I've had this tire for a few days now. Here's what I have to say about it: It holds the road great, but is very sensitive to uneven surfaces, road noise is high, and it's relatively stiff. I drive a Subaru Impreza GC, and I love to push the limits, so for those thrill-seekers who like to drive with the wind in their hair, this is the right tire. However, be very careful on slippery corners, as it will put

A worthy tire with a sports bias
An excellent tire for those who value the feeling of the car more than comfort! On these tires, you really feel the smallest nuances of the car's behavior, but the price for this is increased noise and stiffness. On wet asphalt and a surface covered with a dirty film, the tire does not show equally outstanding coupling properties. In terms of pattern, it is close to a pseudo-slick, so the results on a wet surface are quite average. The

BMW F20, 225/50R16 car.
I was worried for a long time when buying used ones, but I'm not regretting it. The tires are noisy and slippery when they are cold, but after 30 minutes of driving, everything changes for the better. The tire holds the road very well and the reactive hum is slightly reduced. It's also very good on a wet and dry road. They don't lose their shape much.

Size: 195/50 R15. Bought in 2006. Replacement was only considered after the 2011 season. The tire has passed FOUR seasons (one summer the car was stationary)!!! Wear is currently 60-80% depending on the front/rear wheel alignment. Excellent tire! Two seasons ago I got a sidewall defect on the front wheel, but the rim was completely destroyed. I bought a new rim and moved the tire to the rear. Still going strong! Non

Unbeatable high-altitude performance, but no comfort to speak of. Ran on 205/45/17 - oak wood, very scary, a puncture can be hard to spot, noticed only when the traffic police slapped me with it. The tire survived the torture, the wheel was still intact. The sidewall felt like plastic - couldn't grip it with my hands. Managed to not lose a single wheel on the Tver roads, despite driving into such potholes that I got

I once bought a car, VAZ 21099, which had already been upgraded to the maximum, however, when it was sold, the wheels were replaced with some cheap ones, and Camu 205 was installed, the impression was - noise like in an airplane, turning at 90 degrees was deadly - an attempt to fly away, after buying the car, the question arose about disks and tires. I bought Japanese forged wheels, and then 520, there was no limit to the surprise

Super discomfort.
The tires came with the car with noticeable wear already. The employee who bought the car couldn't understand for a long time - what's going on, actually? Why is it so stiff? even - STIFF! She came to us, complained. Collective mind won, her tires were changed. The Opel became unrecognizable.

It erases the asphalt, not itself......
I bought Yokohama A520 R14 185/60 on April 9, 2004, for my 2109. I drove out of the mounting shop onto the road and was very surprised!!! The car drives on the road like a train on rails, it's become a pleasure to steer, turns can now be taken at even higher speeds without fear of skidding!!! The braking distance from 100 km/h has become

The faster you drive, the farther you'll go
I bought used ones on 15 disks, installed them on my ninth car. Now I drive without fear of skidding off the road. In the rain, it's a blast, while driving on it, I didn't know what aquaplaning was, sand is dangerous for it, so be more careful on the shoulders. The tires are really worth it, worth not only in terms of characteristics, but also in terms of price

I've driven a lot on these tires. It feels like they're glued to the road, the car responds amazingly to the steering wheel, it dives into water and follows the line I've clearly outlined. It doesn't skid in turns. I don't regret the money spent in exchange for such feelings.
