Just getting to the end of life on these after a pretty impressive 29000 miles. I only got them in the first place as they were the only decent brand tyre at a good (dicounted ~£125 fitted) price. I think they were worth the £30 more than a midrange brand as I would have never expected to get 30000 miles out of a set of tyres.
Admittedly most of my driving is on the motorway, but I don't tend to go steady around the numerous roundabouts near me. In the wet, there is the tendancy to lose traction when trying to pull away quickly, but not as bad as in my wifes mondeo with Avon zz3's on the front, they're awful for it.
Generally my experience with these as a durable, comfortable, well handling tyre has been good enough that they'll be going on the car again.
