I had to buy 2 pairs of FRD16 as an emergency replacement for my budget cars mismatched and worn tyres. At time if purchasing this brand and model were available at the tyre shop. I paid £67 for each tyre for the fitment. I usually drive on motorways at 70mph + every day. I travel 60 mile in each day between my home and job place. I found the ride fairly bumpy, jumpy and noisy. Therefore, I wouldn't reccomend these tyre for frequent high speed motorway users... I also experienced a near miss hydroplaning at nearly 50 mph on a heavy rain on the motorway. FRD 16s' unsatisfactory wet performance is obviously noticeable whenever you hit the water puddles in the road on a rainy days at relatively high speeds. I think these tyres are well suited for a low speed city commuting in a congested traffic.
