these tyres are great for the money. Love them, they have been replaced by the ZV5 which are just as good. I had ZZ3's fitted to my previous car a Seat Ibiza TDI Sport and covered over 50000 miles (obviously not one set of ZZ3's) this encouraged me to buy again for my new car.

Used to always buy avon zz3's, the zv5 replaced those. When looking for my latest set of tyres i decided to get uniroyal rainsport 2 however immediately they didnt seem right, few others drove the car and agreed, luckily enough the dealer took the uniroyals back and fitted the zv5's (which i should have bought in the first place.) The change in the car was instantaneous,grip was much better and the feedback was alot better. If they wear the same as the zz3 then they will wear uneven and probably not last as long as other tyres, but definately great tyre for the money.

I purchased these on the review from this site, Once fitted (to the rear) i quickly noticed the car didnt quite seem itself. Thinking i was goin mad i asked my father to drive the car and he agreed it just "didnt feel planted" and "feels boaty". The balancing tracking was all ok, so put the tyres onto the front, prevented the boatiness mostly so i then looked into the reason why..............i noticed that the sidewall of the tyre is only 1 ply where as my standard tyres and tyres that i had replaced were all two ply thus stiffer/less roll. Im sure these tyres would be perfect for some one who wasnt as "spirited" a driver.
