Had a Bridgestone Potenza S001 (£100) after puncture - lasted 4months!!! Put these Viking Protech II's on in May 2014 (£65each) - Still got a couple mm left! Not much worse performance than the Bridgestone Potenza. Not too noisy, good in dry and wet, never slides. 185bhp S60 and I drive hard. Would recommend, but I'm upgrading to Hankooks V12 K120's. (Have also had Viking Snowtech's for winter. Bargain for the performance.

Remap to 190bhp - the Viking Protech II's really make a good case for themselves against higher priced competition such as Bridgestone, Michelin and Conti.
