Given 66% while driving a Nissan X Trail 2.5 petrol (215/65 R16) on mostly motorways for 10,000 average miles
Bought a second-hand X-Trail with these fitted and done 10000 miles in about 4-5 months. Tyres had a lot of tread when I bought it, but are now down to about 2mm on the front so not really impressed with the wear. Grip proved to be fine in the snow when on the farm tracks and travelling fairly slow, but the ABS was working overtime when travelling down the back roads in snow/ice (although admittedly this was probably down to them being worn). Overall OK and will buy them again, but if they don't last longer than 10000 miles or so I'll be buying something else.

Given 56% while driving a Nissan Qashqai (215/60 R17 H) on a combination of roads for 27,000 spirited miles
High quality tyres that have lasted for around 27000 miles with 2mm on the front and 4mm on the back. They feel grippy in the dry but don't inspire confidence in the wet, for example they feel more prone to aquaplaning than tyres I've used in the past such as Goodyear efficient grips. For that reason, and their relatively high rolling resistance, I'm not purchasing them again. I don't mind having a slightly higher wear rate for improved wet performace, especially living in a country like the UK!

Given 26% while driving a Ford Kuga (225/45 R17) on mostly town for 7 easy going miles
I have a Ford Kuga with 19" Bridgestones, once the car had reached 5k the noise became unbearable. Ford and Bridgestone are aware of this problem which can only be rectified with new shoes! The noise that fills the cockpit is a whump whump / whoop whoop noise which the uneven tread on the road makes. Continentals for us next time, if I can stick the noise for much longer!

Given 53% while driving a Volkswagen Tiguan (235/55 R17) on a combination of roads for 4,000 average miles
4000 miles only in new Tiguan, poor feel but most noticeably utterly useless on snow or ice.

Given 63% while driving a Volkswagen Touareg (265/50 R19) on a combination of roads for 5,000 average miles
Very good dry grip, both cornering and braking, though I would not say they are overly communicative. Wet performance has given me no cause for concern. Wear appears reasonable, measuring depth used so far I expect to get at least 20000 from a set. That's the good points, however I find the tyres ride very hard, appear to inhibit the steering's self-centering and track very oddly (terrible tendency to follow camber to the point I had 4 wheel alignment check). Also a little noisy, Have just swapped to my winter set and suddenly I have a more comfortable and better steering car. So though I will continue to use tyres until worn, I probably would not replace with same.

Just bought a Ford Kuga with 10k miles.The noise and handling from these tyres was TERRIBLE. Took car back and tyres replaced with Continental. It is a different car now!!I have heard there is a known concern with these tyres at FORD.

Given 36% while driving a Ford Kuga (235/45 R19) on a combination of roads for 10,000 average miles
What a dreadful tyre. Totally unsuitable for the Kuga. Tyre wear is ridiculous. I'll be needing a new front set soon and only done 10k. All my previous tyres on various new cars all 4x4 have lasted between 30-40k. Road noise make this the noisiest tyre I have ever driven on. Ought to be allowed free replacement althuogh I wouldnt actually want them even if they were free.
