When I bought the car(second hand), the garage had fitted two new front tyres. The garage was involved in selling sports cars and also raced their own car. They highly recommended these tyres. I was still unsure. A few weeks driving the car had me convinced. These were as least as good as the original fitment if not better. When the rears (original fitment brand) needed replacement, I chose Hankook. And when the fronts needed replacement, again I stuck with Hankook. Not only do they give the car great feel , precise steering and reduced jarring, they deliver high mileage at an excellent price. Hard to beat. Note it is important to set the right tyre pressure to get the best from them. (PS. why no 5's in the scores? That would mean that they're perfect and can't be improved on. I'm sure someone will, sometime.

I can honestly recommend these tyres, they perform very well on wet and dry roads. The only thing I can complain about is the noise they make when driving, it is not great but it is there.

I do not recommend these tyres. I think they are made of poor quality materials. The tyres on the drive axle were worn out after 7000km, on the non-drive axle after 7000km, they were worn out to 50%. Of course, the manufacturer did not accept the complaint. Very poor quality. I do not recommend it unless you have a lot of money and are willing to change the tyres every few thousand kilometres. A big negative from me!

Hankook evo zużył się po przejechaniu 26000 km. Continental trwał ponad 45000, podobnie jak Dunlop. Kup te, aby zaoszczędzić 20 ponad koszt Conti lub Dunlop, a kupisz ponownie za niecałą połowę przebiegu. Więc zrób sobie przysługę i spójrz na długoterminowe i wydać dodatkowe 20. To jest druga recenzja tych opon, ponieważ pierwsza nie została opublikowana..

These tyres have only covered 26000kms, which is half of what each of Dunlop SP2030 as OE on car as new and Contiental Sport Contact 5 as second set did. I have size 225/45r18 for Mazda 6 2012 which is used by my wife for normal, daily driving on highways. If you want to save 20.00 Euro then go ahead and get those tyres, but it will cost you in the long run, because you will need to replace them in half the time as other best brands. I honestly thought that being listed by Oponeo as a premium brand tyre, it would be a good product, guess not so much. The tread wear is totally uneven as the channels are all different now, and the pressure was maintained at 32PSI and checked every two weeks. I think it’s time to relegate this tyre to medium class tyres. Stay away! - is my opinion and spend €20.00 to € 140.00 more to save yourselves time and money and grief afterwards.
