Good, comfortable and quiet tyre for casual driving.
Good grip in wet also.

Average on pretty much everything. Wet grip, feedback, wear.
Driveable but did not really like them

Comfortable tyre.
Grip on dry and wet is good for a winter tyre.
Grip on ice and snow is lower than other premium winter tyres I've had.
Not going to buy again.

Good in dry, very good in wet with very good roadholding and low noise levels. Sidewalls clearly harder than previous tyres RainExpert 3's.

Very good tyres. Grippy and predictable in the dry and confidence-inspiring in the wet, even on a heavy car like my Volvo. Not excessively noisy and fuel consumption is better than with Avon ZV7s that were previously fitted.
After 5000 miles the fronts are still at 7.5mm so while they are a relatively soft compound I still expect to get a reasonable lifespan from them.

This is the 2nd time i have zenises tyres, my 1st 4 tyres lasted 23000 miles with still 2.5 mm even front, and 3mm on the rear wheels, keep the tyres to there correct pressures, they were remarkably quiet , I found them a good tyre in the wet and dry, they never let me down, even on snow and ice i was on my comfort zone, would give them 6 , When needed some very extra high speed found them a smooth drive, never felt out of control, no judders ,there was no rolling on cornering, not like michelin tyres, an I am EX hgv 1 driver retired, 20 yrs +just purchased my second set this week

Switched from Pirreli.I drive on the M62 "over the tops" of the Pennines every week.Lots of rain, snow and sleat.Fantastic grip in all conditions. Car goes exactly where I point it.These tyres give me complete confidence.Will fit RS3 next time.

The steel wheel (16"!)version of this car was shod with 205mm wide tyres; mine came with 17" alloys and 225mm wide P6000 tyres and I'm wondering how much difference the extra 20mm has made to the performance!?
Grip in the dry has been exceptional even during spirited drives across good cross-country roads. Braking has also been excellent in the dry and never aqua-planed in the wet with some reduction in grip - but, probably down to me braking more gently the adverse the conditions!
The first set of tyres lasted 28,000 miles; the 2nd set are still going strong and look to be returning about the same distance.
I have noticed the steering 'tracking' on uneven road surfaces particularly when the tyres were getting low on tread.
And, the tread wears, the tyres provide an increasingly harder ride and the noise level rises slightly - but, I assume this is normal and would occur with most if not all tyres!

Great tire on confort, grip is fine at dry, above average in wet. Mostly relex driving and these tires have been good overall.

These are the first winter tyres I have ever had.
They are fitted to a 2003 Volvo V70 Auto with traction control.
Please be aware that I am a stereotypical Volvo driver, ie I do not drive fast. I used to be an advanced police driver. Therefore my 'fun' was had in police cars and not my own private cars.
My immediate impressions when first driving with the new tyres was how quiet and comfortable they are. Top score for that.
The road feedback is good whereby you can feel the grip that is being generated. I have pulled away from stand still without wheel spin (don't forget it's an auto though!) and the grip is everything that you need in non-snowy conditions in both wet and dry and also on wet leaves.
We had a few days of very mild weather, up to 14 degrees, and the tyres didn't seem to mind at all.
But recently there's been plenty of snow and this is where they excel!!
The grip is huge compared with summer tyres.
I experimented with hill starts on compacted snow where summer tyres would have been totally useless. The grip provided by the winter tyres enabled an easy hill start. Cornering on compacted snow has proved equally as impressive.
Braking on sheet ice is reasonable if you are gentle on the brakes - after all, ice is ice!
I have covered a distance of 1500 miles so far so cannot reliably give an opinion on wear.
So my verdict is a simple one: Although it's a budget tyre it does what you would want it to do and you should consider this brand in confidence.
