Given 100% while driving a Audi A3 2.0 FSI SE (205/55 R16 W) on a combination of roads for 26,000 spirited miles
Bought Fulda Sportcontrol after reading good test results and excellent reviews.
Compared to the Continental PremiumContact 5, SportContact 2, Michelin Primacy 3 and Michelin PS3, that had before, great upgrade. Tires are super silent, much smoother, steering is smooth and light.
Grip (dry & wet): Excellent - no complaints.
Steering: Excellent - steering feels heavy but communicative.
Fuel: Good - Not a fuel economy tire, but not enough worse to bother me.
Noise: Excellent - Tires are super silent.
Ride: Fairly firm, taut and very well damped. Not bouncy or crashy. Overall very pleased.
Wear: Superb
Overall: Excellent - in terms of grip, feedback, wet weather performance and comfort/quietness. Very good tire in all section, vary confortable. Seriously quiet and look good too. Highly recommended.

They aren't the sportiest tires in the world, but for real world driving they seem excellent. The feedback is brilliant. Very good on the wet and low noise. Dry grip is great. Better than Dunlop SportMaxx RT. Well recommemded!

Given 89% while driving a Volkswagen Passat 2.0 140 TDI Sport Estate (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 3,000 average miles
235/45R17 ... very quite tire, compared to previous Dunlop sport. On changing surface smooth to rough hardly notice any noise. Rolls well, didn't see any mpg improvement. Wears well, expecting 20k miles out of my rears.
Surprised to see comment about 1L extra fuel per 100km. Going from thin 195 to 225 and expecting same fuel consumption? On average every 10mm extra width will equal about 0.4L extra fuel per 100km.

Just replaced my Michelin Premacy with the Fuldas. It is a very very good tire. Excellent grip on the dry and great braking. Very good on the wet and low noise. These tires are definatelly a match for the Michelins. Excellent buy at an excellent price.

Given 81% while driving a Audi TT (225/45 R17 W) on mostly town for 5,000 spirited miles
Very little wear even if driven hard. What is interesting is that wet grip is even better that the dry grip so this tire is very recommended in areas where there is constant rain/humidity but beware of deep water it may loose grip - there is a sharp limit on how much aquaplaning it can take. Dry grip is somewhat less but it's still good compared to the long life of this tire. Comfort is good but a little noisy above 100mph.

Given 90% while driving a Audi A4 1.8T Quattro (225/45 R17 W) on a combination of roads for 6 average miles
Have had these on for about 6000 miles and don't seem to have worn at all. I am not the most sensitive driver so I can't tell the difference between these types and better brands, I can tell the difference between these and the budgets that were on the car when i bought it though.

Perhaps the new secret tire! I had Falkens before and these are better, only slight negative is the feedback is a little less!

Given 79% while driving a Ford Focus mk2 (225/40 R18 W) on a combination of roads for 3,000 average miles
Very good tire, has a lot of grip even on wed roads, especially very good in aquaplaning conditions. (My size: 225 40 R18 Y XL). I think the way I drive, the wear will be about 25 000 miles. Before these's, I drove on 195 65 R15. With the Fulda's my car needs about 1L / 60 miles more (diesel). I would recommend this tire !!!
