Citroën C1 Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Kumho Ecsta KU31 given 83% (225-45-17-)
Driving on mostly motorways for 25000 easy going miles
Slightly softer than my last tyres but grip a lot better both dry and wet. Can't really argue for the price.

Writing about the Wanli S1088 given 10% (225-45-17-V)
Driving on a combination of roads for 1000 easy going miles
You want to trust your life with these tyres read the reviws of an independent magazine. Pray you dont have to hit the brakes in the wet. Or the guy behind you has them on his car

While Maxxis showed promise, it’s not happy on wet roads. Chinese maker Wanli is way behind its rivals – you hope the car behind you on a busy, wet motorway is not on the S-1088.

The Goodyear’s problems were nothing compared to the Wanli, though, which yet again brought up the rear, a long way off the standard set by the rest. It took more than five metres longer to stop – a car’s length. That means when a vehicle with the Conti rubber has come to a halt, one wearing the Wanlis will still be doing 20mph-plus.

A long way back was the Wanli. This was not a pleasant drive, with the sheer dearth of grip triggering the anti-lock braking very early and pushing the car wide as soon as the throttle was touched. Wanli was four seconds slower than the next best make, and a worrying seven seconds behind the top tyre on the handling circuit.
