They are stamped with treadwear 420 and traction A. The wet grip levels should be illegal (seriously) but they hold my power fine in the dry unless I really punish them. They sure seem to be hard wearing so far. On the rear of a daily driver they have their place I must say. Will still replace them with my age old faves Kumho KU31 or maybe try some Achilles ATR2 Sports. Probably Invos for the front but still undecided.
