thanks for the kind words, and yes i am still very satisfied with my decision to go with these tyres, i will add though that i bought these originally for 19 inch rims, i later upgraded to 20,s and was concerned with ride quality and noise.
my experience to date is that these tyres to me seemed nosier in the 19,s than in the 20,s
of course the 20,s do have a firmer ride, especially as my X also has sport suspension
the other concern i had was increasing the steering effort going to wider front tyres, and in my case that has not been my experience. in fact if anything it seems slightly lighter
from my personal experience, tyres aside, going to 20 inch rims was a great move in its self.
we do pay a premium for tyres here in Australia and if i had any doubts about the safety of these tyres i wouldnt hesitate for a second to have them replaced with a recognised name brand
and while i would prefer NOT to recomend any product, and believe each should make his own decisions, for me these tyres seem to work well.
oh i have also been keeping a close eye on inner tyre wear on the back and have to say that i dont have any issues in this area either
