190/45 16 Tyre Review Highlights

Rotalla RU01 S Pace rated 84% while driving a Ford Fiesta Zetec S 123
Driving on mostly country roads for 18000 average miles
Superior wet performance to Kumho! Soft tyres with slightly less life in them than Ecsta HS51s, but a substantial change in driving terrain might be a contributor. Huge exterior groove seems to make them very resistant to slipping in the wet - be careful with frame ramps, they tend to catch.

Had them on the front with a set of part-worn (~5mm) Ecsta HS51s on the rear and so far that seems the perfect setup on my car.

Hankook Ventus V12 evo k110 rated 69% while driving a Ford Fiesta
Driving on a combination of roads for 9000 easy going miles
These tyres came with my new Fiesta. Excellent during the summer months - great grip and feedback. Very low rolling resistance and pretty comfortable, low rolling noise. However, any rain or damp conditions and they were skittish at best. Made the car twitchy and installed no confidence to whoever was driving the car. Changed the fronts the following year as I was that nervous about these in the wet. Never ever had any Hankooks that could cope with the wet.
