Work vehicle! Picked this tire for a long time, ended up with this one! Result: 300% satisfied. Mileage already 30-35,000 km, and wear is just 20%! Cuts through puddles like hot knife through butter! Speed: 110-150 km/h.

In general, the tires are good. I've driven them across all of Russia and Crimea. Worn out: didn't make it to the third season (I drive about 20-25,000 km per season). Handling: overly sensitive to road camber. This is probably the main drawback, but on a good road, they behave predictably. On a wet road (with proper driving), they behave well. Noise: quite loud at speeds above 100.

Put on Lada Granta, 195-55/15, 2.0 pressure. Driven 1200 km and satisfied with the tyres. Thought it would be stiff given the small weight of the car, but no, it rides like a ship over waves. The only thing I noted is that it strongly dislikes camber. Maybe it's only on the Granta due to the weak electric power steering. The price as of August 1, 2012, of 320

I put them on my old car and then put them on my new one. Already put over 50,000 km on them. I've tried to drive as much as possible. Tires are now in the scrap heap. The tires are excellent, but they intensely dislike potholes.
I drove them on the Black Sea from Moscow. No issues whatsoever. Pure pleasure.
Plus points: price, quality, high wear resistance.
Minus points: behaviour on dirt roads, they polish and don't

The tire is a real rip-off for the money. Killed it with driving in both city and country. One puncture due to an unrealistic pothole per year. Excellent traction.) Ran on it for about 60,000 km, take it without hesitation. No particularly aggressive wear noticed.

I'm extremely hard on tires. I want excellent handling in both dry and wet conditions with minimal tire wear. I've already had Bridgestone, Pirelli P Zero Nero, Falken fk542, etc... After reading many US websites, I became more interested in these tires. Finally, I bought them, drove them on my car and started testing after a few thousand kilometers. Grip, handling, braking, cornering, etc. From the mentioned tires, I was the happiest with the

First of all, let me say that for me, safety and comfort come first. Before "switching shoes," I checked and replaced everything I could on the setup. This time around, I approached the tire selection with a clear plan. I have to say that at temperatures below +7, I wouldn't recommend wearing them at all, as they don't work. However, once I got past that, I noticed a few positive aspects. Comfort and almost complete silence were the main ones. (

Tire is barely passing mid-grade, with a plus. With rapid acceleration, it tends to slip, and I'm afraid to drive into puddles at high speed. It's extremely soft, resulting in an increase in gasoline consumption. Operation for one season. Result: 2 cracks on different wheels. Noise after the bridge is completely absent. It's worth its money, but I won't put it on my car again.

So far one season - this isn't a tire, it's a bomb! The tread won't back down on me. Seriously, it revealed itself in spirited driving with a sporty stiff suspension and low-profile springs. In turns, there's a feeling of permissiveness, on straights, the car doesn't need to be controlled, the quick start is difficult - it slips more than it should, but the braking is excellent - almost impossible to let go of. It's perfect on water
