The quality is top notch, be sure to try it.

A top-notch summer tire from a world-famous North American manufacturer, perhaps one of the best balanced summer tires today. Wear-resistant, but rather soft tire. It has a noise level almost at the level of the best summer tires (for example, rubber from Michelin). Rolling resistance and fuel economy are also among the best in the class.

Those tires that I got were made in Germany. The price is not too expensive, average for a modern high-performance rubber of a well-known brand, in today's conditions.
I recommend buying for those who are interested in the balance of characteristics, wear resistance and, at the same time, low noise level of tires.

Pros

Good handling performance on any surface, braking distances on dry and wet roads, good resistance to transverse aquaplaning. Noise level is one of the lowest compared to other well-known tire brands. The rubber is soft but durable (wear resistance is 50% higher than the previous generation, according to the manufacturer). Low rolling resistance and excellent fuel economy.

Cons

1. Judging by the tests on independent cars. sites - has not the best resistance to longitudinal aquaplaning. Although its value is still no worse than the average of modern top-end summer tires. 2. The price, alas, bites. But in the current situation in the country, today it is typical for all of the top ten world-famous brands - tire manufacturers.
