SEAT Ibiza FR TDi Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Hankook OPTIMO K415 given 98% (205-45-16-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 1000 spirited miles
Well this is the first time I have ever spent more than ?50 per tyre and after much research I decided to either go for Hankook V12 Evo K110's or Yokohama Parada Spec 2's. Seen as both tyres were on back order for my size, I was offered the K415's as an alternative. All I can say is they are amazing - quieter than the previous budgets, more grip, better in the wet and basically just an amazing tyre! I would definatly recommend and buy again altho id still like to try the V12 Evos! Also they were a bargain at ?82 each - thats cheaper than everything else I looked at! Just to see how long they last now!

Writing about the Uniroyal Rainsport 2 given 97% (205-40-17-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 100 spirited miles
Fantastic all round tyre! The best road tyre i've used and i've used a few ! Stunning wet grip and all the dry grip you'll ever need! Have done 50+ laps of the nurburgring on this set of tyres in wet and dry conditions plus four uk track days fantastic! Not as good as a real track day tyre on the track but ok for 9 min laps of the ring in my diesel so must be ok.

I have fitted these all round on my ibiza fr tdi, all i can say is wow!!
Had Toyo T1r an Falken FK452 before both good but these are much much better, quieter an have much better grip.
£59 each all in from R&M tyres medway.

Writing about the Uniroyal Rainsport given 90% (205-45-16-V)
Driving on a combination of roads for 22000 spirited miles
Why to buy this tires:
- Fantastic tyres on rain (at 180km/h on very wet road it goes smooth and secure)
- On dry it goes as good as any good performance tire
- It as a good road feedback (u might strange it at the beginning, but when u force it it just turns harder and harder)
- Progressiveness is smooth (your car wont spin without understanding)
- Changing tyres half the wear, it can hold 35000km with curve speeding (the Ibiza destroys any tyre on the exterior side)
- Good comfort considering the low profile of the tyre

Finally the PRICE:
- VERY GOOD PRICE FOR A BRAND WITH STATUS

DEFINITELY A TYRE TO BUY AGAIN AND AGAIN

Writing about the BFGoodrich gForce Profiler 2 given 89% (205-45-16-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 30000 average miles
Full set fitted at 19,000 miles and 24,000 miles from the front tyres with all kinds of driving not the quietest of tyres but great all round performance with good levels of warm up and grip in both wet and dry conditions.
Rears still going after 30,000 miles with about 3.5mm tread left am hunting for a new full set.
Put Hankook V12 on after and they spin up alot easier in cold conditions and seem to under steer more due to a softer side way.
All in all I will be buying profiler 2's again if I can get them good trye

Writing about the Vredestein Sportrac 3 given 84% (205-45-16-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 20000 average miles
These tyres are good value for the money. They do not wear very well i have replaced the tyres approx every 9K-10K. The grip is brilliant in dry, good in wet but with the heavy diesel up front it can lose grip on the odd occassion.
Overall however i am very happy with the tyres.

Writing about the Pirelli PZero Nero given 81% (205-40-17-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 15000 spirited miles
For standard fit I was genuinly surprized with these tyres,excelent grip wet or dry. Moving from Proxies on my previous car the balance between level of grip available and wear was very good. They didn't have the outright grip the Toyos' had but lasted 50% longer with 75% of the grip.
I will 100% be replacing them with the same tyre.

Writing about the Pirelli PZero Nero given 70% (205-40-17-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 46000 spirited miles
Came as standard fit from newand the car has always handled excellently on the P Zero Nero in both the wet and dry. Have chosen to replace like for like on the car to date.

There are several negatives. One being that these tyres don't seem to have a long lifespan, and the cost doesn't help. Although the handling is excellent wet and dry, I stay of the road in the snow, when they feel like trying to grip a metal pole covered in grease.
