UC6 is a comfort-oriented tire with good noise control and excellent dry handling. However, its major drawback is rapid wear; I've had it for just over 2 years, and it's already slipping on wet inclines. The wet handling performance was outstanding only in the first year, deteriorating significantly thereafter. I don't think I'll be repurchasing it

Great tyres for a petrol car, but they reduce the highway range by about 8% on my EV. The OEM tyres were terrible but more fuel efficient. I guess you cant have it all. The tyres are sooo quiet though its worth it. Highway grips is superb - it shows the inadeqacies of my cheap EV's suspension.

These tyres drive well in both dry and wet weather. they are pretty grippy compared to the OEM Kumo tyres that came with the car. these have been on the car for 2-3 years. they are good for conering,

Punctured 2 of those tyres within half a second driving through a pot hole on the left side. These tyres are definitely not suitable for heavier vehicles like Lexus LS.

These tyres cause severe vibration at 80 km P/h and at 100 km p/h and at 110 km per hour. It makes driving the car very unpleasant and creates not only noise but discomfort. Driving over small ridges in the road is like hitting a brick. The tyres seem to have activated the ABS going down a steep hill at slow speeds. I feel conned and no longer enjoy driving my car. Can anybody help?

Originally chose these tyres as they have the rim protector feature. I have found them to be very comfortable, quiet tyre, and extremely well wearing. I have rotated them every 10000kms, I check tyre pressures every 2 weeks and have run them at 38psi at all times. They have been balanced once from memory, yet still drive smooth and quiet. To date they have covered 64000kms of mostly highway and still have about 1.5 - 2.0mm of tread left to the wear indicators. I anticipate getting another 10 000kms out of them before I replace them. I have never found them wanting for traction, even in heavy wet season rain events. 2011 Toyota Corolla ZRE152 sedan, Manual trans. 205/55R16 91V manuf. date - 3rd week 2018.

I use these tyres on my Accord V6 for both suburban commuting and driving a family of four on longer country-road trips. They have excellent grip (wet &dry), and are quiet and comfortable. I do not throw this car around to extremes like my fun little MX-5, and so I have not sought to test them to the extreme edge of performance, but I still drive enthusiastically, and they have never scared me or let me down... They have all the performance and safety required for a family car, and more... I have not had them on the car long enough to see how long they last, but we have been very impressed with the tread-life of a similar technology Continental CC6 in my wife's smaller econo-car, and see no reason to suspect the treadwear will be any lower?
