175/65 13 Tyre Review Highlights

Event Futurum rated 10% while driving a Toyota iq
Driving on mostly town for 18000 easy going miles
175/65R 13H Futurum GP EVENT Dated 09/19...... 4 years old.
2 Rear tyres on a Toyota IQ, DRIVEN BY MY WIFE. Around 10 miles per day.
I now have to replace both of these tyres as they have both badly cracked between the tread lines.

Uniroyal RainExpert 3 rated 83% while driving a Volkswagen Polo 1.4 8v
Driving on a combination of roads for 4000 spirited miles
65% 13" tyres are getting rarer in a quality brand, so unable to buy this size in Michelin, I tried these on my Polo 1.4 CL. Now I don't do many miles, but do make occasional 90 mile cross-Pennine or motorway journeys at speed. Wet weather grip and braking on these tyres is superb and very confidence-inspiring. For day-to-day running, I set the car with 30psi front/28psi rear (add 2psi all-around for motorway/load) that dials-out excessive understeer, while giving a neutral but safe handling balance. I've no complaints about dry grip that seem on a par with the old Michelin Energy, (unlike the cheap tyres fitted by the previous owner, where you didn't so much as steer the car, but made a suggestion on your desired direction. My favourite roundabout was not so much fun when it looked like I would be going over, rather than around it) they make it able to dart around sudden hazards in the road without drama, and cope with high speed cornering. Being a VW the steering doesn't communicate much anyway, but I know what's happening. The tyres give a handling balance that makes a cross-Pennine journey, with a “spirited” drive through the many swoops and dives an entertaining experience, nevertheless. Most likely not the highest-mileage tyre, but if fitted to the household’s second car, or your daughter/son’s first car the grip levels will keep them safe without too much of an outlay.
