I had to write this review purely because of the most upvoted review here. That person admits they are bad on greasy wet roads but says simple solution. "Dont Race" that is without doubt the most ridiculous advice ive ever heard with regard to fixing a tyres poor grip. So what happens if you need to swerve to avoid an animal or person or if you need to brake hard. I had these tyres on my old bmw. They were on it when i bought it. As the other person said, in the dry they are a fine tyre, absolutley nothing wrong with them and if you live somewhere that never sees rain then yes they are a decent option and decent value for money. I am from Ireland, where there are as many if not more wet days a year than dry. When it rains these tyres are without doubt worse than anything ive ever experienced . Not bordering on dangerous they are actually lethal. How there is no standard that must be achieved for wet grip of a tyre is beyond me. These are far far worse than full bald tyres ive driven with on the wet. Please please dont think they will do . They wont. Pick any other tyre that you are given an option of because these could cost you your life. Maybe that other person lives in a city where they never go above 50kph(30mph) i dont know and never experienced how truely dangerous these tyres are. I changed them and got hankooks at the time and the car was transformed. Please please saty away from accelera phi. They are so dangerous in the wet
