The best purchase in my life, I will definitely buy it again.

The driving experience is simply amazing. Mondeo IV - a toad-ship, it would seem, but on these tires I get great pleasure from driving. My tires 215-50 R17 91V are made in Germany - the last German batch: now, it seems like, all sizes up to R17 inclusive - are made in Hong Kong.

Pros

Amazing tire - excellent road holding, excellent handling - it rulitsya just superb! And how it slows down is just something incredible. Firm grip in the rain or just on wet roads. Since rubber has a "sporty" character, it is strange to expect noiselessness or special premium comfort from it - if you want unconditional comfort, then take ContiPremiumContact. The same tire will hold the road perfectly, excellent, just phenomenal braking in dry and wet, and you will never get whistle from it in corners. Some write about rigidity - I wouldn’t call it rigid, it’s quite a civilian sport. Again - if you want comfort and softness - do not take sports-civilian tires, their goal is active driving, precise steering and precise braking (even in urban conditions), but not a premium soft-comfortable ride; for how this Kontik behaves on the road, you have to pay a little more noise and a little more rigidity. But in my opinion, it's worth it. And I repeat - I would not call it tough (you sit down on bridge adrenaline)))

Cons

These are not entirely disadvantages: it is noisy up to temperatures of 17-18 degrees, as it is warmer - it does not make much noise more than competitors. You also need to be careful when using at temperatures below 6-7 degrees (you can feel it by changing your shoes early) - it starts to tan and the colder it is, the more it tans, which, in principle, is logical - this is not an all-weather mixture, but a summer tire, which reveals itself only at stable spring positive temperatures and above. And about noise - very much depends on a covering. Good asphalt - no complaints. Asphalt is worse or variegated - yes, it will make more noise.
