Pros

  • Dry grip and handling both score 8, providing reliable performance for spirited driving.
  • Treadwear rating of 280 is reasonable for an ultra high performance summer tire, though no mileage warranty is provided.

Cons

  • Wet grip score of 7 could be better, especially when compared to competitors like the Yokohama ADVAN Sport.
