comfort is excellent. What I appreciate most is the low road . It makes every drive more relaxing. Fuel efficiency also seems to have improved slightly.

Phenomenonal tyres the Serenity Plus'. Did 70,000km of thrashing them in a FWD V6 Sedan. Spun wheels regularly, did burnouts on private property,… Read more

used enthusiastically around corners etc. The literal abuse of these tyres and kms I got out of them has me putting another set of 4 on today. I rotated myself and did 1 wheel alignment in their life. I would have gotten 80,000km + had I done 2 wheel alignments. Wet grip has been great until end of life. Generally handled very well in the dry and on gravel roads.

Best tyre I’ve owned. Super safe, durable and long lasting. Slightly uncomfortable on long drives – Purchased these after multiple tyre breakages with other brands. These lasted by far the longest (actually got to wear them out). They grip well, can… Read more

handle corners in wet and dry conditions, and the 2-ply wall has allowed for excellent durability. My only gripe is they’re a little uncomfortable when driving longer distances- it’s a small price to pay for the safety and durability on offer. Having gone through a few sets now over several years. It’s a shame they’re discontinued as would definitely purchase them again.

getting a sporty tyre. I did that and have performance similar to tractor tyres. My vehicles were specced with SP’s from new (20+ years ago) and they were a very grippy tyre so I confidently had them fitted. I couldn’t replace them with the excellent Goodyear Assurance Triple Max tyres and had to take what I thought was a similar tyre. Having a 1250 tare weight car with very decent suspension and grip, I’ve barely had my abs engage, even under heavy braking, now these low grip tyres are activating the ABS frequently due to a lack of grip. The joy of driving my car has gone from fitting these tyres. They made me think about just using public transport since driving was making a two decade long enjoyment of using this type of car a bad experience. The car has lost its precision, stability on corners, braking efficiency and made me not drive with the same level of confidence that I’ve enjoyed across many different road surfaces and conditions. Objectively, “B” traction specs are not as safe as “A” traction tyres and fitting them (B traction) for comfort or extended wear resistance is idiotic and adds to the risk of an accident or loss of control by a significant margin. I can’t wait to replace these wombat tyres. They are “good” tyres but you may want “excellent” tyres when it matters most (and for every day enjoyment). I don’t rate their wet performance at all, terrible, The worst wet and dry braking I’ve ever had on my cars, the barely legal tread on the Goodyears that these replaced destroy these near new tyres for wet grip, control and braking. They don’t feel like they would aqua-plane poorly but then again poor control and grip in the dry is only worse in the wet so maybe aqua planing would be safer even if it’s random. I can’t wait to ditch them, they are a very regretful purchase and I was safer driving on the nearly worn old tyres and should have ordered the better tyres, which were similar in price but unavailable. Sport? That word on these tyres is beyond any stretch of the imagination or marketing embellishments. It would take many more generations and an unusual evolution of language, in very sedate society also lacking any historical references sport and the activities of the past to even refer to these in that context, unless the tyre was used as a hoop or to roll down a hill and chase, the name sport shouldn’t even be applied to these sarcastically. As a “sport” tyre, no, wrong word, just put Tyre on the side or “mid spec tyre”. They are better than tyres showing wires and I can’t fault the lettering on the sidewalls, that is done in good taste. Proof of purchase is available to Products review upon request.

other reviewers have noticed. The car was a normal hatchback with nearly always 1 passenger and no loads to overwork the tyres. I check and maintain the right tyre pressures. I can’t really recommend them as what modern tyre goes out of round anymore? It was certainly the tyres as on changing then out, the sound went away instantly.

about three years or 40,000km out of them. It turns out that was 2018, well before the COVID lockdowns. So 6.5 years and 75,000km later, the mechanic has only just told me they're getting low and it's time to replace. I'm not someone who runs their tyres down, but it's just a case of time flying and the tyres not having given us any issues. I guessed they were put on about 40,000km ago, but was completely wrong.

They've been nothing but grip and reliability in that time. I'm replacing them with the same model.

don't feel it's so bad that I'd dump them and change them. Wear is good so far and they are reasonably quiet. I drive a Toyota Corolla Cross, so the poor grip may be due to the suspension setup on this car, but compared to the Pirelli PZero Neros I had on my last car, these are nowhere near as good.
