GREAT TIRES & THEY LOOK GREAT ALSO.

Let me preface this review by stating that I am looking for a high performing tire, so if you aren’t, a lot of this will probably not apply.I had a set of Nitto Neo Gen prior to these and I loved those tires. They were absolutely phenomenal in all conditions. I drove them in heavy rain, dry, sleet, light and deep snow and even a few times on roads covered in ice (that was nerve racking but I was able to make it almost 10 miles through hills and curves without any major issues). But eventually they wore out and I went shopping. I like to change things up and I also like good looking tires. Few continentals I looked at were a bit pricey so I decided to try these Toyo’s. Toyo owns Nitto so I assumed they would also be a good quality tire (boy was I ever wrong about that). These also came with a mileage rating and from what I could find online these are marketed for mostly just rain and dry.I now have about 20,000 miles on these tires and I cannot stand them. Not only is their dry performance measurably worse than the Nitto’s, their performance in rain is abysmal. I have not had the misfortune of driving in the snow with these yet but I’m dreading it. These tires hydroplane almost as easily as the completely bald tires that were on my car when I bought it originally. These are the furthest thing from confidence inspiring in anything other than dry conditions and even then if you push the tires they will break traction and slide astoundingly easily.Aside from the abysmal wet performance the only other thing I have noticed that some may dislike is that these can be a bit noisy (mostly on brand new asphalt). Personally I don’t care about that but some may.As far as the pro’s go these were pretty cheap tires (tho not much cheaper than the Nitto’s I had before), they have good ride quality, I had no balancing issues or vibrations at any speeds even above 100. They are also good looking tires if you care about the looks of the tread pattern.I have nothing to say good or bad about the durability since I’m not quite at half of the stated mileage and they are wearing normally.Overall if you are looking for a cheaper performance tire. Look somewhere else. Go buy the Nitto Neo Gen, or Continental DWS6 or some other tire along those lines.

Durable and grippy on the road.

perfect on my Audi A5

I have a Subaru STI and they looks awesome. They style fits with sports car.

I used Amazons' service where they ship the tires direct to the shop.I think the process and price were fantastic.
