The only non Chinese tyre available in that size i could find. Coming off Kumho Ecsta SPT which not available in any 17" size anymore apparently.
Very skeptical about these after having used DZ101s but needed new shoes in a hurry. Time will tell.

2 months of use and I have found these to be mediocre at best.
Much more ABS intervention in straight line braking compared to previous tyres.
Lateral grip not too bad, corners have gone well so far (...so far).
Rides softer than previous Kumhos (probably due to taller sidewall) but pretty noisy in comparison. Not hum/drone noisy but more so than any tyre should be.
No hydroplaning YET up to 100kph, I don't do faster than that in heavy rain.
Sadly, I may put another set of these on my other car for lack of anything better in this size.
FU tyres in almost any 17" size is almost impossible to find and where has, is like new tyre price or they worse than the Kumhos I changed in the first place.
