Driving on a combination of roads for 25000 spirited miles
I was deeply impressed with these tires even though cheap they worked wonders on my Citroën C5. They have a ready grip that detaches up to the ice .. I was buried in a meter of snow and with the size 205/65 R15 I came out like nothing .. Other than Nokian or other premium tires. I am sorry that these tires are no longer available on the market. I would buy them with my eyes closed .. They are incredibly strong on snow, ice and rainy roads .. I can't just say WOW!

Writing about the Landsail LS588 UHP given 85% (215-55-16-)
Driving on mostly country roads for 2000 average miles
I replaced the Michelins on my Citroen C5, and boy: what a difference! The Landsails are quiet, comfortable, good value! No longer my car follows the wear tracks and road markings on the road surface. The negative is a little vague steering response, not a big issue though for me. No balancing problems. They seems to last long.

Writing about the Michelin Primacy 3 given 69% (215-55-16-W)
Driving on mostly motorways for 15000 average miles
I was definately satisfied with the performance of the Premacy 3, in wet and dry.
I'm just a little concerned about the wear. After 3 years and about 24.000 kilometers they only have about 4,5 mm of profile left. So I won't make it to 40.000km (about 24k miles), while my ex Kumhos KU-31 lasted to 70.000 km (in 3 years, i was driving more before). But it's true they were XL, extra load, while these Michelins are not.
Anyway, I expected less wear after reading reviews and Michelins reputation. My next tyres for this (quite heavy) Citroen will definately be XL, probbably not Michelin.

Writing about the Falken ZIEX ZE914 EcoRun given 49% (215-55-16-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 0 average miles
Nice grip, specially in dry roads... Very good driving at windy mountain roads, specially for my c5 sw, which is long and heavy, but automatic and reprogrammed ecu up to 170 hp and very high torque.
Unfortunately they were very loud and the worse is that in the front, they lasted less than 15.000 KMS and in the rear I doubt to achieve 20.000 KMS.

I have been using Avon zv5 in my previous car, a Xantia activa reprogrammed to 145 hp, and definitely I will go back to them, those are really good tyres for the money paid, incredible grip at dry and wet and very long lasting (40.000 KMS) ...

Won't buy this Falken again... I can't afford to change tyres every 6 months... Too much! Bye bye, Falken!

Writing about the Uniroyal RainSport 2 given 50% (225-45-17-)
Driving on mostly motorways for 35000 spirited miles
Had them on the rears for the last 12 month as it's came with the car.
I've done 35k on them on rears (80% on the motorways) an it's just half-worn. The grip was not the worst, kept me well on the motorway in the shallow water. However for the last 5-8k noise exactly the same as dying hub bearing on 40-55 mph and vibration sound on over 60mph. As soon as I dropped them onto the fronts noise became incredibly loud and slight vibration on the steering wheel, although after they've been balanced well. Road feedback just below an average and no comfort at all.

Definitely will never buy again.

Writing about the Nexen Arrowspeed CP661 given 83% (225-55-16-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 4000 average miles
Had these fitted at my local Kwik-fit prior to touring England and Scotland had no problems on motorway runs and in some pretty apalling weather.

Tyres made little noticeable road nose and fuel economy has remained good having checked pressures fortnightly.

As for wear rate will need to cover a few more miles to comment but there seems to be a good trade off grip to wear rate.

In summary I would buy these again!

Writing about the Michelin Primacy HP given 100% (215-60-16-H)
Driving on mostly country roads for 8000 average miles
I replaced my cheaper tyres with Michelin and immediately noticed huge improvements in handling and noise. Also, my mpg has gone from 48.6mpg to 54.8mpg. Won't be long before I recoup the higher price.

i have always loved Michelin tyres, but Primacy 3 must be a huge production mistake.
Wet grip in high speed is totally absent, and they wear out in one season.
