Very good tire. In wet and dry. Sticks to the road very well but after a couple of laps on the circuit the tires get "liguid", the grip is gone and loses its rubber fast. Normal use perfect tyre for a good price...

Comment:
For a lightweight car they don't work, the rubber compound is too hard and never gets sticky enough. They look like they're going to last a lifetime and when used in anger they become slippery, go up in smoke instead of gripping. Good water clearance though but as a sports tyre in a lightweight car it doesn't work.

After been highly disappointed by Pirelli's over the years, I needed another tyre make. It took me about a week to do the research and came with the Toyo Proxes T1-R, and boy! ...is it a good tyre. I have already been advising friends to go for it.
