Passenger Car Summer Ultra High Performance Tyres Tyre Review Highlights

Maxxis Victra Sport 5 rated 43% while driving a Mercedes Benz E350
Driving on mostly motorways for 7000 spirited miles
Had those tyres just over a year. Did aroud 7k miles(11k km) Recently noticed they are getting worn on the outside edge. Decided to replace them before something happens. Never looked on inside edge until tyre garage took the wheels off. I wish I could attach the pictures. Top layer just peeled off on the inside edge and made a 10mm gap, 10mm deep on whole wheel circumference. I've never seen this kind of damage before. Wheel alignment was done a few months before and everything seemed OK, but I asked the garage to do it again and the said everything was spot on and it must by bad batch of tyres. It's a miracle that I didn't crash because of those tyres. I'll never ever buy them again.

Sumitomo HTR Z5 rated 69% while driving a Nissan 370Z
Driving on a combination of roads for 5000 spirited miles
Excellent dry grip. I maybe abusive to this tire but that said with 8k kms on this set the front tires are half worn while the rears needed replacement. Allow 800kms for proper break in. It will feel down right sketchy. After break-in these grip and become a real fun tire. I am seeing how far the rear will without the extreme abuse. No drifting this time.

RoadX RXMOTION U11 rated 43% while driving a Abarth 595 Trofeo
Driving on a combination of roads for 200 spirited miles
These tyres came with the car, absolutely shocking grip in wet/damp conditions. Car slides out of control on round abouts and bends. Noticed it feels like the tyres are over-inflated when driving in dry conditions particularly on roundabouts if taken a bit quick. Feel like I can’t drive the car how it’s meant to be driven on B roads without worrying I’ll wind up in a farmers field!

Yokohama Advan Fleva V701 rated 77% while driving a Honda Jazz
Driving on a combination of roads for 20000 spirited miles
Dry grip - excellent, barely any tyre squeal ( 195.
Cons - NOISY, significantly noisier after changing to light weight rims.
Would recommend for the performance.

Yokohama Advan Sport V105 rated 87% while driving a Mazda MX 5 1.5 2015
Driving on mostly country roads for 24000 spirited miles
Supplied as OE by Mazda on the Mk4 MX-5 1.5. Very enjoyable tyre for a mainly fair weather car. Good dry balance. I love this tyre, which make the MX-5 feel quite darty and reponsive and have just replaced the original 4 at nearly 24,000 miles, slightly early because one was written off by a puncture. They still had c. 3mm left on them.

Subjectively would say they are noisy, and despite being on a fairly compliant car they are a bit jiggly on a poor surface at low speeds, probably due to the stiff sidewall.

Yokohama Advan Sport V105 rated 87% while driving a Mazda MX 5 1.5 2015
Driving on mostly country roads for 23000 spirited miles
These tyres were supplied as OE for the Mazda MX-5 ND 1.5. They still have 3mm tread at 23,000m, wear has been equalised by occasional rotation. They seem to be optimal for the MX-5 with great dry balance and plenty of dry grip. What the absolute performance is in the wet I couldn't say, it's a summer car and I always drive to poor conditions, but I have never had any surprises on wet roads.

Steering and turn in are consistent and sharp, I really like the feel and have loved driving the car for the last 6 years. This might be the best tyre for this car, certainly for fair weather use. The sidewalls are very stiff which presumably accounts for the agile feel of the steering. There are few 'sporty' tyres available in this size and rather than go for a premium touring tyre from Goodyear/Michelin/Continental, which might perform better on measurements overall, I have chosen to fit the same tyres again.

Subjectively the tyres are quite noisy, and ride at low speed can be jiggly - not important for me in this application. I'm glad they are still available. The V105 has reportedly been replaced by the V107 but that does not seem to be available in 196/50R6.

Sava Intensa UHP 2 rated 62% while driving a Volvo C30 R Design Sport
Driving on mostly country roads for 300 spirited miles
After buying my 2nd C30, it came with a brand new set of these tires on the summer wheels. For comparison my previous C30 is on Goodyear eagle f1 supersports. My initial thoughts are that they shouldn't be called intensa UHP 2 but rather intensa touring 2. On hard cornering you feel the tires rolling on the sidewall( this could also be strengthened by the fact that they are 235 on 7.5" rims) and they just don't give you that sporty feeling even on this car which is lowered by about 35mm. Not particularly impressive grip either, as i managed to properly embarrass myself pulling out of the school junction spinning through the entire two first gears without even trying with my 177hp in the dry. On the Goodyears they hook as you go into 2nd gear. All in all not what I would call a UHP tire, and I have now swapped over my wheels and tires from my 1st C30, and will be selling these with that car. Only redeeming quality is the comfort, but personally I would rather have a broken back with sporty handling than comfort without sports.

Toyo T1R rated 73% while driving a Mitsubishi lancer
Driving on a combination of roads for 15000 spirited miles
One of best tyres for sporty tyres. Makes a whole difference. Control and drives perfectly in dry and well ine wet. You have full control in any weather conditions. I usually run in tight corners and man these tyres grip to the road like nothing before.
The only drawback is of course the comfort which is compromise.
