Decent enough tyres. They worked out cheap for my Mini S, and handle nicely. I'd say if you had tyres fitted "that immediately fell apart" I'd either be going back to the garage or to the manufacturer as tyres don't just fall to pieces? I'm genuinely perplexed by that review? I shall update this one if it does fall to pieces, but if it does, then I shall be getting a refund, as tyres falling apart obviously isn't a normal thing for them to do. I'd expect a full refund or replacement for non-falling to pieces ones. Sorry, I don't understand that review. Were you racing it? What we're the details of these tyres just "falling to pieces"? I've never seen or heard of a tyre doing anything like that, unless the car has sat for 10 years.

Awful, fell apart almost as soon as put on. Wouldn’t use their services ever again if they offered to repair and pay me

Update on review I did in January.

The tyres grip really well in the dry and wet, however I have only had them on the car for 4 months and already I am down to 3-4mm (even) tread on both. One failed the MOT due to damage from a nail or glass, although it never punctured or leaked.

I think these must have a softer compound than many other cheap tyres which although means they have great wet and dry grip, they seem to be wearing really fast and I have only done about 3000 miles. I have not been racing or wheel spinning so will try Imperials when I have to replace these in the next few months.

Had a set of Tomket Sport rear tyres installed on my BMW E46 325Ci replacing some Continentals after damaging them due to potholes and I have to say I am really impressed.

Great grip and no issues so far. Too early to say about wear but when I need the fronts replaced I will certainly look to complete the Tomket set and they are around a quarter to a third of the price of the main brands.

Good grip, wet and dry. Feel fine, no issues.

Had them on the car for 15 months now. Bought them becouse of the good performance grades they recived online. And becouse they were the cheapest tyre in this dimension for an mk1 Skoda Fabia 1.4 8v. At first the dry grip seemed about 1/4 better than the previous tyres i got rid of. The Uniroyal rain experts in 175/65 14s. Wet grip was about equal :P Then i found some rough tarmac and gave them a good grating to remove any of the residual wax they came with when they were taken out of the moulds. My two cents at least o.O After that grip in the dry and in the wet improved about 1/4 for the better. Wich now makes them quite usable for lightly spirited driving in most but not all scenarios. The biggest suprise was in the winter in the dry during sub zero temperatures. Where the Uniroyals became hardened giant plastic bath plugs the tomkets kept there grip both during cornering and braking. As for snow there actualy what you would expect from a summer tyre. There better than driving on rims :D So my best results with them were after getting a bit of heat into them with five or six emergency stops. That should give you about an equal gain in terms of wet and dry braking and cornering grip. Handling in the dry can be decent as long as you use the brakes to transfer the weight of your vehicle around. Wet handling is not very good unless you are on relatively new ish tarmac. So in conclusion i would give them a mid range grade for dinamics and would recomend them for someone who needs a solid summer set that won't wear fast and won't brake the bank ;D Just be careful on OLD and WORN SMOOTH tarmac. Now when is that slalom race .....
