Although they're not long-lasting (after 2 years, 38,000 km, performance suddenly became very low) I'm going to buy a new set. The best tires I've ever had.

I was looking for low noise tires. And this exceeded expectations. Also the grip and handling is on a high class. Better than Uniroyal RainSport and Dunlop SP01.

Increase in tire noise and periodic reduction as the tire wears out. (Noisy weeks and quiet weeks...) After 20000KM on smooth highways, with a total of 3.5mm profile on the left.

It's better for this vehicle to be installed on the rear axle. A very straightforward answer, the tire is wider than expected, and therefore may lead to a heavier steering.
