Volvo V70 2.5 Tyres

Just a great all round tyre. Replaced Continental Eco Contacts as I had 3 fail on me and these are better in all respects. Dry, wet, noise, economy and wear they beat the BIG brands. Gone through 3 sets now and love 'em. Just replaced 2 with Hankook Optimo K415s as TZ200's out of stock and wish I hadn't.

Used to use Continentals as the car came with them but had 3 failures so decided to try something else. These TZ200s are better. I wouldn't go to budget brands but these have been great. I have had many sets now having done 200000 miles in my car. They last 22-25000 on the front after sitting on the rears for a similar mileage. I currently have 2 Hankook Optimo K415 on as the TZ200s were out of stock. They are a similar price but no where near as good in the wet. Firestone next time.

These tyres came on my V70 when I bought it 2nd hand. I wouldn't normally buy a premium brand like Dunlop, but having a blowout on a cheap low profile tyre in my last car made me think differently. Anyway, these tyres have performed brilliantly at motorway speeds, on icy roads (even going up and down hills) and taken all sorts of country abuse (potholes, unsurfaced tracks etc) without complaint. I've just ordered another set!

Using them in a Volvo V70 for ordinary easy driving. car is poor on streering feel anyway but tyres performed well all round and life was looking at 25-27k on the front which is fine on this size car
Would definately buy again

I can not say many bad things about these tyres, When it come to buying these they were a cheaper tyre compare to other tyre i.e bridgestone and continental's.

Not only are they cheaper they have performed much better then any other tyre i have driven on they are very good when it come's to wet weather compared to other tyres mainly because of there directional pattern. Also the very good feature i like is how if your not good with telling were the wear bars are or even understanding them it has a bit of text saying "Replacement Tyre Monitor" Which once wore down turn into "Replace Tyre" very neat extra.

But any way back to writing about the qaulity of the tyre, now sadly they havent got the best comfort in the world but to be honest it isnt to noticble but i rather and a 4 star comfort tyre and a 10 star wear tyre then a 10 star comfort tyre and a 4 star wear tyre. That the main and only draw back i can find with in these tyre now i found many people call this a mid range tyre to be honest place that sold them to me told me there a premium tyre and i 100% agree with them. I Highly recommend people to try these as i rate the highly and will carry on buying these over many other brands as like i said it says me alot of money and i get much better tyre.

Just put them on, half the price of the Pirelli P6000s that they replaced. No complaints, have driven in wet and dry and don't notice any difference from the Pirellis. The only way to check the difference between tyres is on the track- you will very, very seldom reach the limit on the road ( I raced single seaters for 10 years so I know what I'm talking about). Don't know about wear or whether I'd buy again as only covered 1000 miles so far.

Just not as good as the hype from German Mags would have us believe. They are poor in the wet. See my review of Firestone TZ200s for similar money. Overall OK but there are better tyres for this mid range money.
