Passenger Car Summer Max Performance Tyres

I have barely covered 100km on these so the review is based on initial impressions. Mounted on a Tesla model 3, I immediately notices how silent the tyres are especially above 100kmh. Also they seem to be very comfortable despite the low profile. Handling seem compliant too. As a negative, maybe the fact that it comes at 7mm tread depth as new which is low. I also expect short lifespan.

Coming fresh from Nankang CRS's which developed some flat spots so my opinion will be skewed.<br />
On the limit during a turn there's a sort of rubber band sendation felt through the steering wheel, it's really easy to tell when you're almost on the limit but that last 1% is super vague to me.<br />
Very comfortable and soaks up small amplitude high frequency bumps very well.<br />
It's surprisingly light, holding my old tire one one hand and this on the other it's pretty shocking the difference in weight.<br />
It takes a while to load up on a corner but again once you're on it it communicates well until it gives up.<br />
I'll update this review once I've driven it more.

This rating is strictly for the SC7 T0 (Tesla) version, I have used the normal version of SC7, the difference is HUGE. Got to say T0 version is trash, wet grip is like none, slip everywhere, I’m not even driving that fast. Just avoid the T0 version.

Review after 12000km:<br />
Wet and dry grip: Superb. Dry and wet braking are awesome. Most importantly, the wet grip is phenomenal! Absolutely no aquaplaning in heavy downpour.<br />
Handling: Excellent. Sidewall is firmer than stock turanza but compared to UHP tyre it's on softer side, but the handling is still very very good.<br />
Noise: Noise increases (around 10%) after 10000km on a coarse road. On smooth road, I barely find a difference. <br />
Wear: When new, all four tyres at around 8.5mm to 8.6mm tread depth. With 5000km rotation interval, now it's sitting at 6.3mm front tyre and 6.5mm rear tyre. I would say it's pretty decent. <br />
Fuel efficiency: First 5000km already noticed a minor drop in fuel efficiency compared to stock turanza. After 10000km, I noticed a slightly bigger drop in fuel efficiency. I normally drive at 110kmh to 130kmh on highway. Rarely rev high and pushes over 140kmh unless I needed to overtake cars quickly.<br />
<br />
Overall, I would say MC7 is a very balanced UHP tyre. Hopefully they can improve on their fuel efficiency in the next gen MC8 while keeping the grip, handling and comfort of MC7. Still, very satisfied with my purchase.

Between 2006 and 2015 I have driven these on highways, cities and mountian roads. <br />
Hundreds of times on the limit and dozens beyond. Very clear linear feedback saved me plenty of times. <br />
The most informative tire I have driven in my life. Worn 2 sets to almost slick. <br />
Drove them in all conditions including snow or ice... never crashed... <br />
20k miles is maximum distance per set of tires if You push on them often when dry <br />
- they can wear before 10k. <br />
Grip was appropriate for the price and the times. Comfort is mediocre as an old jdm car from 90-ties on lowered springs <br />
it lacked the refiniement on bumpy roads at 245/45 sidewall height wasnt enough to smoothen the road cracks. <br />
I can see one can still buy them today since 2010 or so... Interestingly they seem to be still in production. <br />
Thanks to the Bridgestone for making it.

Very good tires, good quality for the price, totally reccomend them ! Used on a Mercedes E Klass 2014

Coming from PS4.The dry grip is at par with the PS4. Wet grip is slightly behind but not that much. I haven't aquaplaned with this yet in heavy downpours. Steering response is razor sharp given that this is 220TW and very stiff sidewalls. <br />
Tyre wear is impressive so far.
