Not pushed them yet, but he ran them both last winter and through the summer and was very complimentary.

I still can't fault my set of these Riken winters , covered almost 8k since fitting last December , ran them through winter then all summer including 2 France trips & they still perform as they did at the off & have still got around 7mm on a fwd Astravan .
Update this thread when you get some miles on , id be interested to hear your thoughts of them on a 2 seater rwd car

Will do. Can’t be any worse than the 2mm rears I’ve been running!

Couple of weeks in and only a couple of hundred miles, but super impressed so far. Car handles fine, grip is in line with what’s I’d expect for winter boots at these temps. Happy with the choice, especially given how cheap they were.
