Live treathning! normal on dry conditions.
If you drive normal.
DANGEROUS in the wet. my wife refuses to drive in the wet.
I drive in the wet as an very old lady and stil have to
countersteer and drift al the time.
After 10000km no sign of wear. But i'm trowing them in the bin.
No Chinees tires for me anymore!
Back to continental.

Had two of these on the front of my new car, after my first long journey I was ready to take it back to the garage due to a horrible loud noise at motorway speeds (60-80), after two bad experiences on mildly moist roads at low speed both cornering up hill and coming to a stop downhill I got rid of them straight away.

The noise has since vanished and they are the worst bits of rubber I have ever had the poor luck to drive on. Your life is not worth the £££ you save buying these.

These tyres are just terrible. Admittedly they're fairly well worn but the dry grip is just awful. Any attempt to pull away briskly results in them letting go. Little feedback is provided through the wheel at all times. I've not driven them in the wet and am actively avoiding doing so.

Purchased the car with these tyres - so cant compare with any others at the minute.
Posting this review as a word of warning - all four tyres have cracked on the inside wall - there is a single crack going around the whole circumference of the tyre. The tyres are two months old and done 4700 miles.
For reference the geometry of the car is correct, the tyres are at the correct pressure and load index for the car.

I bought these tyres originally as a stop gap but have been really impressed with how long they have lasted...much longer than the Dunlop and Michelins I've had on my A4 previously....I've done over 18000miles on these tyres (front tyres) and they are only now needing replaced. No problems with grip/handling in the dry and as long as you take care in the wet no problems at all. Would definetley conside these tyres again

Bought a pair of these about 18months ago.

Not gonna waste my time commenting about dry/wet handling properties - I drive sensibly & within my own limitations & those of the car I drive.

Sliding round roundabouts on wet roads as per some of the other comments I've read, is probably more symptomatic of poor driving rather than poor tyres !!!!!

Wear rate wise, has to be said, for the money they're pretty impressive (In my opinion !)

However, I'm currently in the process of replacing said tyres due to cracking of the outer sidewalls on both items (haven't checked the inner walls) - After probably 15000 miles they look like someone's been at 'em with a stanley knife & started to carve a very neat split around approx. 60% of the circumference.

Have read similar comments on other sites & unfortunately this does seem to be a bit of an issue.

I've learn't my lesson, no more Chinese cheapies for me !!!!!!!!!!!

Absolutely appalling tyre- complete waste of money. The worst thing for me is the noise. I did a 200 mile motorway trip last night between 60 and 80mph and it irritated me constantly. Its not any better at lower speeds either. They don't handle the road very well either, the car just doesn't feel right. Normally I enjoy driving, but these tyres have ruined the experience completely! Will be changing as soon as I can afford to.

Absolutely awful tyres, these were on my car when I bought it and I'm just about to replace them as I don't want to leave them on my car any longer. I've driven with them on for 6 months now and frankly can't find anything good to say about them at all, these are very poor even by budget standards. In the recent cold weather with temperatures dropping below 5 degrees, they are literally dangerous, no grip at all in cold, damp conditions even when driving cautiously. Also very noisy, wear is pretty good but seeing I'm too scared to drive my car in anger with them on, it's hardly surprising! Avoid at all costs.

Horrible cheap tyres had them fail me a MOT after 8 months from new due to cracking, had new tyres fitted and the FullRuns had a 360 crack round the inside of each tyre, very dangerous, they may be cheap but that's because the grip is Aawful my 530d would have to go round a wet rbout at 15mph or would fishtail. Avoid at all costs.

The tyres were already fitted on the front wheels when I bought the car and were only a couple of thousand miles old. My initial impression was reasonable for a budget tyre and found the grip level to be pretty good. And then it rained. At which point the car became almost un-drivable with zero feedback and no warning that they were going to lose traction.
I had a trackday booked and didn't have chance to get new tyres beforehand, but luckily the trackday was bone dry, so I set out to destroy the tyres. Apart from considerable understeer, they performed admirably well. In the dry they gave good feedback and were progressive in their understeer, not bad for a fairly big, heavy car. They even wore well on track, so I couldn't kill them and took them off today to replace them with another brand that would let me drive safely on road over winter. As the tyres still have 5mm of tread left I've put them at the back of the garage and may even re-fit them next summer to do motorway miles on......we'll see.

Excessively noisy. I thought there was a bearing failure initially in the wheels and then the diff.

Absolutly no way would i buy these tyres, bought an audi A4 Quattro with these tyres already fitted, In the wet this car goes over roundabouts, oversteers like a bitch. Need to change and they are no where near the limit, only about half worn. Road noise is excessive aswell. Do not buy these unless you drive like Miss Daisy!!
