Honda Civic Type R Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Nokian WR A3 given 100% (215-45-17-V)
Driving on a combination of roads for 2500 spirited miles
This is my second review of these Nokian`s.
Highly recommended winter tyre, very happy with! I would say they are better in the wet than dry, gripping and braking. Very smooth ride and probably the most important: practically no wheels spin.
I`ve driven mine loved CTR EP3 on Continental, Vredestein`s Pirelli`s and standard Bridgestone`s winter tyres.
None of them are doing their job as Nokian`s, none.
Nokian WR A3 is just doing its job, very stable on the road and corners.
Much cheaper than Continental, Michelin, Goodyear, Dunlop or another premium brands.
Definitely will buy again and highly recommended.

Writing about the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric given 100% (225-45-17-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 0 spirited miles
I recently bought these tyres for my Honda Civic Type R (FN2) to replace the Yokohoma Advanced Sport which were previously on the car.

I must say I am really impressed by the grip of these tyres , they really stick to the road like glue. I feel fully confident taking bends/corners at speed. Performance both in dry and wet conditions is remarkable.

I can not really comment on the tyre life as I have only driven

Writing about the Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta given 100% (225-45-17-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 30000 spirited miles
I thought this was a budget tyre with a fancy tread pattern.............. was so wrong in the end and surprised! fantastic in the dry and especially in the wet, nice stiff sidewalls for good cornering and tread that wears well and the price of this tyre is so competitive puts so called premium brands to shame! Its almost half price of the premium competetion and better than most I tried this includes Eagle F1A, Continental CSC3 etc!

Writing about the Uniroyal Rainsport 2 given 100% (205-55-16-W)
Driving on mostly town for 10 average miles
I'm very pleased with the Uniroyals Rainsport2, it's amazing the difference you get by changing all the tyres. The old ones were quite worn and I hadn't realised just how much this had effected the handling. These give good grip and are very good in the wet.

They call Uniroyal Tyres the "Rain Tyre", I can see why now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

A good tyre at a reasonable price.
This tyre is made by "Continental"

Driving on a combination of roads for 10000 spirited miles
these tyres are great value for the money would 100% buy again with even hinkjng twice. in the dry you can chuck the car in any corner at high speed an i know its safe they have good grip. so i dont know why people are commenting say the grip isint to good because it clearly is?? they hardly make any noise and are comfortable. ive driven 7,000 VERY HARD miles and theres still plenty left. great tyre! recommend to anyone tbh especially civic drivers feel amazing on type r's! ive tried the bridgestones tbh i just wanted them off! crap for the price of them!

The best tyres I have used so far and they offer so much grip and control in all conditions. And my driving style is very spirited.

Writing about the Hankook Ventus V12 evo k110 given 92% (205-45-17-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 1000 spirited miles
Had these fitted to the front of my Civic Type R to replace some very badly worn Toyo Proxes T1-R.

Initial impressions are very good, excellent grip in the wet and even better in the dry.

Comfort and road noise are reasonable for the size of the tyre and the feedback is very good.

Can't really comment on the wear rates so I will report back once these near the end of their life to see if I'm as impressed with them.

So far so good, thumbs up for me and I would recommend these tyres!

Writing about the Bridgestone Potenza RE050A given 91% (225-40-18-W)
Driving on mostly country roads for 21000 spirited miles
I have just replaced the front tyres after 21k miles from new. The outer edges are worn away, mostly due to being under inflated for a long period, otherwise I would still have several thousand miles left. Fantastic tyre with excellent grip and quite quiet. The car has been driven quite hard at times.
