No. I agree. I've had 2 on the back and got 50% better mileage than a Metz. Great grip too. My only gripe was they're a bit skittish in the wet. That's why I tried the Bridgestone, which I found to be better in every way - mileage (+ another 50%), ride, handling and grip in all road conditions. If you don't want the higher profile of the B/S then the Cobra a good option and certainly better than Metz IMO. On the front, I haven't found a better tyre than the Cobra - although others seem to be happy with various other brands and sizes.
