These ( the LS588 UHP ) are good. Don't get confused with the ls988s though. The 588 UHP are "ultra high performance" ones.

I usually spend £120 PER tyre on brand made tyres for my Audi A1 as I like to drive with passion. I don't mean boy racer fast - but I enjoy my car with plenty of torque. So these where cheap at £46 a tyre. Big savings.

I bought a set of these for a new set of alloys ( 17 inch low profile ) then took the car to Wales to drive about the winding roads with a little passion. These tyres are good / and I purposely chucked the car about to see if they would step out of line or slide. Nope. Held to the dry road pretty decently. After a while I got my confidence up with them so pushed it a little more - and they honestly felt ok. Quiet to for a budget range. Smooth to.

I was relieved actually - because for a moment I thought they might be completely horrid - but not the case.

Braking was decent to in the dry - and I didn't notice a massive difference from my previous branded tyres at mega money. Overall - I felt id made a good purchase.

After a few days it rained / so I gave them a try on WET roads.

My last tyres were awesome in the wet - but for £120 a tyre they better be. These 588s UHPs were actually pretty good and credit to them; held their own. Grip was good. No sliding on corners or anything to step the car to the side. Not quite as sharp as a £120 tyre; but I didn't feel like I needed to slow my driving down or hold back as I normally would. I felt confident with them in the wet.

Braking was ok to in the wet. Again. Not quite as sharp as my last tyres but non the less safe, solid and controlled. It certainly wasn't like my stopping distance drastically increased (throwing me into the car in front)

I think these are worthy of being fitted to most people's cars - especially those who like to drive with a little umph. They are a bargain price in comparison to the brands so worth a try.

As for how long the tread last ?...- to early for me to say. That could be the bad side of them ...... But you've got to try them and find out for yourself.

For the money incredable! My car drives more relaxed now. When i drive agressive it feels like everything is Ok. It steers in wet and dry conditions with a bit more resistance (maybe the exellent grip on the road?)

Great tyres For My Passat b6. Comfort++
