Firestone TZ200

Used to use Continentals as the car came with them but had 3 failures so decided to try something else. These TZ200s are better. I wouldn't go to budget brands but these have been great. I have had many sets now having done 200000 miles in my car. They last 22-25000 on the front after sitting on the rears for a similar mileage. I currently have 2 Hankook Optimo K415 on as the TZ200s were out of stock. They are a similar price but no where near as good in the wet. Firestone next time.

Had 2 sets on the front - they seem to last 28k which is good on such a heavy car and one set on the back which look like they will last 50k easily. Boring, reliable, black, round - does just what you need. Never had a balance or quality problem.

Nice and quiet (car came with Pirelli P6000, these are better for noise and life). Much of my life is motorway cruising/fast A roads often heavily loaded.

Have done OK on some snowy roads in the alps as well, I guess the fairly conventional tread patterns work better than tyres with deep londitudinal grooves. Not had to fit the chains yet, on 3 ski trips.

They do seem to 'go off' for damp road grip quite badly when you get down below 3mm, but my estimated life includes changing them at 3mm.

Bought these from Kwikfit, driven for 4000 miles look as good as new. I'm well pleased with them, on my Hyundai. My brother also has them on his Skoda Fabia estate, does a lot of miles, they wear very well.

These are a nice tyre for dry roads, in the wet they are ok but not great as long as you dont over cook them they are ok. They are a very nice comfy tyre on long trips, my main concern is the poor millage you get from them.. my fronts are up to just over 8,400 miles and they need to be changed very soon the rears are not far behind either. I will not buy these again they wear out too quickly but they are cheaper than many leading brands out there.

Its an average tyre but with very good dry handling and comfort, shame they dont last too long.

Bought these as rear tyres on my Wife's 1.6 focus and they were absolutely dreadful on a motorway, over 60mph the back end felt like it was going to break away all the time - very disconcerting.

Changed the wheels over, and put them on the front and they are superb, really grippy, and the problem with the rear has disappeared - won't be getting them for the rear axle again!

Just a great all round tyre. Replaced Continental Eco Contacts as I had 3 fail on me and these are better in all respects. Dry, wet, noise, economy and wear they beat the BIG brands. Gone through 3 sets now and love 'em. Just replaced 2 with Hankook Optimo K415s as TZ200's out of stock and wish I hadn't.

Excellent budget tyre. Seemed very noisy at first, but after 2-3000 miles quietened down considerably. Seem to be wearing a bit quicker than the original Firestones that did 40k miles on the front! That high mileage was mostly steady motorway driving but I do still explore handling charactaristics from time to time too!

an amazing tyre, fantastic for money, offers far better quality than tyres more than 50% more expensive.
definately a must for a keen driver on a budget

A fantastic comfortable wearing budget tyre!

Very keenly priced tyre, made by Firestone under Bridgestone group. Much better option than budget rubber - this tyre has a quality compund, decent tread pattern, is well balanced and of an extremely high quality for its price. RECOMMENDED!!!
