A great set of UHP tires for an unbeatable price!
I was looking for a set of UHP all-season tires for my 1999 Volvo wagon (that's not quite stock). I immediately went to the Michelin Pilot Sport AS4 and Continental DWS06+, both tires that I have had on other cars and loved. However, I remember hearing about these tires years ago as a competitor to the orginial DWS06 and Pilot Sport AS3+, and even then getting positive remarks for their driving feel. Are these as good as the Pilot Sport AS4 and DWS06+? To put it simply, no. BUT, for the price I got them for it was excellent value for money. One thing I would argue though is that these tires are extremely FUN! The limit of grip may be slightly lower than the other 2, but the progression towards the edges of grip are very fun to play with on these. They communicate what they're doing very well with excellent feel and audible squeel before you get anywhere near their limits. They released an improved version of this tire recently which I am excited to try out.
