Brought SV 308 for my 55 reg Freelander. Fantastic tyre all round much better than Michelin for a third of the price.

WOW, bought these tires over the Dunlop Sport Signature i had last year. They are excellent and the wet traction was very good, i can't understand why some people say their not good in the rain sorry but it's total BS. I have driven these on the coquihalla highway for over 15000K in the rain and on dry roads going fast around corners and pushing them to the limits. The ride is very quiet and not to hard on the bumps I have nothing bad to say as i'm very happy and suprised in how good these tires are. I paid $536 installed and was not expecting much, but their excellent and i'll be buying a pair as soon as they wear out. They compare to my Dunlop, BFG and my pirelli tires

On the car when bought, I have had no problems with these tyres in all weather (including snow). They are 50 profile so they're a bit firm on bumpy roads, they are a bit noisy on some too, but I've done 25k with them and I'm buying a new set... speaks for itself really.

I'm really happy with the grip on these tyres, bought 4 new ones, been driving them for a while now, today was raining and I was deliberately breaking hard on wet road and no skidding at all. Quiter than my last ones I had (wanli/primewell - front/back) and comfier too... not as good as the Firestone I had, but for the price range class, they are defenitely good buy.

Got 2 for front end great price to replace GYNCT5s.at first they felt soft till I added 1psi made all the difference great dry grip also good below 6 to -2.5..as for wet they cope as well as the nct5,s. On the roads of the west coast of scotland.(300+) wet days a year.
The engine runs quieter with more mpg. At 1/3 the price great buy certainly buy again...

I've done 40,000 miles with these tyres on the fronts, and they are absolutely brilliant!!
I don't drive like a granddad, and i can say these are the best tyres i've ever owned.
Super quiet, definitely grippy, If Carlsberg tyres these are what they'd be like:)

Amazed by these tyres. I wasn't expecting a lot as I just needed 4 cheap tyres for the MOT, but what a surprise. They grip as well as the Dunlops I replaced in the dry and grip much better in the wet (but that may be more to do with tred than tyre!)I little less progressive when pushing it.
They are a LOT better on fuel economy, over 10% improvement immediately.
For anybody looking for a budget tyre these really are just superb and as good as many premium tyres I have used over the year and a lot better than any other budgets.

Cheap tyres already on car. Good dry grip, not so good in the wet. Noisy compared to premium tyres of the likes of Bridgetone, Michelin, Pirelli. But what do you expect with a tyre that costs 1/3 the amount of one of them. Some people who say the have lost control with these, learn to drive and adjust oyur driving style to the weather accordingly.

Given 73% while driving a BMW 120i (225/40 R18 W) on mostly motorways for 1,000 easy going miles
Bought 2 of these tyres for the front end. They're pretty good value for money. The grip in the dry is OK, in the wet its reasonable. Only real bad side is that the comfort isnt super. But what do you expect from budget tyres. So in my oppinion: Good tyres of you are a easy going driver who adapts his driving style to the weather and road conditions. Would probably buy them again.

Good on asphalt. Not good on snow, i dont understand why they have m+s winter mark, they definetly are no winter tyres but on summer they are ok. they have probably very strong construction as they are not soft at all to drive and also wear very slowly. probably you are notice difference between 3x higher price tyres but i cant say that they are bad or dangeros. i think it is good joice if u dont want spend too much to tyres.
