I've been driving on budget tyres for 10 years. 2 years ago, I decided to make a change and bought these. 2 years now, one is with 2mm thread and the other three were between 3 to 4.5mm. So with conservative driving and good alignments, they do last. In fact, if it wasn't for the 2 heavily broken ball joints, these tyres could have lasted 40'000 miles. (Yes, I driven on 2 broken ball joints for 10,000 miles, wear out the front heavily, then I rotate the tyres around.)
In terms of dry and wet grip. They were good, but I just somehow felt wet is slightly better than dry. Handling? I rarely test the limit of them, so I can't say. Comfort? Good initially, 2 years now, average I would say, since no tyres can not resist ageing no matter their brands.
Would I buy again? Depends on the price. I mean, I drives a lot (15'000 miles town driving per year). Sure grips are important, but wear and tear is what I valued the most. At its current price (£81.56), I would rather get Michelin Energy Saver Plus (£83.99).
