I bought this tire three years ago, and I'm not sorry. The car didn't look very confident over the first few thousand kilometers; when the gas was released, it entered the corners, but when it was pressed, the rubber bit into the road. After a while, it seems as though the spikes got a little worn out and I stopped noticing it. Tires are completely happy. Although I won't claim that my driving is calm, I haven't lost a single spike in three years.
