Oh the irony to get this feedback email one year on! Look I maybe the most unlucky person alive! But all of these tyre bar one have, punctured or received a cut to the thread! So, I had to repair with tyre weld and hope they’d last a few more months and they did, and got replaced YESTERDAY!!!! I can’t say that’s good value, or a good sign of the tyre. I drive like Miss Daisy, most of the time and if we talk about tyre efficiency, then I managed 750 miles on one tank of diesel driving all the way back from Les Deuz Alps. Grip and quietness is as stated, they’re good, but I’ve just replaced them for cuts and punctures one year on. 🤷‍♂️ Blackcircles were great. I’ve just put two Michelins on and made sure there’s insurance on them. Oh and also, for the record, I have two on the front that need changing shortly, 9 months old!!! Grrrrr

They appear to be fine. They grip the road well and handle the numerous potholes pretty well. I haven’t measured fuel efficiency but it seems fine. They do what it says on the tin!

They excell massively and perform better than the Michelin PS4S in the wet and cost half the price. Waiting to see if they will last as long, currently done 3k miles and have 5-6mm left (I have a very heavy right foot). I've also heard they don't come with much tread from factory so having around that much tread left after 3k miles seems decent. The PS4S do however look better on the car aesthetic wise.

I owned an M4 for about 18 months and did about 30k miles in that time. Fronts changed ones, backs changed twice. Always Continental Sport Contact 7s. I still rate this as one of the best tyres you put on a performance car. They don't last very long, but they grip well in most conditions (I didn't drive on snow or ice). Feedback is excellent. There is nothing i could critise about this tyre.

Definitely a more summer focused tyre, but performs adequately when the temperature drops. I find that below 6 degrees C, when it's wet, they get a bit squirmy, but remain totally predictable. In the dry and at higher temperatures, they're the best tyre I've ever used in 35 years of driving mainly high performance cars. 100% recommended!

They’re very good, I think . Though the grip (despite the fact that the Audi S5 is 4 wheel drive) is definitely not as good as my old Porsche Boxster with Goodyear Porsche N1 pattern tyres on it. But I don’t think that’s mostly the tyres.
