Pros & Cons

Strengths

Excellent safety and performance in wet conditions, with top scores for aquaplaning resistance and short wet braking distances.

Strong braking performance and good grip on both dry and wet roads.

Comfortable and smooth ride quality.

Well-balanced tire suitable for everyday driving.

Weaknesses

Somewhat increased fuel consumption compared to competitors.

Handling can become oversteering and less stable in wet conditions, especially at the limit.

Steering response is sluggish and lacks precision in dry conditions, making the tire less suitable for sporty driving.

Lateral grip and stability at the rear axle on dry roads are only satisfactory, with noticeable sensitivity to load changes.
