Just had these tires fitted to a 200bhp 332lb/ft fwd car

Only got initial findings

Price - £160 fitted for 2 225/45/17 tires in W speed rating which is about £20 cheaper than Kumho's / Falkens / Toyo's (was a bit strapped for cash at the time so took the gamble)

Dry Grip is phenomenal, better on the limit than my old Kumho KU31's which themselves were a very good grippy tire! The kumho's squeelee when on the very limit but so far the lassa's don't seem to do this and grip rather well

Noise and Ride is like any other XL rated tire really, a bit noiser and harsher than a non XL tire but nothing really too different to the old Kumho's

Wet grip is average, tire has very similar charachteristics as a Toyo T1R for anyone who's had them, awesome in the dry and average in the wet. Wet grip isn't as good as the previous Kumho's but it is certainly not dangerous in anyway, has plenty of grip for road use.

Longevity - No idea! But hopefully outlast the old Kumho's and Toyo's i've had (7k miles each) but then i do have a heavy right foot

So general summing up, a more than capable tire for the price, i wouldn't class these as budget ditchfinders thats for sure. Good tire thats safe in the wet and very good in the dry, a good summer tire and if they last i'll definately buy again at the price

Good value for money tires, excellent wear rate over 10,000 miles, can slide a little when cold but not to bad, ok in snow and ice to, would buy them again.

good tires, I bought directly from Brisa Turkey at a price of 79 Euro about 68 GBP. I drove on the highway about 500 miles and the first impression is very good, franeza in good condition wet, dry, very quiet, stable cornering. Tires are 205/55R16 94W XL PHENOMA SILICA, INSIDE/OUTSIDE and PLIES : SIDEWALL 2 POLYESTER - TREAD: 2 STEEL + 1 POLYESTER + 2 NYLON. Will keep posted! From Germany.

I had a pair of these fitted to the front of my Astra (150bhp) and I must say I am most impressed. They grip very well in the wet and give confident feedback from the road. Road noise is of a minimum and the ride is just as good as a top end tire. I now am a convert, will buy these again.
I cant really comment on how quickly they will wear as I have only had them on the car for a week or so.
I did a little research and found this.

They are made by BRISA which is a joint venture between the Bridgestone Corporation of Japan and The Sabanci Group of Turkey. They have been in production since 1988 with Bridgestone technology and are produced alongside Bridgestone in the manufacturing plant based in Izmit in Turkey. The factory is one of the largest in Europe.

The quality of the product is outstanding and what you actually get is a premium tire at a mid range price.

Its early days with these but there feel much better than the continental SP2's I had on the front. Got these after I had a blow out on the motorway and replaced both front tires. Steering feedback is very good and the first day I had them on there was a downpour even though they were brand new tires still with the label on I felt confident in the wet. Dry grip is also very good.
Wear is yet to be tested but I have no hesitation in recommending these as a good mid range tire.
