Came as standard on my '21 Megane RS 300
Stupid good grip in the dry, but I think that's more the car/4 wheel steer than the tires. Nontheless, very good.
SKETCHY in the wet. More than 25% throttle in 2nd or 50% throttle in 3rd and the fronts are spinning. This car has a tendency to spin the fronts but it's laughably bad in the wet with these tires. And the lateral grip is even worse, I went a little hot into a roundabout when I first got the car, wet morning, nobody around, ended up more sideways that I've ever been in a FWD car, hit the steering lock counter steering. To give credit, the side was easier to control than expected, but still shouldn't have happened. No bueno.
Everything else is good to average. Will be buying PS5 when these die, but they're 14k miles in and still have 4mm front 5mm rear so wear is excellent.
