Vauxhall Zafira 2.0 dti Tyre Review Highlights

Driving on a combination of roads for 8000 average miles
Bought these today from micheldever tyres, instantly noticed the difference with grip and sound. The tyres take corners well and seem to grip on to the road nicely when dry, the quietness of the tyre is really noticeable.

The only thing I can't comment on it the tyre wear and wet grip, but as long as you don't abuse your tyres then you should be fine and these look as though they are the real deal.

I previously has Michelin Energy savers and I found these wore down quickly, within a year they were down to 3mm and that's on about 7-8000 miles in the year. I wasn't impressed with those.

My personal choice was either these or the Kumho Ecowing tyres & Dunlop were the only ones in stock.

Good choice tyre and I am very happy that they have turned out well.

I have had these tyres about a year, I know these aren't winter tyres but these tend to slip in the cold mornings when i am pulling off from a T Junction (I haven't had this with previous tyres and I am not flooring it).
Secondly I am shocked to see that the tread has gone quite far down, I previously had Budget tyres (Kumho i think) and they lasted way longer than these, I am sure that my tyres are in line and the tracking is fine.
So 2 things to point out and thirdly I do not notice any change in fuel usage, I am not expecting a dramatic difference but there has been no difference at all.
I think these tyres are way overrated and not worth the extra money.
I am not going to buy these again.
I hope this has helped, I wanted to pass on my experience to help others as I have found this website helpful for other tyre reviews.

Driving on a combination of roads for 36000 spirited miles
I had these fitted to a Zafira 2.0dti, not a performance car so the lack of turn-in and feedback wasn't an issue despite mixed urban/country (often spirited) driving. Excellent performance in snow and rain saved the day on many occasions over 'closed' Peak District roads. Quiet, comfortable and fuel economy seemed unaffected. I can't believe they were still legal after 36,000 miles!!! Whilst driving feedback scores low it simply isn't noticed 98% of the time. Definitely buy again.

Wow! Yes, that really is a wow!

I fitted these to a Zafira 2.0DTI towards the end of October 2011 and I'm only just looking to replace them in the next few weeks as they are down to nearly 3mm on the lowest.
Now that may not seem a long time but the vehicle in question is used as a taxi, can carry six passengers at times (a lot of weight when cornering or on roundabouts), does a lot of short stop-start nipping about runs as well as 300 mile round trip airport runs and travels from 7500-10000 miles every month. A hard working vehicle with hard working tyres!

This Zafira runs on steel wheels with 195/65/15 so when loaded down and pushed the tyres are working much harder than the 205's used with alloy wheels.

I would sum up these tyres as the best overall performing and longest wearing tyres I have ever had on for winter use and will get 40,000 from them from new to 3mm and by shopping around for circa £300 for all for corners fitted.
Would I buy again... YES, although a local Michelin supplier is trying to convince me on the comparable merits of the Kleber Quadraxer, an all-season tyre thats FULLY winter rated.
