Not for everyone. This is a tyre designed primarily for circuit driving not everyday road use, but if you want to enhance an eggressively sporty car with a tyre that responds well to being pushed hard in corners thin this is good value. It has a noticeably stiffer construction than regular uhp road tyres and its tread compound if pretty soft. steering if very direct but perhaps a little too lively on uneven surfaces. But its a trackday tyre really, so its all about the extra dry grip and its much better at taking the heat and abuse in that environment.

Good tyre for road use and track days, have to get a good bit of heat in them for them to really work well on track but they're pretty good for normal road use in good conditions. Like any semi slick though wet weather use requires some concentration. Can't have the best of both worlds.

Comment:
Bought these as a road/track day tyre expecting them to be capable but not expecting much more. However they are superb on both road and track. Not far behind the grip levels of the 888's I had used mostly before and so much more longevity. Nice stiff sidewalls ( my regular tyrefitter says they are the hardest tyre he has ever had to pop on a rim ). Would definitely buy again. Myself and all my friends who regularly track are now using these.
