To me these tires are very noisy. The overall quality is acceptable at best but not remarkable. I experienced what would be tantamount to the Jeep 'death wobble' after driving over an irregularity in the road surface a few times. These tires only had 19k miles on them and were rotated on a regular basis at the dealership. I will admit that I have never driven these tires off road so I cannot attest to their performance and reliability in that capacity. My experience leads me to believe that these tires are not living up to their price point.

Continental ExtremeContact Force rated 91% while driving a Mazda MX5
Driving on track for 4000 spirited miles
Been using these on my track day Miata. My first impression was how little heat they require to get working. You can attack out of the pits better than on other lapping tires, and they don't suffer from heat as much as the autocross/time trial tires do. It will give up some time to the super 200 tw tires, but if you're more concerned with a consistent tire that can hold up to the abuse of 20-30 minute sessions, the Conti is excellent. Street manners are fine, not dissimilar to the other tires in the category. They suffer in the cold, and are ok in the wet. No real draw backs to this tire other than the cost.

Hankook Ventus Prime 3 K125 rated 91% while driving a Ford Fusion 1.4 TDci
Driving on mostly town for 1000 average miles
I've been through various brands of tires on the car which were OK but the difference with these is amazing. With emergency stops the ABS hardly switches on (wet and dry) with super short stopping distances. They have a solid feeling with excellent road feedback but without being uncomfortable and the road sound is OK and not a problem. I didn't know that tires could be this good and make so much difference to a car.

Vredestein Quatrac 3 SUV rated 81% while driving a Mazda Tribute 2004
Driving on a combination of roads for 45000 average miles
Had these tires for 4 winters and have over 45000 miles on them. I find the wet traction to be almost as good as the dry traction to the ABS point. Winter performance is as good as my last pair of blizzak non studded winter tires.. Obviously winter reduces grip and a little more slip occurs but this should be expected - braking and cornering and tracking are top notch for studless winters, never left surprised and roads never felt dangerous. Tires have become a little noisy but my wife hasnt complained yet so cant be that bad - unlike other reviews.

I think these tires are misunderstood and reviewed poorly..

The first year I learned these tires need special attention. Aggressive driving in the dry will wear these tires rapidly (Saved them by rotating and letting the wear catch up). Also they have 6ply constuction so load ratings are different - so like big 4x4 tires the inflation needed to be reduced - which if not adhered to will wear them out super rapidly! Mine wore evenly 10-15psi less than the manufacturer recomended psi without affecting fuel economy.

I had great experience with these and would recomend them to everyone with an SUV who is not going to drive like they stole it. I think of them as Winter tires that work safely in the summer wet or dry but will fail quickly for high performance summer use.

Cant have everything.

Pirelli CINTURATO P6 rated 77% while driving a Ford Unknown
Driving on a combination of roads for 10000 easy going miles
After 10,000 miles in 6 months, driving on various roads the tires have barely worn. I'm pleased with them and would buy again. No idea how they would perform in the snow.

They have been filled with nitrogen so the pressures have barely changed over this period.
