BMW 316 Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Cordiant Cordiant Comfort given 51% (205-55-16-)
Driving on mostly motorways for 15000 spirited miles
Bought them when I was low on funds. Good grip on dry and wet roads for the price, but the ride comfort was non-existant and I could feel every tiny imperfection in the asphalt. The rears were absolutely shredded at the end of second year, which is not good considering they were made the same year I bought them.

Everything is ok, handling is good, wet and dry grip is not bad but the noise is unbelievable!! very very very noisy tire. if you drive in town, it may not be a problem but in motorways you cant hear the music sound in the car.

Driving on a combination of roads for 2500 spirited miles
The tyre handles well in wet conditions. Even slightly bigger puddles don't create problems. When I first time drove with these tyres on the motorway i was surprised how silent they were compared to my previous tires or my father's tyres. The tyres make ride quite comfortable even when running stiffer springs. They are very good tyres considering that they are 3rd cheapest tyre that the tyre store sold for my tyre size.

Writing about the Hankook Kinergy 4S given 49% (205-55-16-)
Driving on mostly town for 4500 easy going miles
We used the previous generation of these tyres the H730 and unfortunately these are a great disappointment. My wife and I have both been sliding on greasy roads - in a 90bhp bmw!! - when the previous set didn't do this even when they were nearly done - so far this set has 4500miles. I honestly won't be buying the h740s again back to the h730s if I can get them.

I had these tyres fitted this weekend, but my new Infinity tyres feel better than my old Uniroyals.

Driving on mostly motorways for 30000 spirited miles
These tyres are excellent. The grip is very good in dry and excellent in wet roads. The traction control seems to be unnecessary. They are a lot more comfortable than the previous Continental PremiumContacts that I had on the same car. The grip is similar if not better. They wear very slowly and currently after 30000miles, they have still thread for at least 10000 more. Excellent choice.
