Maxxis MA P1

Overall, an excellent tyre if you want a bias towards a harder wearing tyre. With over 14000 miles on the fronts with over 5 mm left, these outlast the excellent Kumho KU31's, BUT with nearly as good wet grip, and much better performance on snowy roads, so good for all year round. They do need higher tyre pressures than standard ( + 3 PSI )to prevent the outsides wearing too fast, but this means better fuel economy. I rarely replace tyres with same again, but I will this time. Low, but not lowest cost tyres. Safe and Good value.

very good tires for long lasting. i have them for 2 years and half till now and make of them 60000km. it's time to change them.

This is an update on the Astra and Vectra below or above when this comes out.The Astra has now done 10,762 miles on the fronts and they are ready for changing they have about 2/3mm in depth left. They have been a very good tyre since placed on the car they have never slipped up in the wet and the braking is very good, wet and dry they corner with no fuss whats so ever with very little road noise. The story is very near the same on the Vectra but not so well with wear I dont think I will reach 10k on the fronts unlike the Astra also they have never let me down.. even in bad rain on motorways and B roads they pull up very well and in the dry are sooo grippy. In both cases they are better with the 2psi increase above minimum pressure, once ballanced from fitting they have been no trouble at all, my opinion on these tyres is on my size they are good value at £42 on mine and £44 on the Astra a tyre we will be fitting them again soon they are great for the money.

As said in the 1st posting the pics of the tyre online make the tyre look like a crossply but be assured they are a nice wide tyre in the flesh.
cheers

I put these on my car after having them first on the girlfriends car which I might add suit the car well. The dry grip is fantastic and the wet grip is very close behind, the ride is smooth with little noise and they corner well even in the wet,as with my partners car they feel better 2psi above minimum...they are a tyre that needs to be driven carefully from new till at least 80/100 mile to take the shine off like most new tyres. The photo of this tyre doesnt do it justice they look like crossplys, they are a nice wide tyre and I will be getting them again for around ?44 they are a steal, they have a high treadwear ratiing of over 400 and should last me a good while, unlike some of the tyes I have had in the past...I like them a lot.

Put these on the car just over 850 miles ago on the front, after a period of scuffing the shine off I have given these a good test on the road. The dry grip is very good and braking holds no issues, this goes the same in the wet in the recent very bad rain we have had they held their own very well and never let go of the road. They have a high treadwear rating 440 so I hope will last quite a time, I only paid ?43 fitted for them and I am at the mo well pleased with them, I did note they like slightly higher pressure above minimum with 2/3psi they feel better with no loss of grip and still firm footed in the wet. How these will pan out over the next 0000's miles time will tell but at this point in time..a very good tyre.
