Matador MP 62 All Weather Evo Owner Reviews

Review this tyre

What owners say summarised from 6 reviews

Snow traction is the most consistently praised aspect of the Matador MP 62 All Weather Evo, mentioned favourably by three of six owners, but road noise draws three complaints. Two owners criticise wet grip and two describe little steering feedback, while wet handling divides the small group. The two end-of-life accounts disagree on tread life, so there is no shared durability verdict. Half the reviews describe the tyre when new, and no owner has written a later review of the same tyre to track changes with wear. The 48.7% average includes four neutral scores and two below 40%, with no review above 70%.

Initial Impressions
I have driven a total of 7,000 km-spanning both summer and winter seasons-in a mix of city and highway conditions. In the summer heat, the road holding on long-distance trips was quite good. I also drove on wet, rainy roads; while the braking distance was reasonable, the tires didn't inspire confidence as speeds increased, so I slowed down. In winter, on icy surfaces, the braking performance at moderate speeds was good. My vehicle is a Toyota Corolla, and the tire noise is excessive.

A generally good tire with good handling on dry and wet roads. Also good in snow with a 4x4 Skoda Yeti and on light off-road terrain. However, it's noisy on the road above 80 km/h. Finely treaded winter tires are much quieter! It might also depend on the suspension; next time I'll get a different all-weather tire.

It's an okay tyre overall. It is neither stiff nor soft, it handles okay but there is little feedback from the road. In wet conditions it could be a little better as the car understeers easily. In light snow and ice it's very good for an all weather tyre. It has lasted 40000 km before it started to crack on the sidewalls . My only problem is that it can be very very noisy epsecially in high speed. I'm not gonna buy it again mainly for the rolling noise.
