Pros
- Exceptional tread longevity and durability
- Affordable price point
- Predictable performance in dry, fair-weather conditions
Cons
- Poor wet-weather grip and traction
- Increased risk of skidding or loss of control in rain
- Lack of road feedback and confidence-inspiring handling
- Tendency to trigger ABS systems prematurely during braking
Worth knowing
- Users frequently report that the tire's longevity is inversely proportional to its grip, suggesting a very hard rubber compound.
- Performance issues are most pronounced during seasonal transitions, specifically when moving from dry summer conditions to wet autumn or winter weather.
