Passenger Car Summer Ultra High Performance Tyres Tyre Review Highlights

Kumho Ecsta PS71 rated 87% while driving a Volkswagen Golf GTI 7.5
Driving on mostly town for 200 average miles
Decided to leave a review as this very site helped me with tyre choice.
Recently replaced 6 year old P Zeros with PS71’s all round on my Golf GTi 7.5 and what a massive difference. Admittedly the P Zeros were quite old, and starting to crack, but still had minimum 5mm tread.
The ride quality is massively improved. Running exactly the same pressures, the car feels more refined, quieter, and less crashy across road imperfections. Grip levels are improved, especially in the wet, although the P Zeros had clearly gone off.
At £110 fitted per corner for a 225/35/19, I’m very impressed and will certainly buy again if wear rates are good. While I don’t tear about needlessly, I do press on now and then and the PS71’s give me confidence to do so.

THE BEST TIRE I EVER HAD.
BUT TIRES MADE IN JAPAN
THE SAME TIRE MANUFACTURED IN TURKEY IS GARBAGE!

RoadX RXMOTION U11 rated 47% while driving a Vauxhall Insignia CDTI SRI 130
Driving on a combination of roads for 5000 average miles
Fine at normal speeds in the dry. Absolutely shockingly poor grip in wet or cold conditions. They spun up in 1st, 2nd and 3rd in the winter. One of the worst tyres in the wet I've ever used. They wear fairly slowly. Replaced with Firestone Firehawk that grip exceptionally in the wet. I wouldn't reccomend them to anyone sadly.

Yokohama Advan Sport V107 rated 80% while driving a Toyota GR86
Driving on track for 1000 spirited miles
I've been closely following Jonathans recommendations for summer tyres, but I'm not always after outright grip. I had the V105 tyres on a GT86 and absolutely loved them for their progressive nature at the limit, and therefore how playful they were.

The V107 feels similar, if a little higher outright grip. Difficult to unstick on the road but perhaps this'll change with a few miles on them.

On track in the dry, these really surprised me, their relatively high grips levels didnt drop off even after 15 minutes - impressive for a road tyre! They also didnt melt, however the central rib of the tyre showed a wedge effect - unclear whether this was lack of camber (2.3deg), or running slightly too high pressure (32hot).

They provide excellent feedback, so you know whats coming - even at moderate road speeds.

They have relatively high noise on the motorways however, so don't expect a comfy touring tyre like the PS4, but the tradeoff is the feedback/communication is better.
They feel similar to the Premium Contact 6 (but grippier, however this could be because they're new), but weirdly , quieter! Loved the PC6 for dynamics (even stiffer sidewall on PC6, says my tyre fitter), but they didnt last so well on track so i'll be sticking with the V107 for a while as a great dual purpose tyre.

Haven't pushed on in the wet yet, but seem fine on the road and inspire confidence.

Would recommend the V107 for those who value feedback and being progressive at the limit! I'll update this as more miles get on them.

Uniroyal RainSport 5 rated 80% while driving a Jaguar S type 3.0
Driving on mostly country roads for 15000 spirited miles
Good tyre for the price with superb wet road performance, tackles standing water with ease. Expecting the fronts to last for around 20k before replacing with the rears probably good for another 10k. Not on the same level as a Pilot sport or Sportcontact in overall performance/longevity, but quite a bit cheaper.

Goodyear Eagle F1 Sport rated 74% while driving a
Driving on mostly motorways for 2 spirited miles
Good tyre for grip and handling but the set I had were let down by a shimmy vibration at motorway speeds. The grip and handling was excellent but I had the tyres for approximately 4,000km before I decided to change them due to the constant motorway vibrations. I personally would not buy these tyres again, nor would I recommend them to family/friends. I suspect I had a bad set.

Dynamo STREET H MU02 rated 33% while driving a BMW 530D M sport
Driving on mostly town for 10 average miles
Got told these tyres are a B rating for wet grip. Not sure who lied but they are terrible! Pulled onto the roundabout and had to apply opposite lock as the arse end tried to overtake me. As for dry grip, I pulled out of a junction briskly and left half the tread behind. Paid £90 a tyre for these. Would rather spend £60 like the last set and have them on for another 15k miles.

General Altimax One S rated 57% while driving a Audi A4 Allroad
Driving on mostly town for 4500 easy going miles
These tires have the thinnest sidewall that I've ever seen. After 4000km on the car, the front tire got a pinhole puncture from a thorn, and the damage is irreparable. Never buying these again

RoadX RXMOTION U11 rated 71% while driving a BMW 218d Active Tourer
Driving on a combination of roads for 1000 miles
Fitted on my BMW X5 with staggered 20 inch rims. First impression was horror. But......due to idiot fitters putting 52psi in , and not balanced correctly. Upon putting pressure correct, and getting rebalanced at a proper tyre fitters, I don't know any difference from my previous Bridgestone Duellers. Or continentals. No problem whatsoever. Not Star rated for BMW X5 but no probs with transfer box ,so must be consistent on diameter. Look good , cheap, and as my X5 chews rears on inner tread making contis etc uneconomical , I think these harder compound half the price will last a lot longer. Most reviewers would know the difference if these were fitted without their knowing. There aren't many awful budget brands nowadays. Some are even the previous compound and tread / mould of big brands with different make on the mould

Poor wet performance and I was not even driving like a mad person. Traction control constantly kicks in even when accelerating slowly when moving off from toll booth

Fulda SportControl 2 rated 87% while driving a Peugeot 607
Driving on a combination of roads for 8000 spirited miles
Excellent tires for an acceptable price. I mostly drove premium brands, but last month I bought Fulda Sportcontrol2 on sale and they are better than I expected. Extremely quiet, excellent on dry and wet, comfortable and give a nice feeling on the steering wheel. The car is a Peugeot 607 2.2hdi 170HP and the size is 225/50r17. The price was around 400e for 4 tires. My sincere recommendation
