These have pretty great grip when dry. Can hear the tires squealing when pushed around curves hard, yet they still have traction. Wet grip is rather poor though, take it easy around corners when raining, especially hairpins. Makes for good drifting practice if you're bored however. At least you can feel when they start to lose grip and it's pretty easy to back off on the throttle as such. It seems dependent on the road surface however; I've taken some bends at speed in the wet no problem, while others that seem gentler I still feel the rear sliding out, this tends to happen more if the road surface looks especially smooth/shiny.
I've been driving them hard for about 12,000 miles and they still seem to have a fair bit of tread so the wear seems to be ok.
I'm not too sure whether I'd buy them again however. I've been looking for performance tires for a while now and while these are great, the wet performance does leave something to be desired.

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.
