Excellent wear rates but tyre noise levels starting to increase as tyres reach end of life (approx 3mm at present).

Only done a few since I had the tyres fitted, so far no complaints, will get the same tyres for the front when they need replacing

Comment:
These tyres where great to start with but got noisy after a while. The grip was very good but the tyre wear was quite poor and they seemed to wear unevenly. I have now got BF Goodridge g-force Profiler's which have better grip, deeper(250mm as opposed to 200) and wider (10% extra contact area)tread and are cheaper in the UK.
