Kleber Dynaxer HP 3 Owner Reviews

Review this tyre

What owners say summarised from 12 reviews

Owners of the Kleber Dynaxer HP 3 most consistently praise tread life, with several longer-use accounts describing low wear after substantial use. Dry grip and handling are generally viewed favourably, and value is another positive for everyday driving. Wet performance is less convincing: several owners advise caution or report weak grip, although others are satisfied. One owner describes wet handling declining after the first year, but this is not a repeated ageing pattern. Comfort and noise receive more praise than criticism in a small number of accounts, so neither is a clear consensus strength.

Initial Impressions

It drives well in the city. Abrupt reactions when braking on dry surfaces, rather sufficient on wet ones, punctures easily. Quite economical in consumption. Absolutely comfortable and quiet. I would probably buy it again.

I’ve been using the Kleber Dynaxer HP3 (185/65 R15) on my 1997 Nissan Primera P11 for the past 10 years, covering around 40,000 kilometres, mostly in city traffic and on the Autobahn. Throughout the entire period, the tyres have been very reliable and consistent. They also had remarkably low wear in my use case. The tread depth is still good, and I’m only replacing them now due to their age. In terms of tread I could easily drive them for several more years. I drive in a fairly relaxed manner (mostly 100-120 km/h on the Autobahn, and rarely exceeding 140 km/h) and I’ve never encountered a situation (wet or dry) where the tyres felt unstable or unsafe. They also did well during a few emergency stops. They were reasonably priced in my tyre size and I'd buy them (or the successors) again without any hesitation.

Excelence tyre, I bought them before 5 years and I have installed on a mazda 6 2003 1,8. At the begining tires was so shoft at feedback and had very high level of comfort. It was like driving a two dimension higher profile. This sense last for 1-2 months. After this time tires become a bit harder than the first driving days.The most significant about this brand was the low level of wear. After 5 years have 5mm and nothing on them remind their constracting year.

They were 30% cheaper than any premium tyre and FOR THEIR PRICE they were really good, and wear is a strong feat, as well as dry grip and road feedback and prediction. Wet handling is ok, but would advise caution. Climate is mostly hot here in Greece, so their weak point, wet handling and braking doesn't appear much. Comfort is ok. Recommended for budget solution. Was driving them 30.000 Km in the city and about 20.000 Km Country roads, almost always to their limits. Depends on the driver, but I was really pleased with these tyres.

Bought these as cheapest 95C XL i could find for my ford galaxy 2.3 petrol+lpg in 2015. First year the tyres were superb in both dry and wet. But 2016 and 2017 wet grip has deteriorated. Now 2018 wet got a bot better. Drove 25 thousand miles on them. All are in the 3-4mm range left, with 2-3mm on the sides. Galaxy is quite a heavy car, and for summer holidays we pack it bigtime. Have always pumped them 2,8-3,5 bar so the sidewall wear is strange here. I will run them down this year. For a budget tyre they offer good grip and in corners they are predictable. Wet handling that deteriorated quickly is a big minus. Also wear in 20000miles seems big, though galaxy is quite heavy so i would attribute the wear to this factor.

I have that tyre on for fiesta 1.4 tdci, great tyre for that small car. Wet or dry handling great. Not for sport or racing, but for every day driving great tyre for that price. I've make 40 000 km and still good.

I've had these tires on my Opel Vectra C station wagon for about 4 years now.

The tire might be good for lighter cars, but since Vectra weighs about 1600 kg unloaded, these tires had a tough job keeping the car rolling... They are too weak for this car. It felt like the car was floating on water while on dry road. I tried different air pressures and in the end I had to get them up to 3.3 bar to keep the car from giving me sea-sickness.

Wet grip is also one of the issues these tires don't seem to handle well. Aquaplaning happened quite often, even at lower speeds (70 km/h).

They don't have a rim-protection edge.

In "sporty" or spirited moments, the tire gives very little feedback about what is going on with the wheels. The sides are soft and car seems to tilt a lot (even after going -30 mm + stiffer shocks on all four corners last year).

On the other hand, they were cheap, so this is a plus. Also, they wear quite slow (on our cra**y roads in Slovenia).

Would I buy them again? No. Specially not for a heavy car like my Vectra.

p.s. Father in law has these on a Citroen Picasso mk1 and is quite satisfied. Lighter, softer car. And a lighter right foot, too :)

Had these fitted instead of our usual preference of Michelin Energy Saver's
They were 30% cheaper than the Michelin's and for the price they were pretty good, as far as wear is concerned. Dry grip was on par with more expensive options, as well as predictability. In the wet these tyres wheel hop the 90 hp car so easily that extra caution is required. Ride comfort is also subpar compared to more premium options. Had one of them torn from the sidewall because of a sharp metal nail embedded in a kerb during parking. Recommend only for budget minded buyers with easy going driving habits.

I think these are midrange/high end budjets?

After some Corsa 55's on the rears that turned out to be the noisiest and unresponsive tyres I have ever had these have transformed the car no end!

I recently replaced the complience bushes and rear wheel bearings as the car was handling badly and had become extremely noisy (wheel bearings noise) but found the car was no different after splashing out £200. I was advised that the Corsa tyres were the probable culprit of my woes, and they were even though they had 6mm left on them! the Klebers are extremely quiet in comparison (bearing noise has now gone) and the car is now happy at any significant speed (previusly 70MPH was the limit where the car was starting to feel unstable) Moral of this story dont buy budjet far eastern made tyres! P.s. my fuel consumption is better as well :) Although only having these on for a few weeks they feel like a quality tyre. Time will tell how well they wear?

A reliable tyre at a reasonable price could do better at noise reduction on different road surfaces but after all you buy a tyre for price and longevity which you can expect 30,000 at sensible driving conditions...May be better tyres on the market but... if your happy with what you have bought and buy again why not recomend.
