Dangerous! Very good fun on the rear if you like going sideways in the wet but seriously dangerous tires. I've had them on for over a year now and covered 21,000 miles and they still have 3mm of tread they're a very hard compound which is good if you drive like a nun but if you drive in any way 'normal' or even slightly 'spiruted' you will slide. Roundabouts will either be massive fun or your worst nightmare. Road noise is also terrible it sounds like i need new rear wheel bearings despite having replaced the bearings 1 week ago. You get what you pay for and with these £50 a tire gets you maximum skids.

I bought the car with these tires they must have been fitted to pass an MOT. The first thing you notice is the noise, unbearable. On a dry road they are at best average, on a wet road DANGEROUS, they just slide. As for wear, in 3500 miles there has been NO reduction in tread however, there appears to be some surface cracks appearing between the tread blocks.
My advice is do not even consider fitting!

Were fitted on my car when I bought it. Sounded like a wheel bearing had gone and it droned at anything over 30mph, dangerous in the wet and mediocre in the dry. Simply put the worst tires I have ever come across - I would strongly urge anyone considering a set to think again!!

I have these cheaper tires fitted on the back as there is no point to buy more expensive tires for my RWD 330D car is remapped, so torque on the back wheels is over 400nm, so no matter what tires are on the back of my car, they are gone twice much faster than front tires, i like spirited driving and yes these tires require more concentration and experience, but they are still ok, of course i can buy nice tires for twice of price, but they will be gone in 6 months like any other cheap or expensive tire in my case...

With these tires there is no room for error. You must be a confident experianced driver to use these as they are terrible. Yes they are cheap but for an extra £10 a corner you could get far better and less dangerous. If the road is wet you can end up anywhere going through a roundabout or even a easy turning corner. I have had to correct the car many times with these tires.

Guys....Seriously...DO NOT BUY this crap. They are dangerous...I bought my car from a bloke who just put these on (to do the MOT) He told me "they are performance tires".
The car is an Lexus IS 250 AWD.
The second day I nearly killed my family. Car just skidding everywhere even at slow speed...On a wet day you have to drive like my grandma would do on the day she left her prescription glasses at home. One day at the shopping center had to do a sharp left and the car skidded side way approx half meter. I was doing only doing 17mph.
If u want to test how good is ur traction control system, well than by these tires....if u are a pensioner doing only 30mph and only on a dry day, well than buy these crap, cos they are cheap as chip.
Noisy as hell, feels like they are made out of wood... but I think they would last forever...cos the mixture they use might contain sand, sandstone, dirt, wood chips, garden chair and to give some soft stuff to the mixture: mud and a half pizza.
I replaced them after two weeks. Got the new Nokian Z-Line...huh man these are the best ones ever:)

Tire splits at the seam between the tread and sidewall on the inner and outer edges. Friend of mine has had a set of four all go the same way and had to have them replaced too after 6 months and hardly any wear. Dangerous tires! Check yours for splits in the same area - can be a reason some are losing pressure quicker than others!

I previously had a set of Potenza's on my st225, so when I came across these bct's for AU$60 each I honestly didn't expect much at all. Price of a set of 4 cost the same as 1 Bridgestone.
Honestly they were very impressive from the get go, My ST only works properly when it's driven like a track car. I didn't have any of the for aforementioned problems, no significant noise or lack of grip in dry or wet weather, I do regular track days in Melbourne and I've done the same lap time around Winton with these bct's, I've had them of for about 6 months now and they maybe dropped 10% of its tread. If you drive decently on these things they'll perform more than good enough.

I Agree with all the negative comments. They are dreadful. But what do you expect for £50 each though? Yes they are noisy, give a poor ride and grip and they seem to lose their pressure quickly. I have not had any issues though with cracks or de-lamination and that's after 10K miles in a heavy front wheel drive estate car. The only saving-grace is that they never seem to wear out. I think they must be made of concrete or some other material generally not used for tire manufacture. If they ever wear out, and i hope they do, I can then justify replacing them with a decent set of tires.

The worst tires you could every buy, they are so noisy it unbearable, 4 new fitted 4 months ago, they are now being changed, rubbish and dangerous

These tires are terrible. The grip is very unpredictable and a complete lack of steering feel made me instantly uneasy on these tires. After 3 weeks of very easy driving (because they gave me no confidence) the first patch of ice I hit (at very low speed), the rear end stepped out and was completely uncontrollable. I now have a Toyota Yaris and very high insurance premiums as the Lexus was no more.

Don't moan that the tires are rubbish.If you want a great gripping tire,spend more cash.You get what you pay for.For the price,they are fantastic.Ive never had an issue.This is the second set I have used.
