Run on my Jaguar S type for the last couple of years. Fronts still on from Dec 2017 and 10,000 miles on them and still a little left 4.5mm as for the rears on my second set with the first set lasting only 6000 miles. Second set down to 4mm left after 4000 miles. Will be looking for something else.

Given 84% while driving a BMW 535d M Sport (275/35 R18 W) on mostly country roads for 2,000 spirited miles
Car is e60 535d sport package. I have those tires on rear axle, compared to nankangs i get from previous owner its day and night comparision. In my prewious e60 i had goodyears and later continentals. In comparision with contis i would say they are rather similar in performance but contis(cs3 or 4,dont remember) wear out faster.
As for goodyears they in may experience they dont give much grip. As for v105 they are exelent, great grip in dry, realy impresive grip on wet(which was realy suprising). Handling is also realy good, road feedback is kinda weird but its propably due to car being just executive limusine not a sport car but overal with this kind of tires it rides and feels like sport car ;)

Given 81% while driving a Lexus IS200 (225/45 R17) on mostly country roads for 12,000 spirited miles
I have been running these tyres on my Lexus IS200 for 2 years now, covering around 20.000 kilometers.
Very spirited driving and I have also used these tyres on track days. When warm these tyres grip very well (both wet and dry) and have never surprised me. Sidewall is stiff and response is also good.
These tyres do not work well in freezing conditions and/or snow. When standing for a week, they need 2 miles of driving before they are round again.
Overall I am very satisfied with these tyres and they suit my sporty driving style.

Given 89% while driving a Alfa Romeo GT 1.9 JTD (205/55 R16 W) on a combination of roads for 20,000 average miles
Using them for 20.000 miles so far and still in excellent conditions. Tons of grip in dry and very good in the wet, in any case very easy to spot the limit so you can react to troubles in time.
Had to drive on light snow too and still safe enough, obviously without taking risks.
Fuel consumption average, bit of noise on the motorway but still not annoying, all considered very recommended tyres.

Given 92% while driving a Dodge Charger SE 300hp. (225/45 R20 W) on mostly town for 2,500 spirited miles
I have drove on this tyre for 2500 miles now
Mostly inside town and also on some bumpy roads around
The main positive thing is the dry traction + noise is better than most the other tyres and both mentioned points giving this tyre edge over otjer brands

Given 90% while driving a Honda Civic Type R (225/40 R18 W) on a combination of roads for 5,032 average miles
Previously had Pirelli's. Never rated them on any car Ive owned (RX8 and Megane 250 especially).

After wearing in and clocker over 5000miles, I still have around 5cm of tread. The car feels grippy and planted; alot more grip on the front. I can feel the car much better.

In the wet they stop very well, Never experienced aquaplanning but I drive accordingly.

I was impressed in the snow too; felt fantastic, never got stuck or made me lose confidence.

Highly rate these, Ill be putting these on my Juke Nismo RS soon.

Given 84% while driving a Honda Civic Type R (225/40 R18) on a combination of roads for 18 spirited miles
brilliant Tyre highly recommended, iv had Pirelli, Michelin, Goodyear, Hankook, Falcon, Continentals, etc! but this is one of the best Tyre's iv had on my car for a long time for both price, mileage & performance.
I am just about to have another pair fitted on the front of my car and they have been on my car approx 2 years & 3 months and covered about 18,000 miles of pretty hard driving.

Given 80% while driving a Mitsubishi 380 (225/45 R17) on mostly town for 6,500 spirited miles
Superb in the dry. Just grips around very hard corners, no tyre squeal. Straight line grip from a stand still is great also.
Wet grip is a bit of a step down. Straight line wet grip from a stand still, while still good, is slightly behind Pirelli Cinturato p7.
Comfort is great, however these are a higher profile than I normally get so that on it's own would increase ride comfort.
Have only had them a year so can't comment on wear.

Given 69% while driving a Peugeot RCZ 2.0 HDi GT (235/40 R19) on mostly country roads for 10,000 easy going miles
The Yokohama handle well and give good feedback however, they have lasted less well than my previous continental tyres and fuel economy dropped by about 4 mpg, although this seems to have been less of an issue as they have worn. In the long run I think that the continentals lasted nearly twice as many miles and were more economical.
