These tyres suit the Puma very well and give almost as much grip in the wet as in the dry! The only negative point is road noise and personally that doesn't bother me. I would always stick with these for my Puma.

Just done 2500+ miles in 2 weeks around Scotland, dry grip brilliant, wet grip fantastic, tried them to as much as i dare and they wanted more, seem very well suited to light cars, Fab !!!

I submitted a reveiw 2010-03-31 .After reading others had good results with these tyres, I thought something must be wrong with my set up.Turned out the gauge on the airline at the garage I normally use was pressurising 4 psi higher than indicated.Grip on par with C drives once pressures adjusted.

tyres wear evenly and last just as long as the manufacturers originals Mitchellin pilot
Had a couple of instances on roundabouts where car drifted if cornering at slightly high speed but only during winter months with damp surfaces. seems fine in dry.

Not as good in the dry as almost bald P Zero Nero's and in the wet even worse. But still much better than Yoko Parada 2's
At least they give plenty of feel as they loose grip, nothing sudden.
I need some tyres but will go for Uniroyles or Pirelli's But I think and just keep the Proxies to distroy on trackdays.

Not really much to say on these tyres. They performed as expected, not loads of grip but not awful.
Distinctly average.

I had a set of these on my fiesta 1.25 with no dramas whatsoever so when it came to upgrading my Pume, I expected the same. Boy was I disapointed. These are plain lethal in the wet and average in the dry. The ride was filling shakeing and jarring. At one stage at 30mph on a bend, I hit a small rut and the tyre came off the rim and dam nearly killed me.
Changed to Toyo Proxes and they were fantastic
AVOID
