Definitely an underrated tire. These easily outperform the factory Hankook Ventus S1 Noble in every metric while coming in at a far lower cost. Traction is noticeably better, especially in wet conditions, while producing less road noise. Still too early to tell on longevity.
Good
The tires are a great fit for my car. I really like them. Everything was good until I got to my destination & the hub cap was missing on one of my tires, which made me very upset. However, I called the shop & spoke to Eddie who was very understanding & told me to come back the next day & they will order another one at no charge. Long story short, it took almost 2 weeks for my hubcap to reach the shop, but they were very professional & polite with making things right. I am very appreciative for their receptiveness to my situation.
The tires feel like the sidewalls are broken. The seem to cause the vehicle to veer left and right.
This set of tires have been on my car for about 6 weeks now. Overall they're very quiet and comfortable for your typical daily commute to work and back, for more spirited driving they sit very happily at higher than average highway speeds and have decent cornering traction, not as good as other performance tires I have had in the past but they're not your typical performance tire. Wet traction is good, doesn't break loose as easily from 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd when raining or driving on wet roads. I would buy again for a daily driver, would not buy for something I would take to a weekend track day.
I love everything about my tires! I would buy from Mavis Tires again. Customer service was excellent
