Bought tyres second hand 3 months ago, had no trouble whatsoever. I would say, the users with the grumbles have not looked closely enough at the tyre walls and seen the word ' outside' printed on them and put them on the wrong way round.

Have driven on these for a few hundred miles from brand new and were worst mistake I have ever made in tyre choice, should be banned as so dangerous grip in anything other than bone dry must be a Z in tyre rating and dry grip a F

Absolutely no lateral grip in the wet, noisy, hard compound spoils the ride and terrifying in the wet. Fitted to a car purchased a week ago second hand, replacing now with Fulda Eco Control, the exact opposite of these truly awful tyres.

Review your Mohawk M112 >

Bought theze from HiQ Tyrez, having asked for medium range tyde. Never heard of them before but have now driven for around 1000 miles on them on the front. Have been OK in dry weather but with the first rain for a while, I have nearly scared myself stupid several times. I thought it was just a road surface problem at first but now don't trust the tyres. Pulling away from a junction in the wet, I get wheel spin most times. AVOID THESE LIKE THE PLAGUE!!!

Never heard of them before came on the car brand new was surprised had very little problems with them. Not like the other cheap brands

These are the worst tyres I have ever owned. Put on for me by TRUST Ford Bradford. They must have really disliked me. They are dangerous and feedback from them is none existant. If you have some drive with caution.

Inherited Mohawk tyres when I bought an MX5 - lost back end several times on roundabouts in rain - replaced them with with Michelin Pilot Sport and the difference is unbelievable.

I inherited these tyres on my Saxo VTR (No, I'm not a boy racer - I'm in my 40's) and can quite confidently say they are dreadful in the wet, actually downright dangerous.

The tyres have very little wear, so it isn't down to their age. At the slightest hint of moisture on the road driving becomes more like a "skidpan" experience. Aquaplaning across two lanes on the motorway whilst only doing 55mph is not remotely amusing, nor is having to hold my breath every time I enter a roundabout. If you have these tyres, get them changed ASAP - the cost will pay for itself next time it rains.

Used these for a few years now, small Corsa van. Average around 45-50k miles per set of tyres and they perform great all round. I do a lot of miles, sometimes 2 sets per year so have plenty of use/experience with them.
I had Federals and Hankooks before these and I rate the Mohawk's better in every respect.
All good for a semi budget tyre, and better than some big brand names

can confirm everything said about this tyre. Lost the back end 90 degrees on roundabouts a few times whilst WET/DAMP. The wear rate is so bad my polo looks like it has a massive void in the wheel well now. I only drive mainly motorway miles but the wear is worst i have ever seen.
WARNING: IF YOU CHANGE TO WINTER TYRES ON THE FRONT AXEL DO NOT LEAVE THESE ON THE BACK, the difference in grip between front to back will be dramatic and you will end up in a mess.
never buying again. currently looking for alternative tyre.

Inherited these on a recent second hand car purchase
Fairly mediocre in the dry, lack any real feedback at all
But that is not the highlight, the wet grip is like having banana skins on each corner.
Approaching a roundabout in mildly damp conditions at approx 20 mph - leisurely pace for the road, no real traffic (thank christ!) and the back end let go without any warning whatsoever. I mean literally no feedback that it was going to go, one minute planted and going around the roundabout from 6 to 3 o'clock position and at 12 o'clock position the back end swung out 90 degrees! Luckily managed to recover into a drift with a swift bit of steering and exit out of my intended target - all down to years of experience on the road, track and IAM advanced driving. If the wife had been driving the car would have been smashed no doubt at all.

Only slightly positive thing is that given they appear to be made from a non-wearing rubber compound they should last an eternity, assuming you don't write your car off in the wet of course!

Had these fitted to my Seat Leon FR and it was the worst mistake i have made. they were pretty bad at keeping grip in the day but in the wet they were down right dangerous. I was following 2 cars going round a corner in rush hour traffic once and then half way through the bend the rear tires (MOHAWK FITTED) just let go and found myself in the oncoming lane inches from another car!!! can not say how bad these tires are!

I've never had a problem with these tyres - my Jaguar XJS 3.6 is a heavy, well balanced, reasonably fast car that sticks to the road in the dry even if I throw it around a roundabout. At £65 per corner they were a bargain. I've seen them for £81 each recently. Being a classic car I don't drive it much in the wet, but I've never noticed any problems on wet or damp roads. Mohawk are the budget brand of Yokohama. Now that tyres are rated for economy/rolling resistance, wet grip and noise it is easy to compare tyres and know what you are buying. I believe that M112 tyres are rated 'E' for economy and 'E' for wet grip - so according to official ratings not the best, but not the worst either.

The only tyres iv ever had that i would actually say were bad. The grip in the dry is ok but only ok but as soon as the road turns even a little bit damp they have as much grip as a greased eel! Worse is the fact that they will completely let go with no warning what so ever useless and even dangerous tyres! Also frequently needed air in despite no slow punctures. A full set of these mockeries was fitted new to my car when i bought it 2nd hand but have now replaced all 4 with some avon zv5's before the mowhawks kill me! Avoid like the plague

These came on a Mark 5 GTI I bought 2nd hand this year and whilst they were nearly new when the car was bought in September 2013, they are going tomorrow in favour of Michelin Pilot Premacys. The road noise is terrible, the lack of grip is scary and the ride comfort is poor. All things considered, they are by far the worse tyres I have ever owned. Spend the bit extra and get something decent.
