PS31 XL

<p>8000 miles of spirited driving on my C350 RWD.</p>

I had them installed on my Mercedes C350 RWD size 255 40 ZR17 94W on the rear axle.
DOT 1K2 UTQG 400 A A (made in Vietnam)
I`m a spirited driver and use the potential of my 272bhp often.
Drive every week on the german autobahn with +200km/h.
Grip on dry roads is very good,noise level top.
Wet roads also grip level is good
Like the performance of these tires.
Will make review after 10K miles
They replaced Bridgestone S001 245 40 R17 91W.
These lasted 20k km (approx. 12500 miles)
Staggered set with Dunlop SportMaxx TT RFT on Front.

I put these tires on my daily driver, a 2016 Scion FR-S to replace some Taiwanese tires the car had when I bought it, I live in Puerto Rico and here it rains a lot, after I installed the tires everything felt perfect, but then, It started to rain and I noticed that the car was hard to control, I felt the car slipping and sliding, even on a straight line, even worse if I hit a puddle of water, no matter how shallow it was. But then I really got scared, one day after leaving my house for work in the morning and I hit a patch of wet smooth concrete that had a diagonal on it, the car was under acceleration but not something major, maybe 15%, all of the sudden I felt the car turning to the right as I tried to correct the car did not respond at all, lucky for me just after the concrete there was asphalt, but then the front tires had regained grip, and I had over corrected, so I found myself going the wrong way backwards! nothing to do just full brakes and brace for impact, lucky for me the tires gripped on the asphalt, and I ended up inches from the barrier, i did not hit nothing nor anyone! Since that moment, every time it rains I get scared while driving, I can feel the tires slipping on wet white lines on the pavement, I have to be aware of everything when it rains, lines, puddles, shiny concrete, everything, and every time I get over that patch of concrete where I slipped when it is wet, I can feel the car like it is driving on ice! completely out of control, Scary stuff indeed. I see the good wet traction reviews, but for me and my car, that is not the situation. Other than that, great tires, but man they do not like water

Been using this tyre for about 2 years. This is a well balance tyre for my car's daily/spirited setup. Mostly downtown commute and once or twice a month burning the carbon they say. Front -2.5 camber and -1 camber for rear. FWD and about 1.3Tons.
Great traction for high speed corners with mid bumps (highway expansion joints), abit lackluster in hard trailbraking. Tyres are easy to regain traction if you jump midway through the bends. Yes I've jumped multiple times during mid corner and tyres pick traction back up predictably. Please do bear in mind my daily commute is also like a race track XD. Surprisingly well behaved during wet as well. The tyres will provide a little vibration tingling through your steering when its about to lose traction. That's what I felt on these tyres weirdly. My other previous tyres didn't. Easy to control during understeer. Good breaking during dry. Tyres are noisier than Advan Fleva so do keep that in mind. If you're on a budget, you won't be disappointed in them. Just don't expect them to be like proper UUHP or better than Advan Fleva(10% better overall). I would buy this again no doubt if I'm on a tight budget.

After several years of using Toyo CR1 tires, I started looking for v-shape tires to make me more confident driving in the rain. 1st time using this tire, I'm quite excited, the feeling I get is the same as Toyo, comfort and not too hard. The most win when driving in the middle of the rain, even when the water stagnates even once, the tire never floats or runs to the side, even though the tire is a bit low.
