Top 3 Autogrip Grip 500 Reviews

Given 14% while driving a Fiat Bravo (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 3,000 average miles
AutoGrip Grip 500s. What can I say about them? Well. They are bloody DANGEROUS. In the dry. They break traction with the slightly bit of acceleration and push really wide in the bends even when doing half the speed limit! In the Wet. Just don't. If it's the slightly bit damp or colder then 10°c just take the bus you'll actually arrive at your destination! They just have 0 traction it just makes pulling out of junctions impossible and if you approach a bend just pull over and wait for it dry. Road feedback. The car just felt loose and unstable. Handling. Fantastic If you like the other sides of hedges or curbs. Wear. After 3000 miles they needed to be binned inside edges were fully gone. Comfort. Now here is the only time I can say something good, on the motorway due to giving 0 feedback to the driver they was quite smooth and quiet. Buy again? Hell no everytime I see a car with autogrips I tell the owner to replace immediately for safety reasons. Summary don't even bother and if they are fitted to your car REPLACE IMMEDIATELY your life and others isn't worth risking because you decided to save your self £20 per tyre! I've Now got Avon ZV7s fitted and they are hands down the best tyre for a average car!! Replace the autogrips with a full set you won't be disappointed! :)

Given 42% while driving a Skoda Octavia vRS (225/40 R18) on a combination of roads for 2,000 average miles
Pros:

- Direct steering thanks to its stiff sidewalls

Cons:

- Suffered badly from wheelspin & torque steer even with non-spirited driving. The traction control kept on saving me on those occassions.
- Poor steering feel during extreme weather conditions
- Awful braking distance. Do not drive fast or you will find out the same as me

Overall: I drove maybe 2000 miles with these tyres & would not recommend them for anything, not even a last resort. For modern cars that have turbochargers & develop high torque, even if not a performance one, you will be asking trouble more so if you like to disable the traction control. Stay well away from these & buy a more premium brand that can be trusted.

Given 66% while driving a Fiat 500 (205/55 R16) on mostly country roads for 3,000 average miles
Have no issues certainly none that equate with the two reviews listed here as fitted to an Octavia vrs or Fiat Bravo. Are they the best tyres out there? Absolutely not. But they are perfectly acceptable considering their price point. I have never felt in any danger either cornering, braking or accelerating in either the dry or the wet.
