I recommend to buy, the product is of high quality.

Seduced by reviews of acoustic comfort. I would prefer Michelin, but in my size 235/65 R17 the prices are off the charts. Yes, Michelin's quality is also falling: with incomplete wear, they began to crumble in pieces, a hum appeared.
2 weeks have passed.
During this time, he swept 3000 km: to the Crimea and back. There and on the first day back I was plagued by a sharp resonant noise, especially during acceleration. It subsided only at 120. Either because of the break-in, or because of a decrease in temperature, in the evening the noise began to subside. Now the noise is back to normal.

Pros

1. Soft, swallows bumps with a bang. 2. While the new ones are well, deep puddles slip through. 3. For universal, good handling and directional stability.

Cons

1. NOISE. In fact, the hum starts at 40 and rises to 80. On the previous Michelin Latitude Tour Ash Pi, noise was practically not audible at speeds up to 140, although the hum appeared on worn ones. 2. Again, compared to Michelin, acceleration and deceleration characteristics are noticeably worse. If at Michelin the car fired and stopped dead in its tracks, then at Conti it became more thoughtful. 3. The workmanship is not premium: at the tire fitting, 90g were hung on one side for balancing. I remember earlier on Kama it was even less. Maybe because "Made in Portugal"?
