Hello, I bought 2 bouquets in July 2008 and drive ahead in my Xsara from 2000, I rate them well, the car firmly sticks to the straight road and in the corners. I traveled about 2000 km on them and I am satisfied with them, they drain the water quite well during the rain as well as when entering the puddle. For this price they are ok

There is no problem with grip on dry and wet surfaces. With the tyre width of 205, there are 3 channels that drain the water well. They have one major disadvantage: they are loud. For me it is a very big drawback. It does not irritate me much while driving around the city, but even the radio does not help during longer trips.

I cannot use these tyres anymore just because of an asphalt type in Ireland. It is almost like a sandpaper. My Ford Mondeo is not a light vehicle. The Kormoran GAMMA B2 tyres provided me with perfect grip but they worn out quickly. I do not think it is a fault of the tyres. The tyres are doing well on a dry surface. They are a little bit softer than the previous model. They did not cause any problems on wet surfaces. Moreover, they enabled me to drive faster in corners. The main reason of a fast tread wear I mentioned is the surface I had to drive on. The Kormoran GAMMA B2 tyres are remarkably quiet. You almost cannot hear them. It is difficult to point out any negative aspects. These tyres are one of the best I have ever had.

The tyre is worth money spent on it, at least according to me. I am surprised by the rewiews of people who write how bad the tyre is. As a rule, these are people who prefer "aggressive" driving. If they have a sporty spirit, they should buy sports tyres. The Kormoran Gamma offers decent grip on both wet and wet surfaces. The tyre is quite loud, but there is no tragedy. Comfort (cushioning of road inequalities) at a good level. I think that we will not buy anything better for this price. All in all, I recommend it

The Kormoran tyre tread wears off very quickly. After covering around of 12,000-15000 km, the tread is on the limit of usability (about 2mm). I was driving 2-3x as far on Dębica tyres! Other driving parameters for quiet driving were acceptable (comparable to Dębica). Therefore, due to the economics of Kormoran tyres I do not recommend them.

Tyres are extremely loud in the 80-90 kmh range and above 130. Despite the cool tread pattern and the deep-cut at the first glance, in two or three years there may be a problem in the case of an over-zealous policeman - the grooves are shaped so that in some places the incisions are more shallow about 3-4 mm and I do not mean the wear indicator of the tyre. When it comes to safety, the tyre holds well both on dry and wet surfaces and is equally solid on curves.

After 1 season and less than 20,000 km, 3 mm of tread has gone. Rather much. I thought they would serve about 3-4 years - ain't happening. This is a low-budget tyre, but I'm afraid that it won't even offer 2 seasons of usage.... I'd think about it three times, before considering buying them again. For people with mileage of up to 10k per season it may be viable.
