Wet grip is the main concern with the Achilles ATR Sport 2, criticised by 19 of 38 owners, half the reviews, against four favourable comments. Dry grip is much better received, with 17 positive mentions against four criticisms, and some owners also like its low noise and price. Wet handling draws five complaints, around one in eight owners, while sidewall feel and high-speed stability are less settled. Mid-life and end-of-life accounts include useful remaining tread as well as an early replacement, so wear praise does not establish a uniform lifespan. There are no follow-up reviews from the same owners to show a shared ageing pattern. The 60.1% average, with 14 positive and 18 neutral reviews, sits alongside a substantial wet-weather reservation.

Great value for money tyres. Was hesitant initially when comparing against premium brands for safety but proved to be my best choice. Was on Pirelli P-zeros and the Achilles are way more silent and comfortable all round after almost 3000km. And only one third the price of the Pirellis, which by the way had rubber pieces break off inside side wall of one tyre around 30000km, and dangerously exposed wire mesh
Probably one of the best China tires on market today. Good performance overall in dry condition, but id does not deliver in cold and wet conditions. When driving in temperatures lower than 10C, have in mind that these tires will under-steer and have long brake length in dry and wet conditions. The tires are also making a lot noise.

Researching the Achilles ATR Sport 2? Rate the tyres you actually drive - and help the next buyer choose.
These tires are GREAT. For under $100 for 245/35/20 front 275/30/20 rear. You cannot beat the performance for the price. Note! These tires have to warm up a bit to get full grip, but when they do, amazing.
I have experience snap oversteer at the extreme limit a couple times but usually very progressive.
Wet - With RWD can be slippery on tight corner exiting.
I'd recommend for anyone looking for good performance on a bought.
Good on dry but slight poor on wet. were we can see with the arrow rotation, it's doesn't help. drive about 80kmh, hit the water it pull to side which ever side of the water is. but with that dry grip and price. i will buy again. To me, is cheap n nice.
Dry grip is excellent while wet is ok. Threadwear is high and I expect it to last a while. Best thing is the value for money. Cost half the price compared to Conti/Michelin
Terrible in the wet, my confidence dropped significantly after changing my stockies with these tyres. Performing good when dry, even better when warmed up. I'd only buy them again if I live in Africa or the Middle East.
Bought this tyres about 4 months back, great value for money. For the price I paid and the performance I am getting..... what else to ask for.... will definately buy again
use this tyres for 1000km plus. few the tyres quite comfortable compare before changing the tyres. the dry grip is superb... but when Heavy rain, just drive below 100km/h to keep you safe. the brake respond is very good.
