Tyre wears well and performs well in dry conditions but in the wet the grip is low compared to other brands I have used. Construction I feel is on the soft side and as the wear increases the tyre can puncture more easily than other brands

Ideal as a budget tyre. Decent wet and dry grip and fairly quiet. Just don't push too hard.

Cheap tyres, decent amount of new tread however I found the construction a little soft on my Vauxhall Zafira, loads of wear on under inflated tyre to the point where sidewall thread appeared after a while, horrible wet and icy performance however these are touted as summer tyres. Got about 10k Miles on one tyre however other three still have about an additional 7-8k Miles estimated tread. Good buy if you are looking for a cheap tyre with fairly good performance but not for wet or icy conditions.

Never again. Very soft and comfortable but very unsafe when driving on motorways. Wasted money.
