The set of 4 MRF ZVTV tyres came with the Maruti Ciaz, I had purchased in August 2016.
The tyres are definitely ok in both wet and dry conditions.
I have clocked a little over 61,000 kms so far on my odometer. And almost 90% of my total kms clocked in my car has been on highway drives. Where the roads have been pretty good for most of the journeys. But when the roads were bad, they were pretty bad and riddled with potholes and ditches. But yes, the tyres did handle the potholes and ditches quite well too.
Did not have any tyre puncture in the first 4 years. But post the 5th and nearly the 6th year now, I'm having a few punctures. But worse still are the air leaks from the tyre edges that fit around the alloy wheels. This means having to sandpaper the alloy rims so that the tyre edges fit more securely around the edges of the alloy wheels, thus not allowing the air to leak or escape anymore.
Not driven on any other car tyres in India to compare with.
But driven for over 18 years in the UAE on Bridgestone B290 tyres. And they were very good tyres for the highways and city roads too. Enjoyed good grip, handling and mileage with them. Unfortunately, as per UAE Vehicle passing rules they had to be changed every 3 years or so. But by then, I.used to clock over 70,000 kms using them.
