I was surprised by the quality for this price.

At first I was extremely upset by the wear and tear - it seems that mileage of 30,000 for a replacement is not serious. However, one friend who sells rubber told me very important words (by the way, he did it disinterestedly - he is in Hong Kong, I am in Hong Kong, he had zero profit) - bad tires differ from premium in that premium does not change its character regardless of degree of wear. I remembered these words at a very decent speed on my contacts, which already need to be changed, and I thought that the next ones would be exactly from the top manufacturers - Continental, Michelin, Bridgestone, Good Ear, Pirelli. If handling is important, if you want to drive 200+ and enjoy the car, and not catch it on the road and pray, you have to pay and accept that this is achieved, among other things, due to rubber mixtures that wear out faster than desired

Pros

The tire is excellent in terms of handling - it steers well, brakes well, aquaplaning performance is also good, it jerks only frankly in deep puddles in ruts at a speed of over 100. Rubber is durable - not a single bump, although low profile and pits sometimes occur. In a very strong rut it sometimes jumps, but here the size - 265/45 R20 makes itself felt

Cons
