Kia Motors MAGENTIS Tyres

Saying that the Goodride SA05 tyres aren’t as good as top-brand tyres is like saying that a mini is a terrible car because it’s not as good as a Rolls Royce. You’ve got to compare like-with-like. I fitted a set of 215/50 17 to the front of my Kia Magentis 2.7 which is a heavy car. I’ve just returned from a 700 mile drive around Scotland after which I can report that the tyres performed perfectly. They were considerably quieter than the old worn out Dunlop’s I used to have and even though I drove fully loaded on the motorway at 70mph, and around wet country lanes I never once felt the front end slip. If you’re going to compare these to a high-end tyre and drive on the limit of performance then there may be a difference but under normal driving conditions these tyres are excellent and I’m in the process of replacing my rear’s with the same brand, and they come with the added bonus of only cosing £53 each compared with £150 for a branded tyre.

FITTED HAS STANDARD MY MY VEHICLE. A LITTLE CONCERNED AT FIRST WITH KUHMO (VALUE BRAND)TYRES FITTED TO A BRAND NEW CAR, BUT NEED NOT HAVE WORRIED. FOUND THE TYRES TO BE A GOOD ALLROUND PERFORMER, COPED WELL IN ALL CONDITIONS.INCLUDING A 1000 MILE DASH BACK FROM SPAIN IN 16 HOURS. THEY EVEN COPE WELL WHEN MY CARAVAN IS HOOKED UP TO THE CAR. FRONTS ARE ON 3MM AND THE REARS 5MM AFTER 22K. ASKING MYSELF IF ITS WORTH PAYING TWICE HAS MUCH FOR THE SO CALLED PREMIUM BRANDS.
BEST FEATURE, GREAT GRIP IN LAST WINTERS SNOW & ICE.
WORST FEATURE, THEY LET YOU KNOW WHAT ROAD SURFACE YOU ARE DRIVING ON. COULD BE A LITTLE QUIETER.
