These came stock on Hyundai Sonata Hybrid. 

Theyve been pretty good overall-quiet, comfortable and decent grip in wet conditions. However they dont perform well in snow and have worn faster than Id hoped. Theyve got about 61k miles on them, which is solid but theyre starting to show their age. 

Theyre a good all-season tire if you dont deal with a lot of snow but I might look for something with better winter performance next time.

Running these for 35000 spirited miles. They grip really well and are super quiet which is great for long drives. However the wear isn’t as even as Id like, especially with the front tires. 

Id say theyre a solid choice if you’re not looking to spend a fortune and need decent all-around performance.
