Customer Reviews
These are a very nice upgrade from the Michelin run-flats on our C7 Corvette. Can’t tell yet about tread life. And I had no preconceived expectations about tire noise, so I don’t know if they are “as quiet as I expected.” Long story short: very pleased with these tires and how they perform on our car.
My fourth set of this exact tire in 14+ years. On my 2nd "Audi Allroad" (2003 & 2022), bought the 2003 in 2011 used so since then... in my view this is the definitive tire for my German station wagon, these tires do it all. A+++
