Performing well, no longer sliding out
They felt ok when new but i was shocked at mot to be told i needed new tyres on front so wont buy again
Tyres are excellent because they are the top range of the top brand.
Car is a Mazda 3 Sport Nav 120PS. First off, these are WAY quieter than the Yokohamas that were fitted when I got the car. Dry grip is excellent, wet grip is pretty impressive too. I've only broken traction pulling away twice and both times it was cold and very wet. Pushing it into corners is predictable with good feedback. Overall, very impressed with these. I'd probably look at 220/40's next time though as the Mazda wheels will take them, the speedo error is minimal and they cost WAY less!
Grip and handling excellent, but they seem a bit stiff resulting in a harsh ride. Also road noise is quiet on perfectly surfaced roads but irritatingly noisy on roads where the surface is less than perfect. If anything they are noisier than the Pirellis that they replaced. Ironic that this was one of the reasons I chose to replace them.
A bit of a hard ride
Very good grip gives confidence when driving but slightly on the louder side
Fantastic, much better than the factory fitted Pirelli P Zero that come from the factory. A must for a mini JCW owner!!
They are performing as expected
