Top 3 Semperit Speed Grip 3 Reviews

Given 88% while driving a Ford Focus MK3 (205/55 R16) on mostly town for 22,000 average miles
The tires are great. They were bought in 2018. And in 2024 they are still in very good condition.
I recommend them over Hankook

The only thing good: really low consumption. I have a liter per 100km less than my summer Bridgestone Potenza consumption. And less noise. Very happy with that. Negative: you have to be extra carefull on dry,departing from standing a little sportier it triggers the Esp,very little grip on braking,understeer in a tight curve and totally scary on wet roads. But if you drive carefully and keep distance to the car in front is ok and is a predictable tire,even its performances are not top. I drive them the third winter on a front wheel Seat Leon with only 150bhp. I don’t recomand on a more powerfull car. But the fuel consumption is fenomenally low.

First season with them. Had on previous cars past generations of this tyre. Was very satisfied by them especially Speed Grip 2. Now, last winter, with Speed Grip 3 had the oportunity to go twice to the mountains. Over 1000 m there was snow on the road, 5-10 cm, car went with no problem uphill. The only problem was when you try to move from 0 km/h in ramp, but that's because of the car, RWD. When I wanted to change tyres at the end of March, movement restrictions were aplied, so I changed them one week ago. They perform well also at +20 C, at emergency brake they are a little soft.

I bought the tires after some of your encouraging tests and I was amazed.
They excel above all on wet ground (they have a few thousand km) in comfort, rolling resistance ; on dry give a good feedback and lose grip progressively without surprises. They are my first winter tires on a sport car so I don't know how much the merit is of the tires and how much of the trim by Peugeot Sport!
