Soft summer tire, doesn't last more than 30k, but I didn't buy them for wear rating. They handle very, very well, and are even better in the rain. You get A LOT for your $$$ right there!

This tyre is a genuine deal for the price. However, there is a compromise between performance and cabin noise. These tyres are great performers, but if your interest is in an attempt to achieve a smooth and silky ride with a minimum level of cabin noise, these tyres aren't for you. Practical result: a large tyre for performance enthusiasts with a limited budget.

I had a predecessor for 6 winter seasons. That's why I choose this too. However, I don't regret it. Super handling in any conditions. Very easy to mount and to remove the tires. Excellent price-performance ratio.

These tires are now 6 months old. Only just used them in the snow last week so not enough information to make a good rating, but I do love the tires. They were at their best period price-wise and still look the same, wear nice. I probably could have got 20,000km out of them and for my AWD vehicle, that's pretty good.

Also great traction on loose surfaces - gravel, mud and stuff I don't know, they do it, but they grip. No snow here, so I didn't think so. Great all-terrain tires, great performance and a great price ...

The problem I did not like when the vehicle sat overnight in cold weather, the tires would have a flat spot, it would feel like 4 flat tires during the 15 min ride in the morning to get the tires round again.

I run a track setup with 235/35-19 fronts, 275 rears. Extremely quiet, smooth and incredibly grippy in both dry and wet conditions. With a wear rating of 400, they barely broke in after 5k miles, which is very good considering the cost of tires in these sizes. I've gone through two sets of Hankook and Kumho in the same sizes under 10k miles each, and they were neither as grippy nor as comfortable as these

I've used these tires on my front wheels, which are 19x9 +9 offset. They are a soft compound, and I'm running at 1.5-2 degrees of negative camber. I'm getting about 4-6 months of use before I need to flip them, which I'm getting about 8-12 months of use out of the entire tire. I've found the sidewall of this tire to be extremely strong and durable. No cracks or feathering

So far Achilles ATR sport tires have proven themselves to be a good value. Only unfortunate that they come in a larger size than 285 on the rear of my vehicle due to the chessnut locking mechanism.

I have these tires on my summer wheels for my 97 Passat Wagon. Great in dry and rainy conditions. They wear well, as well. I didn't plan on them, they made it through the snow and got me through a small snow storm while in the northern part of PA. I wouldn't recommend them for all-season tires, but I'd still buy them again. Very good tires.
