of highway and street when driven very gently and very spiritedly, respectively.
Replaced at 46k km with 4 mm of tread left due to worsening wet weather performance.
