The tires are very good. The vehicle they are mounted on covers many kilometers both in the city and on routes between cities. The tires stick well to the road and perform well on wet surfaces. I have no objections to them.

Tires perform very well even under heavy loads. They are quiet, they hold very well both on dry and wet asphalt. Unfortunately, I will not assess the economy in my car. As for durability, it is also too early to judge (about 7-8 thousand km).
