Honda CIVIC CDTI Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Continental EcoContact 6 given 59% (225-45-17-)
Driving on mostly town for 3800 spirited miles
Got them on my 2008 Honda Civic, the rear tyres are like brand new still, but the frinta are needing replaced already. I've done less than 4000 miles in them. Really poor wear if on the drive wheels

Writing about the Blacklion BH15 given 31% (225-45-17-W)
Driving on mostly country roads for 2500 spirited miles
I was talked into buying these by my local garage in Devon, I won’t be going back there. I should have guessed by the price that they weren’t going to be great, but I didn’t think they would be this bad. Admittedly I drive quick, but these things scare me. They don’t grip on the dry or wet so cornering is now done at a much lower speed. Already going to replace them with some proper rubber and in future I’ll remember the phrase ‘if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is’. Avoid, or if they are all you can afford, drive safe

Driving on a combination of roads for 3000 average miles
Very happy with the tyres on the dry but dangerous on wet and damp road.

Driving on a combination of roads for 75000 easy going miles
I am just about to replace a set of these after covering 75,000 miles (swapped around the car every 9,000 miles). For wear, these are the best tyres I've had so far for my 100 mile daily commute. I got over 50K from Hankook Kinergys previously. I wouldn't say that I'm the best person to rate them for grip etc due to my 'normal' driving style, but I've never had a problem with them. I bought them thinking that they were an 'eco' tyre and although they have a rating of only E, I can confirm that they seem to be much better than that - I read something the other day about how ratings car vary with speed, so maybe there's some truth in that. I achieved my record 96 mpg over my journey to work on these tyres! They've got quite noisy as wear has progressed but most tyres seem to do that, especially if you take them down to legal minimum tread depth like I do, so overall no real complaints - I would buy them again but I like to try different brands, so it's Landsail LS388s for my next set. Cheers :-)

Writing about the Altenzo Comforter given 83% (225-45-17-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 20000 average miles
At a complete loss as to the numerous reviews saying poor wet weather grip as have never had a problem on my Civic 2.2. Have Kuhmo's on the rear and they let go way too easily compared to the Altenzo's - even trying to provoke front tyres to slide in the wet is a challenge. I can only guess others are driving like complete numptys in the wet.
So far covered 20k and amazingly have 4.5mm left - more impressive as I know the Civic has a habit of eating front tyres. Definitely going to purchase another pair for mine and probably put them on my partners car when the time comes too.

Writing about the Avon ZV5 given 91% (225-45-17-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 15000 spirited miles
These are my second set for my Honda Civic, I have had the well known problem of stepped tyres on my 2008 Civic on premium tyres such as Bridgestone's affecting the rears.
Previously, I would be lucky to get between 6,000 and 9,000 miles from these premium tyres which was very upsetting for the cash flow.
My Avon ZV5's have just passed 15,000 before needing replacing and I could have got a few more hundred miles out of them to be fair.
Excellent tyre and will continue to fit them to my Honda.

Writing about the Barum Bravuris 2 given 73% (225-45-17-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 23 easy going miles
tyres been on for 23,000 miles,i have now 4mm of tread all round, i have rotated front to rear and back again,the first thing i did notice was the tyres did not roll like my michelins and i say i lost 5 mpg, wet weather grip is quite good, but for £68 at the the time good value,but if i get another
5,000 out of them ? i could of used £350 more fuel over the 28,000 miles,
i travel 5,000 miles a yr on french auto routes and the rest in the uk trying to avoid pot holes and not loose a tyre before they wears out,im looking at the Hankook Ventus Prime 2 next time if i can get them for the right price

Writing about the Hankook K425 Kinergy Eco given 80% (225-45-17-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 50 easy going miles
Pleased with these tyres - well, they worked for me! No problems with grip etc. I bought these because they offered what I look for in a tyre - they are marketed as 'eco' (the clue is in the name) and I suggest that others consider this when buying. I got good MPG with the Hankooks AND the full set lasted for 50K miles (moved around the car every 10K or so). PLUS, they are substantially cheaper than the Michelin Energy (top rated eco tyre). They got a bit noisy when down to the wear indicators however (don't most tyres?), but well done Hankook. I have replaced with Evergreen EU72's - just because I like to try something new :)
