good tires but at 27,000 kilometres they will be done by 30,000. I don't believe these tires are particularly well suited to NZ roads, probably better on euro roads? with AWD you certainly get the grip and sure-footedness, but this does come at the price of tire wear. these are a summer tire, I might look for an all season tire next. just on here doing my research before I decide what I want instead of these

I fitted these tyres after a set of Yokohamas (great btw) to have a sporty tyre that was also runflat and long lasting. They are a bit noisy, but generally all RFT tyres are. Much more comfortable than the P7 Cinturato that came with the car. The tyres were very good even at the end of their life, they dropped performance on the last 1000km at the rear especially (they were done). I only experienced a slight issue when hitting water with only one of the tyre in a bend, the car unsettled and the traction control got confused for a second, but generally were very good on wet and acquaplaning so, maybe was a combination of tyre-car-surface-speed. I would recommend them for 4WD cars such as mine, very progressive even when you push them.

This is my first car and didn't know that these tires could be that bad almost cost the lives of my family. I bought this new car from official seller in my city and didn't imagine the tire that came with the car could be in almost totally broken condition after around 4 years. I only drove around 12000 miles with very normal speed. A lot of parts on the tires have already missing and any human can easily tell using these tires were extremely dangerous. I read a lot of user reviews and pick PS4/F1A5 after I learn that I was in big risk with these tires and I didn't even know. The funny thing is this tire is not even cheap at all. I normally don't write review but I hope this review can save your life. I learn so much about tire after seeing these broken tires attach to my car and make sure I would not make this same mistake again. By the way the broken conditions of all 4 tires are pretty even so it was not because any other road factors.

Annoying on-centre precision, too many steering corrections to keep it straight. This happened in my 130i and Megane rs175, I couldn't wait to change them just because of this. I fitted it in two cars because I couldn't believe how bad it was in the BMW and thought the car had a problem with the steering. And I wanted to like the tyre. But no, the Megane became crap with them too. Grip in the dry is and stability are quite good, but the balance is towards too much understeer and isn't fun to drive at all, especially on the BMW because you can't steer the car with the throttle. Not progressive enough in the wet, showing a decent grip limit, but too agressive breakaway and too long recovery time; I didn't trust this tyre in the wet, especially in the BMW. Wear is average if you drive gently. Comfort is borderline acceptable for me, as there's too many vibrations after the initial touch with impacts. This effectively reduces the peak force, but doesn't provide enough roundness or quality feel. I can't recommend this tyre as it doesn't suit my driving style nor my comfort preferences.

These were the original tyres fitted to the car on delivery from new. They have covered 20k miles. Mostly motorway driving. They are good in both dry and wet conditions. Wear has been reasonable albeit 75% of the miles have been covered on motorways, so relatively low stress driving. Performance is predictable but then again the Audi has quattro so it's difficult to be absolutely sure. The only criticism is that they are quite noisy.

I bought my used Mercedes four years ago and it had two just about legal Continental Sport Contacts on the front and new Yokohama Sport 245/45 R17 on the back. I immediately had the two fronts replaced with Continental Sport Contacts. Today I replaced those two tyres again after 22,000 miles (35,000 kms). The Yokohamas are long gone as they covered only 9,000 miles. I have been very pleased with the Continentals. Handling, wear, wet and dry grip are excellent. Comfort is fine, especially considering my car has slightly lowered suspension. The tyres are reasonably priced in the UK for a premium tyre. The Yokohamas are just £1 cheaper each than the Continentals. I replaced the Yokohamas on the rear with 245/45 R17 Sport Contact 5, they have done 13,000 miles and I estimate they will cover another 4,000-5,000 miles on my rear wheel drive car which has an automatic gearbox.

4y9m, 75000km. Amazing tires all in all, at the end the tires looked like they had maybe 5000-8000km left in them when looking at the tread but a puncture opened up a box of shock, inside the tire there was about 3-4 handsfull of rubber "dust" from the tire slowly disintegrating, I've had a feeling somthing was off for the past 4 months or so as the tires behaved different at highway speeds so I kinda knew it was time to change but the fact that the tire visually from the outside looked fine but was falling apart inside was a bit of a shocker, so for anyone else out there if your tires starts to feel like they are unbalanced... have a look inside the tire.

Fords O.E. tyres for our particular Fiesta ST-Line 140 PS. Consistently good performance all round, particularly good in wet, road noise could be better but essentially fine as do very few motorway miles. Low mileage use but often driven briskly with Italian road test ~ valves through the bonnet In lower gears ~ when safe to do so on our brilliant local ‘B’ roads. Rotated them at c.6000 miles.Tread depths all over 5.6mm approaching 9000 miles. Five mile trip three days a week plus more 50 mile+ ‘B’ road stuff as and when needed.

24 months old 10000 miles mainly in 30mph zone and need replacement on q5

Came with my new 1.6 diesel Renault kadjar. Front tyres worn out after 22500 miles which I was disappointed but judging by other reviews I did very well. I found they didn't like going over the shiney road joining strips but overall grip in wet weather seemed pretty good. Will try a more reasonable priced tyre for the replacement.

These tyres were fitted on my Audi A3 Sportback when I bought the car. They were virtually brand new so I thought happy days... How wrong I was! They're so noisy and unforgiving. Handling and grip is excellent. I'm glad they don't wear well, means I can swap them to a quieter tyre. Good Year Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2's will be what I go for next.

Excellent tyre, but spending 1,300€ for 12-15k kilometers is a waste. Very disappointing wear capabilities.
