My experience: Dunlop SP Sport Ma 235/40/18(97Y), Contilice 215/60/16(99T), Goodyear UltraGrip Extreme 205/60/16(97H), Pirelli P7 215/55/16(97Y), Pirelli P Zero 255/45/19 (101W), Was Turanza (225/50/17), Hakapelita 7 245/60/18 and a number of lower cl tires. I must say right away that this rubber is the quietest and softest of the ones I have listed objectively. Confirmed by the opinion of many friends, asked purposefully. Winter will not compare. Before her, I thought that there was no sound insulation in the trade wind, it turned out there was noisy tires. Dunlop, Continental, Gudik, and P7 were in the trade wind. The Dunlop has the best brakes because it's wider, rides well on the water and holds a good rut, but is overly noisy and has huge rolling resistance. Turns into corners worse than Pirelli, despite the different sizes. The pros of the P7 are that it's quieter than the dunlop, and it's pretty solid. There were no problems for 3 years with overactive driving. But the Pirelli does not hold the track at all (even P Zero), the water is so-so, at 3.5 out of 5. The standard compared to them is Michelin Primacy 3. Complete silence, I did not expect, I was apparently ready for the worst. Softness . I thought I would not notice such a nuance, but not at all. The Pat began to ride like a 30th Camry, even though there is a stiffer suspension. I am not prone to exaggeration, I would this rubber for once if it were not so. But I have nothing to complain about in terms of comfort. Resist. did not notice rolling. With regard to manageability. Dunlop was good, but it was a pure sport, it fits the RSkam, Mkam or Vryksu (although the primacy will soften the Impreza, I think). And Michelin is certainly a very maneuverable rubber. I will even say that this is a pure golden mean. Subjectively and in the opinion of many comrades - I did not lose in taxiing. Maybe I lost a little in sharpness, but I had new sensations for myself, the drive did not go away, it changed, as I dreamed. But how much I bought in comfort. Until the moment of the first km on it, I was convinced that we had to choose between sport and comfort. This rubber connects the two coasts. For those who fry and who have children and a comfort-loving wife. Pat 2.0t ~ 250hp. Hope it helped. Good luck
