Living in Poland, weather can be relatively stable and these tires give a nice grip and stability around 160-170 kmh speeds with pleasant response during (legal speed limits :P)

Quality for the price - very good. Superb on dry pavement, good grip on bends. In the wet, you have to be careful, but for aquaplaning to occur, you have to push the tires really hard at speed and in quite deep and long puddles. The tyres are not too noisy. I recommend them not because I already have one, but because what I have read about them on the internet and in the motoring press agrees in reality.

Tyres with good performance in terms of road holding. In terms of loudness, I noticed no difference between the Kumho and the previous Michelin, and the price is much lower.

The tyres grip the road very nicely, both in the wet and dry. Once they warm up you can really feel them sticking to the road. Really worth buying, probably the best choice at this price.

They seem cool in their summer price bracket. I haven't lost grip so far, apart from checking the brake stuck in the floor at 70mph, and they've done exceptionally well anyway. Used on a hybrid, so my only quibble is whether you can get the same characteristics at a similar price with lower volume.

A good tyre at a good price. It sticks nicely in the dry and also handles well in the rain. At this price, it is safe to recommend to anyone.
