Questions and Answers for the Altenzo Comforter

2021-01-28 - Hi ,thinking of fitting these to my evoque. Would these be ok for my 4x4 , I don’t go of road ,,

I'm sorry, I've not tested these myself, or seen any tests including them. They seem to get good reviews for a budget tyre however I would always recommend purchasing tyres proven in testing.

Given 27% while driving a BMW 530i M sport (275/30 R20) on mostly town for 6,000 spirited miles
Had these on my BMW 530M sport some years ago when i purchased it they were quite new so i decided to try them not the sort of tyres i would usually use,needless to say please don't buy these they are terrible tyres in the wet you never know when they are going to let go and you get to see the back end rather a lot, gives the traction control light a good work out though. Dry grip is poor to fair, the rears did not ware very well and wore out on the inside edges i have had no problems with other tyres doing this ie pirelli and Michelin. Save your money and invest in better rubber than this.

I've been using these tyres in New Zealand. Mild weather, never too cold (not less than 0c) never too hot (not more than 35c).
I have them on a 152KW RWD 1500+KG sedan.
They are averaging 60,000km's per set.
These tyres behave themselves quite nicely on my family car. I can 'set them loose' if I choose to.
However as I'm married with a family I generally don't.
However on the odd occasion I have been known to get aggressive especially with some idiots on New Zealand's roads, these tyres have never let me down.
I'm on my 2nd set & I'll be going back for a 3rd set. So that should explain what I think of them, price for value they are great.

I did some homework and these tyres looked quite good price was great £340 for 2x 235x35x19 and 2 x 275x30x19 on a bmw 530d m sport against just over £800 for continental I'm nearly 2 years in now and for wear they are 10 out of 10 if you drive slower than miss daisys nan dry grip is about 5 out of 10 when new now they have worn it's a 3 and wet grip is dangerous from new and now worn forget it I wouldn't recommend these tyres and wouldn't buy them again i spent every penny i had on buying the car i had wanted for a while I wish I would have borrowed some money off my dad and put branded tyres on anyone who rates these tyres any higher than an overall dry n wet combo of 2 or 3 out of 10must be crazy you get what u pay for you can't put a price on safety

Came with a set of 18s I purchased. Not bad for a cheaper tyre. I previously had achillies ATR Sport and these Altenzo are slightly ahead in terms of grip. Good for ed back and dry grip. Wet grip not too bad.

Excellent tyres
I don't know what some people are on but as a taxi driver who does 50k miles a year easy. I think these tyres are one of the best budget tyres around. I have fitted these to various family cars for more then a year and also use on my taxi now. Fitted to golf Tdi also Kia ceed 2.0 crdi and Audi A3. All perform very well and for me it's all about wet weather grip even at speed wouldn't use them if they didn't perform. I push my cars hard when chasing work in the early hours when roads are quiet. They excell and they wouldn't get a C wet rating for nothing. There not one of the top selling tyres in OZ for nothing.They will be top price tyres in 10 yrs in uk what ha this space...!

As a driver who is cautious and drive both steady and fast i certainly know how my tyres should perform. I see many people are rating these tyres as equivalent to "Bridgesone" They certainly do not know how to test tyres. yes obviously they will drive great when you drive around down doing 4MPH but anything faster - It is almost like they have been made out of Plastic rather than rubber lol
BE WARNED PEOPLE!!!

Given 36% while driving a Toyota Celica VVTLi (205/45 R17 V) on mostly country roads for 20,000 average miles
I had this tyres on a firm sport car, but oh dear , they can't wear down quick enough., just so I get new tyres. The wet grip is the worst part of it , it's absolutely shocking, my car goes sideways in roundabouts even at 20mph and I am not exaggerating. If he car is loaded even take of is hard, it just spins and you are not moving. Motorway road noise is also very bad, at about 84db in my car, but I know this depend on the car as well. In this price range you can get mid range brands, which is way better. Please don't do it to yourself.

Given 100% while driving a Peugeot 407 Coupe (235/45 R18 W) on a combination of roads for 3,000 average miles
I think it is important for people to understand that the vehicle, driver combination gives different results with different tyres. My Opinion is based on the 235/45/R18 98Y on a 407 Coupe 2.0 hdi.
I drive between 250 and 500 miles per week on a mix of roads mainly steady driving although I do enjoy the odd spirited bit of driving on country roads.
The grip from these tryes is consitently good in snow, ice, rain and the dry. I have tried throwing the car around in the wet to find out how good they are(having read the comments about them being a death trap etc etc)and they grip perfectly well. They drive just as well as Bridgestone RE505A that I have used before but are a fraction of the cost. I have only done 3000 miles but no sign of wear.

Given 10% while driving a Audi 3,0 tdi quattro sport (225/45 R18) on mostly town for 3,000 spirited miles
Dry grip is okay'ish, definitely not the best. Wet grip is absolutely bollocks. I have not even done 2000 miles yet and already i have changed my tyres. These initially cost me £75.00 each per corner fitted that was a big mistake and a total waste of money especially with Christmas coming up. But "Hey Presto" safety comes first

I next purchased Nexen N Fera SU1, These tyres cost me £80.00 per corner only a fiver extra when compared to Altenzo. I wish I had done my research first before I purchased any tyres. What a transformation Nexen tyres made to my car. The tyre labels are pretty decent on grip but not so good on fuel consumption but who cares its ghe grip that means more to me

This is the most DANGEROUS tyre I have ever had. On the wet road it will kill someone. Break on wet roads are disaster.

OMG OMG OMG Dear People!!!!!! Because of the positive feedback of the rewiers on this site, I made the big mistake to buy this tyres !!! I am almost crying for spending my money on this THINGS!!! I don't know how other people are driving but considering their positive feedback of this tyres I believe there are a lot of Sunday drivers on this SITE!!! STOP BUYING IT! I had Pirelli previously, and changed for this bshit tyres recently. My car is not the same!!! I don't feel safe at all! My car is under steering at speeds over 90km/h which is nothing. Used to drive my pirellis at any speed, top 262km/h and no under steering while this ones are! Please, people who really like quality and safety and good performance of your cars, don't do the same mistake!

Given 10% while driving a Volkswagen Golf Mk6 1.4 TSI 160 (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 4,000 spirited miles
hi, i have had these tyres on my vw golf 1.4tsi with 170BHP after remap - this is not the fastest car but is a little nippy for a 1.4 - Now after getting it remapped i wanted a good set of tyres, Halford highly reccomended that "ALTENZO" Is the tyres that i should go for!
I drove the vehicle around locally on a daily basis for 1000 miles and had the tyres switched around from front to back at 500 miles so they can scrub in properly.

after about 3/4 weeks i went out on my first distance driving. That is when i realised what a big mistake i have made. I really DO NOT KNOW HOW THESE TYRES ARE EVEN LEGAL.
Driving on these tyres was like driving on Plastic tyres. In the wet they are absolutly terrible. Aquaplaining is just the start never mind when the vehicle starts veering side ways. Here is a typical example
" You are driving down the road in rainy conditions doing 30MPH with your family in the car, 100yards later you indicate to go left. you slow down an try to turn left but clearly you car is going RIGHT!!!"

THIS IS THE WORST TERRIBLE SH*T TYRES I HAVE EVER BOUGHT AND I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND NOT TO BUY THESE

I HAD TO DO WHEEL SPINS ON EVERY CORNER JUST TO KILL THESE TYRES SO I CAN REPLACE THEM WITH ANOTHER SET

I HAVE SINCE THEN REPLACED THE FRONT ONES WITH *** NEXEN N8000 *** AND HAD THEM FITTED TO THE BACK AND OH! MY GOD!WHAT A HUGE DIFFERNECE THEY MADE. DRY & WET GRIP IS EXCELLENT!

I HAVE NOW STARTED WHEEL SPIINING AGAIN TO KILL THE LAST SH*T PAIR OF ALTENZOZ AND I AM LOOKING TO REPLACE THEM WITH THE NEW NEXEN PATTERN - Nexen N Fera SU1 - VERY GOOD REVIEWS AND ALSO THEY ARE RATED "A" FOR THE WET GRIP WOW!
