Dry grip is the most consistent positive for the Aoteli P607, with many more owners praising it than criticising it. Wet grip receives more favourable accounts than complaints, but around one in five owners describe poor traction or low confidence in rain. Longer-use reports mostly favour tread life, while noise and steering feel are more divided. A few owners describe long stopping distances, including on dry roads. Some accounts describe tyre failures, but their causes are not established. The favourable budget-price comments therefore sit alongside varied wet-road experiences rather than a uniformly reassuring verdict.

On my second set of these. Unlike some reviewers I have found these to be a decent budget tyre. No, they are not a Michelin, Goodyear or Pirelli but at £35 each for a 234/45/17 you shouldn't expect it. Grip in the dry is near excellent. Grip in the wet is good and will give feedback if you're pushing it a bit too much. They don't just let go. The only downsides I have found is that the wear isn't great but is comparable to a set of soft expensive branded tyres. Also they are tight on the rims and fight a bit getting them on and off.
Overall if you drive WITHIN the law and keep your racing on the track where it belongs they are a good tyre.
These were already on my car when I bought it. In the dry I didn't expect miracles and I never got any. 276bhp on a front wheel drive they struggled to put the power down. Fully warmed they're markedly better but still not great. Dry warm weather they're just okay in the turns when you're halfway on it. Hard braking they're total rubbish. But in the wet? Forget it! You're gambling with your life. Aquaplanes, slides, no grip, no feel, no confidence! You're better off making tyres out of rubber bands. Don't ever buy these dangerous tyres.

I bought this tires and when it was new it was fine in the dry and wet however things goes downhill quickly about 2-3 months time and one time i rear ended a car and suprisingly i noticed the tire side wall had fail due to the emergency full brake stop i peform and that tire had failed resulted my car cant stop in time and resulted an accident.
I guess you get wat u paid for as its a very cheap chinese tires,if u dont drive alot and your car isnt a high performacd car this tire should be fine though how ever i noticed this tires dosent give any early indicators its about to let go so becareful when going into a corner as by the time it let go it would be hard go regain control of the car again.
Which tyres do you drive?
Researching the Aoteli P607? Rate the tyres you actually drive - and help the next buyer choose.
Found these tyres to be excellent. Not had any problems in the wet and definitely not like driving on ice around roundabouts (previous comment). Have had many different tyres in the past and these are as good as any as long as you are not a'boy racer'. Handling wise on my front wheel drive car is excellent, no worries on corners or emergency actions (have experienced a few, last one on the M4 where a French driver undertook and tried to force me into the crash barrier at 70mph).
Not particularly noisy and handles well over potholes.
Overall very pleased and when the time arrives will buy again.

Inexpensive tyre that holds the road well in both wet and dry conditions .....wear is also quite good ... Would definitely rate these tyres as excellent
Run 10k on a full set of these on my Mercedes viano, grip is decent in all weathers, but my vehical weights 2.5t which will have an effect. Bought 2 more in anticipation of the fronts needing replacing soon, but vianos/Vito's are notoriously heavy on fronts. The rears still look like new
I run these on an astra vxr 280bhp these tyres equal in every way the goodyear eagle f1 s I have used for years got these to get though mot at Christmas time on a budget I'm glad I found these tyres they are Not ditch finders as people say
I can't sing their praises enough. For the money youd be hard set to find a better performing tyre, I have them fitted to the rear of my remapped e60 BMW and the grip would rival that of some high end performance tyres that I've used in the past. Great road feel, low noise and good road holding capabilities in both wet and dry conditions. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a good budget tyre option
I've never brought budget tyres before. Most recently I've used Falkens and Continentals. These Aoteli's were fitted by the dealer when I brought an eighteen month old car from them. I'm now 3000 miles in. These tyres have been used in hot summer conditions, torrential rain on long motorway journeys and in freezing temperatures. They have performed excellently and I have never had any concerns. If their performance continues to be this good, I'd definitely consider another pair in the future.
Great tyre for the price. Compared to other tyres at the price they are well worth the money if your on a budget. Fuel Efficiency C. Wet grip B and tyre noise isnt so bad either.
Recently bought a Renault Megane coupe with 2 Aotelli P607 and 2 Aptaya R306 fitted - I didn't pay too much attention at first because there was plenty of tread on each tyre. However, I soon began to notice longer braking distances, even in the dry and occasional twitches and even loss of grip, especially in the wet, without being anywhere near handling limits - I've been driving Meganes for a number of years, admittedly with Michelin or Kumho tyres and never felt dodgy handling like this. So they're getting replaced asap before the weather gets colder and/or wetter and/or slippier - they do not inspire any confidence whatever! Be careful if you find these on your car!
