Bought an Audi A8 with these on, tyres were brand new and totally ruined the car, hard ride, felt everything though suspension, howled at 50mph or above but worst of all could not get them to balance despite two attempts, vibration was terrible. Replaced them with Goodyear asymmetric 3 and completely transformed the car.

Bought a Land Cruiser with a brand new set of these fitted at low speeds all is fine but get above 50mph and it’s a different vehicle. I have been into the garage three times to have them rebalanced as the vibration is horrendous. The conclusion is that the tyres are ‘out of round’ therefore faulty and will need changing. Getting vibration through the seat and the steering. After reading some of the reviews about these tyres on here and the conflict of opinions between them and mine I can only assume I got mine from a faulty batch. I would not recommend them for premium vehicles. Buy cheap buy twice! And now the garage will have to replace them.

Positively surprised by the overall performance of these Tyres. Budget priced but quiet and cannot fault the grip in the dry and especially in the wet which is where I thought they would be susceptible. Fitted to a Range Rover they have now done over 20,000 miles and still have a good few thousand miles left in them. I had just bought the Car and after considerable expense in the initial Car purchase put these Tyres on with the intention of upgrading them to a set of the well known brands later on when finances permitted. I honestly can't fault them and shocked at how well they are performing to the extent that I will be replacing them with the same when they eventually wear out. I drive around 25K miles a year and have done for over 40 years and these tyres are as good as any I have experienced in fact even better than some of the more popular German, Italian and French brands which are literally double the price and then some. In the past I have bought some budget tyres and instantly regretted it realising it was a false economy but these Accelera ST's have totally surpassed my expectations.

Like what others have said these tyres cause some odd vibrations at 60+ I’ve even had them road force balanced which helped a bit but due to the high road force you can still feel it.

Would not recommend them.

Quiet and comfort at slow speed, but vibrates like hell when cruising at 60 mph. Ride feels plush and quiet on my Lexus RX350. For this price, I can't complain.

We bought a Ford Edge in 2020 and it had a brand new pair of these fitted on the front. I’d never heard of the brand and I was a bit sceptical.
But 3 1/2 years later we have covered 21,000 miles and the edges are just going off, I think they have worn very well on the front of a 2.2 ton car and a good 8k of the miles had been towing a large caravan.
They have performed well in all weathers and the car has been driven quite ‘spiritedly’ at times.
I have just ordered a new set of 4, so if I can get another 3/4 years and 20+ thousand miles out of them I will be very happy.

I have had these tyres on my car for 3 years,covering almost 18,000 miles. The rears are practically still new the fronts have about 3 mm left on them.
Living and driving in central Scotland we have a lot of rain, and these tyres have never let me down in some challenging conditions including snow.
Just starting to feel the front not as grippy as they have been. I will be looking to replace them within the next 1000/2000 miles,i can honestly say these tyres haven't let me down in Dry and Wet.

Good road holding in the dry, much better than the scary pirelli scorpion in the wet condition, doesn’t aqua planned as much as the pirelli scorpion that came with the car. Have only driven for 10,000km so let’s see how long it would last, i’d be happy if it last 40,000km but the compound seems way softer compare to the scary pirelli scorpion.

The Accelera IOTA ST-68 replace my original ones from factory Continental ContiSportContact 5 lasted 25000 miles & 3 and half years, good tyre but a bit noisy and £40 a corner more expensive. I only done 1000 miles and so far, makes the car drive smother and quieter rated A-68db C+C 103 V XL. I will come back later after I done a bit more mileage, these Accelera IOTA ST-68 have a new pattern. I already driven in heavy rain and their stud very well I was impressed, so far 4 stars

In October 2019 I needed to change all 4 tyres on my Audi Q5. I took into consideration that I was going to be driving on a long holiday to Italy in June 2020, so I did some research and tried to get the best set of low cost tyres to last me until June when I would change to more premium ones. Well Covid 19, appeared my holiday was cancelled and it’s now January 2022, some 2 years and 4 months later. I never did buy those premium tyres. I still have some tread on all the Accelera Iota st68 tyres but because an idiot driving at speed two months ago forced me to hit a kerb at about 25mph I badly damaged the edge of one tyre and two have inner wear. I only noticed when I recently washed my car. I have decided to change all 4 and guess what I’ve bought another set of Accelera Iota ST68. 4 tyres plus fitting and disposal of the old ones has cost me £441 that’s £110 pound a corner. I’ve done over 20000 miles on the old ones so I cannot complain and I have no complaints.

The best tyre I have ever used

Fitted IOTA ST68 275/40 R20 to the front of my 2012 Range Rover Sport replacing Pirellis. These are a revelation, in terms of road holding, comfort and general improvement to the handling of the car. The car is now a pleasure to drive and is almost unrecognisable from the experience on Pirellis. I tow a caravan and have just returned from an 700 mile round trip. The previous tyres had a disconcerting habit of following the ruts made by HGVs in the inside lane to the point, at times, it was almost dangerous. I can't even say I noticed this phenomena with the Accelera tyres. I can't comment on longevity but at about half the price of top branded tyres I wont be too concerned. Very pleased will definitely buy these again.

After a 1600km motorway trip these tires have fared very well so far. The terrain consisted of dry, wet and ice and at no time did I feel like I was losing control of the car. They are very quiet and comfortable and mine are 22s. Early days but so far so good.

Running my Vauxhall antara on a full set of st68. Covered 8000 miles .still plenty of tread left. For a budget tyre I have found them better than most. I am not a boy racer but I don't drive sedately either. I live in a town full of roundabouts and so front nearside outer edge of tyre takes the brunt of the wear. Very pleased all. Will purchase same again. I have driven in all weathers, including snow. I didn't crash or get stuck so they can't be that bad. I do wonder how some people drive when you read some of the reviews.
