3D software was used to design the tyre profile and do simulation tests to allow the best possible results to be gained before creating samples, maximizing the water dispersal, rolling resistance and performance of the tyre.
Wider section grooves between tread blocks allow better drainage performance. Serrated grooves on the tread block walls reduce road noise and quickly disperse water, whilst chamfered lateral grooves on the tread shoulder also help to reduce the rolling noise.

Great comfort tyre if you're mostly commuting. Has decent grip levels BUT this is not a sport tyre, the sidewalls are flexy which gives the comfort but the handling feedback is poor. Ultimate grips levels in wet and dry are up there with some summer tyres however you don't get the road feedback. There's actually a noticeable half second delay on steering inputs.

Excellent tyre that has endless grip in wet and dry driving conditions, very suited to my enthusiastic driving style in a rwd sport saloon.

Good ‘feel’ from the car, positive turn-in, strong overall grip levels and a progressive break-away when traction is breached

Main factor to buy them was A-rated wet grip at low price and I'm not dissapointed. Considering weight of my car it drives absolutely confident on wet roads as well as dry.
