Writing about the Maxxis MA Z1 Victra given 89% (195-55-15-V)
Driving on a combination of roads for 0 spirited miles
I got a set of rims that came with a set of Maxxis Victra MA-Z1 tires, and from the first 2nd-gear-left-hander, I immediately noticed that the "AA" traction rating on the tires are not just for show. My Civic's rear end tucked nicely into the turn and steering response was quite good. I tried a couple of S-turns and the tires gave me the grip I needed that my old (and nearly bald) tires couldn't.

On the expressway on my way back home, it started to rain hard, and I wanted to see if the V-shaped tread pattern was any good on wet roads. I took the car up to about 120-130 km/h, and the car just went straight ahead, ignoring the puddles all over the road.

Dry and wet braking are good. With my old Dunlop Le Mans tires I couldn't brake as late as I wanted to; however, with the Maxxis Victras, late braking became less risky as the car responded well to brake inputs.

Overall, I would say that the Maxxis Victra MA-Z1 tires give you good value for your money. It's a tire that I have recommended to a lot of my friends who regularly drive on race tracks (since the Victras have relatively good grip and are rather cheap), and a tire that I will definitely buy again.

Excellent tyres very smooth and quiet on an already quiet engine. they have lasted 40k which in my opinion in and around town has been excellent.

Budget Tyres that handle well in the dry, but poorly in the wets (felt the rear end starting to go on roundabouts). The wear is terrible, 1 has become slick, 1 is wearing heavy on the shoulder, and other 2 are almost done as well. would not buy again

Already fitted when I bought the car, definately would not replace with the same or recommend. Most of my mileage is on rural B roads, dry grip is OK, wet grip is truely awful - very scary on the bends or any contamination (mud etc) on the road. This morning was the first properly frosty morning of the winter and the grip was non existant. At one point I had to pull over to allow the convoy stuck behind me to pass!! (I'm not a slow driver - I hold an amateur race licence). These tyres are so bad I'm going to replace them before they are even half worn and take the financial hit.
