After 6 years and 35.000 km on the road the conclusion is that this is, maybe, the best tyre I've ever bought for my car. For sure there are better tyres out there in the market, we all agree to that. But INFINITY turns out to be a very strong and valuable player.
The grip and brake on the wet are surprisingly little better than on dry terrain and even near the limit I was always confident that I have control without to worry about unpleasant surprises.
Now days, as expected, the driving is dangerous, the tyres are dry and not efficient anymore. But still have a lot of material on the tread, wear is something that never bothered me. For example, in comparison with Nexen N blue hd plus, wear was something a had to have in mind because pieces were falling off the tread. With Infinity never had to worry about wear. Unfortunately, for some reason, the brand is no more distributed in my country and that sucks. I'm about to try TOYO PROXES COMFORT as replacement.

These tyres do give a very comfortable ride, amazing grip in both the wet and dry, but they really are very noisy and have a very high rolling resistance, I would not recommend them for a low powered small car, and I would not buy them again.

This tyre is very well combined with my car, Hyundai i10. Its dry and wet handling is in hi level. They are the first tyres of my car, since 2019, and after 48.000 km they are still effective. That's why next month I am going to replace with EcoContact6.

Grip is good. Driving within speed limit and carefully, the grip of the tyre is adequate for normal driving. Did not notice any issues on wet grip. keeping safe distance and driving slower during rain so could not feel the difference as car managed to stop on time. treadwear is 380 and the tyre lasted for about 50000km and still able to use the tyre. Comfort is great. low noise and Vibration from contact on road surface reduced tremendously. will buy again

Please avoid these tyres if you live anywhere where summer temperatures usually go above 30 degrees Celsius. They simply cannot cope with the heat and they are literally dangerous when breaking in hot conditions. Braking is so poor when hot and dry, it is simply hard to believe how bad it is. However, when it is cold, it is another story, definitely they feel lot more secure. Also in rain no troubles, whatsoever. They also feel secure in directional stability when driving at higher speeds. This winter there was no snow (or ice) at all here in Serbia, so I cannot comment on snow properties.

Replace them today fo the HS52, made 45000kms 27900mies (aprox), and they were ok for may work car. Had Michelein before and were not that much better in wet condition were worst.

Grip in both wet and dry seem acceptable but significant cracking on tyre shoulder is a real worry. Tyres have a date code that suggest they are 3.5 years old. They have covered about 10k miles and have about 4mm tread remaining. The cracks appear deep and are between and on top of the tread blocks on the outer shoulders only.
I haven’t claimed on the Nexen warranty because I don’t want Nexens again.

I have them on my wife's Huandai i10 for 22.000km. In the beginning were OK. Not anything special but they did the job. In the wet they were weak and untrustworthy as the feedback was not balanced. After the first 10.000km they became a bad tire. No grib in the wet at all and in the dry they were just OK. Also they became uncomfortable.
Do noy buy cheap tires. They are not worth it. They still have lot of groove but I am going to change them before the Autumn rains.
