If they're the same one's that were fitted to my old bmw then take extra care in the wet, I was lucky not to lose that to be honest it was only a 2.0 diesel too.

Easily, in all seriousness, 10 mph around a corner smallest bit of throttle and the back end would let go, that was driving gently too, went absolutely anywhere in the dry, DSC, everything on, even pulling away normally it'd spin up the rears through 1st and 2nd, if you thrashed it it'd spin in 3rd too. They were the most dangerous tyre I've ever came across. It wasn't as if it was a powerful car either, 2.0 diesel with 150 bhp, not a lack of rubber either they had easily 7mm and it had 255-35-18 on the rear  :o
