Barum Bravuris Reviews

medium to High performance car, capable of being driven hard into corners. very low profile tyres and this is the second time I have chosen Barum tyres for this car. They are a very capable tyre and I would have no hesitation in recommending them. This tyre is made by Continental and wears very well. The first set have done 17,000 miles so far on the front wheels and this is a front wheel drive car so will tend to wear more quickly than if fitted to the rear. That first set have just been swapped to the rear wheels and a new pair of Barum tyres fitted to the front. The tyre tread left after 17,000 miles was approx 4.5mm. Good in the dry and in the wet. I have no complaints, and will buy this tyre again without hesitation.

Given 64% (breakdown) while driving a Vauxhall Vectra (215-55-16-W)
Driving on mostly motorways for 30,000 average miles

Fitted to a 2.2 Vectra. They're fine in the dry, difficult to get to break away as they're so soft, road noise is acceptable (not much difference from the previous Michelins on the car), but they are not good in the wet. Even the slightest hint of acceleration on corners, or coming off roundabouts results in immediate understeer and traction control. Have tried adjusting pressures etc. no change. Wear is also moderate...fronts are down to TWI in a year (about 30000 motorway miles) - previous Michelins did 60K before changing! Rears are still good after that time though. But...they are under half the price of the Michelins, so maybe not so bad after all!

Hard wearing, and acceptable in the dry with good progressiveness, however wet grip is very poor. On my car with no ABS it is very easy to lock the wheels under moderate brakeing in wet/damp conditions. They also spin easily when pulling away and make the car understeer easily.

Well these tyres came fittted to my VXR Astra when I bought the car from the dealer. and TBH the tyres would prob be great for a town car or for motorway journeys, but with the power the VXR has, the tyres can't cope well. There not bad in the dry and let you know slowly and softly when there letting go which is good. But in the wet there are just leathal on such a high powered FWD car.
I would def not recommend these for anyone will a mild/ high powred car. But like I said would be ok for town driving or just motorway miles all the time.

I was surprised to see the previous two comments being so poor. I am overall happy with this tyre and I am pretty sure it outperforms easily much more expensive tyres, search in google for some other tyre review websites from Germany, it was found to be one of the best tyres in wet. I have to say I have never experienced aqua planning in this tyre and I wish I could say the same for Dunlops, Pirellis and Bridgestone which I used in the past. It cost me ?160 inc fitting for 4 tyres two years ago. If I can find them at the same price I will buy them again!

Wet grip is next to useless with standing starts being difficult enough, let alone going round corners.
