Very, very bad tyres...
You will scare yourself silly if you put these on your Scoob and drive in the wet - they are plain dangerous. Huge, immediate (no progression)understeer without any provocation whatsoever.
Good traction in the dry, but fairly poor cornering ability - squeal like a pig under fairly low cornering load.
Buy somehting decent like the Toyos or Goodyear F1's.
