Drivers’ views on the Altenzo Comforter are highly polarized. Most high-scoring reviews praise its value, quiet ride, comfort, and acceptable dry grip with solid wear, while many low-scoring reviews report very poor wet grip and occasional quality concerns. Overall, it suits calm, everyday driving but can be unsafe in the wet if pushed.

Just fitted a new set of Altezo Sports Comforters all around on my BMW 330d Tourer and they are ammazing! Thought they were good when I fitted them to my SAAB 9-3 Convertable last year, but compared with the Vredstien's i replaced...... well there is no comparision!
Don't waste your hard earned cash on the usual so called 'top' brands, get down to Tyretraders and get these beauties fitted!!!!!

Excellent tyres for the Money I have been using them for the past two years on my Mercedes E320 CDI 250bhp lots of torque, and also my BMW E93 330D 280bhp and even more torque.
The do break away in the wet when putting 500lbs ft torque through them but most tyres would, I find them comfortable and at just £55 each they are an absolute steal!
I have used Nankangs, Barums, Khumo, Triangles etc etc none of them get anywhere near these Altenzo for quality of tyre......
Only downside is having them on a heavy powerful rwd car I only get about 10k miles out of them

These tyres were excellent value for 4 and with fair reviews for a mid range tyre, they were being plugged by a lot of tyre dealers as a five star buy, Tyretraders.com, Halfords Autocentres to name but a few.
I've had these tyres on for 7k miles and they are wearing well, providing decent grip in the dry, in heavy rain around roundabouts it's a total lottery.
I'm fully aware islands can be slippery in the rain so I'm always cautious this taken into consideration all you get is bags of understeer, this is disappointing given that there review gives them C for wet grip.
Given that I normally purchase Kumho ecsta sport that's what I will buy again next time, I wouldn't recommend these tyres.
4 Altenzo comforter 225/45ZR17 on 17x8 alloy rims,great for the price
better than Michelin Energy,less noisier (70db). steering response is
crisp,at 60 mph very stable sticks to the road,comfort is impressive
for tire type,equal or surpass a lot of well known brands, if your
driving is not to agressive, with a non modified car and if this car
is not a crap... than th're great tires!
Some of the worst tyres ever for wet conditions along with very poor quality.
Very little grip in moist or wet conditions and average at best in the dry. 2 of the 4 tyres I bought had to be replaced after 12 months due to design defects (side wall bulge and tread peeling away from tyre).
DO NOT BUY THESE TYRES IF YOU VALUE YOUR LIFE OR THE LIVES OF YOUR PASSENGERS ! BE WARNED !
Fitted them to the V70 bus about 18 months ago, replacing Goodyear Optigrips. Result: Fuel economy up, wear down and grip about the same. I have since recommended to family and friends, everbody seams happy! My conclusion is this is a mid range tyre, at a budget price.
This is a follow up review after another 4000miles. The tyres are terrible. The compound is hard and is poor in wet and dry weather though it does wear very well. The tyres let go on corners and roundabouts all the time. I work for a Chinese car manufacturer and so I'm not one to readily criticise Chinese products because it's from china but don't buy these china knock offs. The compound is more plastic than rubber and as a result have a very poor friction coefficient. This has result in a few hair raising moments. I replaced these with some Vredestein winters which are much better.
This is a follow up to my recent review, I think all the reviewers who say these tyres are bad in the wet conditions are doing 1 of two things or both.
I have had my tyres on for just a week and if you read my review about these tyres you will see the conditions I was driving in was at its worst on my first long journey on them. So bad reviewers start driving your vehicle properly and slow down tyres in the wet will not be safe be safe if your speeding.
1 they are exceeding speed limits
2 they are just bad drivers
