Usually I don't like Barum tires for summer season but reviews are right. This tire is silent, comfortable, grippy (considering for road tire) and doesn't squeek even during spirited driving.. Man can trust them. Some tires are like driving on jelly fish but this isn't. Considering price, it is great deal.

They were already on car when bought the car, with 5.5mm left, 2018 production year. What can I say, almost impossible to drive on wet road, even just starting from stand still, not very aggressive cause hard spin, very scary to fly through corners on wet road. The dry aspects are pretty good, but tires are hard and not very comfortable. Once was on track, not very pro, but after 30 mins, middle ribs almost destroyed, not very responsive after couple of rounds. In general doesn't like them, because mostly it is wet in my country and need to significantly reduce speed.

Great tire for the price. Yes no as good grip Maybe with Michelin or other expensive brands but with today's cars and abs assistance and collision assistance does it make any difference? I have 2 audis and never used anything else. Great tire

I already reviewed tire at 9000 miles:
"Really good grip in wet, more than expected. In wet I drive them almost as it's dry and they really stick.
They are good and predictable in dry."

This has not changed. Tire is really good, especially for the price. And they would last at least 10000 more miles judging by the thread wear.

BUT, I had to change them because they could not be balanced properly!
First when I changed from winter to summer, they balanced them (I went out for a coffee while they were doing it), I went home driving on motorway and my whole car was shaking from 50 mph. Driving 70 mph was impossible. So I went back next day to the shop, and they really tried to balance them but they couldn't. They would remove them from the wheel, put them again, etc to try to get them to be better. It was better, but not as it should be!

Because they have more life in them, I won't throw them, I will fit them to another vehicle that is only for city driving.
I bought Premium Contact 6 to replace them, and they are really really good (I'll leave review).

Because of this issue, I cannot recommend them to anyone who is driving outside of city.

For the price can't be beat. Last longer than continental and 40-50 quid cheaper per tire. Grip in both wet and dry is also not far off the contis. I like to test a tire in all conditions....can hardly budge them even on roundabouts in the wet ....only after 15,000 miles and down to 3.5 mil are they starting to move a little but still feel safer than cheap brand new budget tires I tried before. Only issue is for some reason recently I'm finding them hard to source!

Bought these for my Jaguar xf 3.0 diesel, they've been a very good tire. I'm not the racing type but they haven't let me down. The tire walls have faired well having been forced into the gutter a few times by ongoing traffic. I've now done nearly 30,000 miles and I reckon there's probably another 5000 miles left. I've had them for nearly 2 years and I'm very pleased. If I can get them again I would, but proving difficult to source at the moment.

On BMW F11.
Tires feel very hard, rather uncomfortable. But rolls off quietly. Big problems at balancing.

Got these tires as a replacement of my OEM fitted pirelli p7's, both dry and wet grip are somehow average, you can trust them but you must expect lots of wheelspin, especially in wet surfaces, and they were also quite noisier compared to p7's, where these tires really shine is the wear, 43000 miles in combination of Country Roads and motorways, other than that, these are average budget tires, and I won't buy them again

My last review of these tires was in July last year with just over 5k under them. 12k further on and with what looks like at least another 4 or 5k left in them, I'm still mega impressed. Highly, highly recommended. In fact, I was thinking of changing my alloys for wider rears, but because Barum don't make the right tire size and I don't want to buy any other tire, I've decided to keep the wheels I've already got.

I drove about 15000km (9000mls) on them in less than a year, and judging by thread wear they seem that will last about 30000km.
Really good grip in wet, more than expected. In wet I drive them almost as it's dry and they really stick.

Would recommend.

These tires may have a cheap price but the grip is as good if not a little better than the conti sports I replaced on my Audi A3 sportback I don’t drive like an idiot but do drive spirited only issue if you can call it that is that the tires make a little more road noise and give a more firm ride to the car the noise is not much the firm ride makes you feel like your in a sports car but still have comfort

I put these on a 2005 MBZ c230 with 156000 miles on the car 225/40-17 front, 245/40-17 rear.. I purchased these for the price. Living in So California, I wasn't worried about rain. it rained the week after I got the tires.
They had good traction on our oil slick/wet roads and do a much better job of sticking to the road (wet or dry) than I expected. My morning drive is on a canyon road with nice twists and turns. With morning dew and/or rain, I can still drive with spirit. I've taken the road at 55- 60mph (limit is 40)in an old 1998 Ford Explorer just to give readers an idea of ehat I call "spirited". I was quicker than 60mph and these tires do stick. great value for a high mileage tire at a very affordable price. I've had the tires just over a month.

Ive just bought my second set of these tires, they have lasted 13000 miles on front and the rears have 5mm left after 12000 miles. Ive done over 100,000 miles in the ownership on this car and have tried various tires.These are great economical tires for commuting, they provide more than enough grip in the wet and dry, they dont hydroplane doing 70-75 on a very wet motorway even while at 1.6mm on fronts and have great grip in the dry. Ive tried pirelli p7 which last about 8000 miles on front tires and PS3 which last about 10000 miles on fronts if I recall. If you want a tire to drive normally on a normal car then buy them you wont find any other tire as good as these for the money. If you want a tire for grip and performance for a high performance car (something with more than 400hp not your average 330d) then go buy a premium brand tire for maximum grip. Ive also tried budget tires on this car (landsail/accelera phi) and they are terrible in the wet, a 1.6mm pirelli p7 will out perform most 8mm new budget tires in the wet! There is no point in buying them on a daily driver. These barums are not budget tires they are mid range and honestly have more than enough dry and wet grip but it ofcourse wont be as grippy as most premium brand tires. I hope my experience with trying many tires helps someone unsure about trying these.

Great tire for the price, got them for 300€.
Very quite,good handling, i like the rim protection, it works perfectly when hitting a pothole or when just parking close to the sidewalks.
Will definitely buy them again.
