What a fcn disaster! These tires for vw up were just awful! Thought theyd be okay but after nearly spinning out on a damp roundabout:           not once, but twice-I was like, nope, these gotta go.
 The back end was all over the place, even at normal speeds. And dry Felt like I was driving on jelly, no confidence at all. Switched em out for some premium ones after just a few months-best decision ever. Seriously these were like driving on ice, even on dry roads. Total nightmare!
