Fiat 500 Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Aoteli P607 given 46% (195-45-16-)
Driving on mostly country roads for 20000 average miles
Only buy these tyres if you can get them very cheap, high road noise, okay feedback, average dry grip for a budget but dangerous in the wet. Colder the weather the worse the grip too, can slip and slide all over the place on wet greasy roads.

I fitted a full set of these and ran them down to 2mm of tread, by that point they were slashed and heavily degraded when compared to a premium tyre. My mot tester said 3 of the 4 tyres had dangerous imperfections in sidewall when he was changing them.

Only good points, lasted well for a budget in terms of tread longevity and seemed to have good aqua plain resistance even below 3mm of tread depth.

Would not buy again unless compound has been updated.

Writing about the Nexen N Blue HD Plus given 27% (185-55-15-)
Driving on mostly town for 10000 easy going miles
Grip in both wet and dry seem acceptable but significant cracking on tyre shoulder is a real worry. Tyres have a date code that suggest they are 3.5 years old. They have covered about 10k miles and have about 4mm tread remaining. The cracks appear deep and are between and on top of the tread blocks on the outer shoulders only. I haven’t claimed on the Nexen warranty because I don’t want Nexens again.

Writing about the Pirelli Cinturato P1 Verde given 80% (175-65-14-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 800 spirited miles
Very comfortable drive, though a little louder than my previous Goodyear tyres. The grip when cornering in wet and dry conditions is great, and so far the ABS hasn't kicked in at any point. Driving in ice has so far been fine, and I've had no problems with wheel spin as I have previously in deep mud with the Goodyear's. For a city car these tyres are brilliant, and keep up with the Fiat 500's sporty little engine. I can rather spiritedly whip around corners and keep absolute control of the vehicle in no small part due to these tyres. I haven't really noticed a difference in fuel economy as of yet. Driving on main roads, I feel I have a much smoother ride than I had previously. I can't say for long term use as of yet, but I'd definitely buy again if they stand the test of time. It's a tyre that feels like it's made for the Fiat 500.

Writing about the Falken Sincera SN110 Ecorun given 91% (175-65-14-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 3000 average miles
Bought a full set of these tyres to replace an all legal mixture of 2 x Joyride 1x Bridgestone and 1 x Giti tyres on my 17 Yr old granddaughters 1st car, a fiat 500. I drove back in driving rain over winding Pennine roads. The wet grip is excellent, comfort and handling so much better than anticipated and fuel consumption has improved. I’m happy with the improved safety from these tyres for an inexperienced driver. 3 months on and almost 3000 completed, no sign of wear, but only time will tell. Granddaughter commented that the car stops a lot quicker and she can drive round bends faster than before (not a good sign). I’d originally decided to purchase Toyo Nanoenergy 3 tyres, but for a similar price I bought these because of the A rated wet grip. Surprisingly in tests, mid range tyres on small rims perform better than premium tyres. Will definitely buy again and recommended them to a relative with Honda Civic.

Writing about the Kleber Quadraxer 2 given 88% (195-45-16-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 5000 average miles
I used these tires on a Fiat 500, with a 16 inch rim (195/45). Good economic, progressive and sincere tires. They don't have the same dry grip and response as a summer tire, but they still defend very well. Astounding silence and comfort. Always safe in all conditions, good even at high speeds.

Writing about the Blacklion BH15 given 50% (185-55-15-)
Driving on mostly town for 3000 spirited miles
These came installed on a 2015 Fiat 500e I bought in April 2021. They are fine in the dry with good grip. They are quiet and smooth riding. Wet roads are another story as the 500e spins them easily. I drove fewer than 3000 miles during Spring and Summer. With the return of regular rain I tossed the front tires due to the poor wet grip.

Writing about the Bridgestone Weather Control A005 given 62% (225-45-17-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 10000 average miles
bought the A005 as they were the only summer bias all season tires available for the size I needed at the time. While they have done an amazing job for 15k km in 2 years, with good dry and very good wet grip, also in cold conditions, they have become extremely noisy in the past few months. When driven on the highway at 110 kph or more the rolling noise is really present. Considering changing them for this reason alone, despite they still have plenty of thread left and they are still performing pretty well overall. Really disappointed with Bridgestone this time... maybe this is the reason why the A005 Evo already Wear at 15k km is acceptable, with a front to rear swap they could last another 20k km, but consider this is on a very light fiat 500

Writing about the GT Radial FE1 City given 100% (175-65-14-T)
Driving on mostly town for 3000 average miles
Bought 4 on offer to replace a mix matched set on a new car. Instantly reduced road noise and decent feel in the bends. For a small city car these are perfect and 3,000 miles has barely made a dent in the front tyre tread. Compared with previous Chinese brands, these seem a cut above.

Writing about the Autogrip Grip 500 given 66% (205-55-16-)
Driving on mostly country roads for 3000 average miles
Have no issues certainly none that equate with the two reviews listed here as fitted to an Octavia vrs or Fiat Bravo. Are they the best tyres out there? Absolutely not. But they are perfectly acceptable considering their price point. I have never felt in any danger either cornering, braking or accelerating in either the dry or the wet.

Writing about the Pirelli Cinturato P1 Verde given 84% (185-55-15-H)
Driving on mostly town for 3 average miles
Great city driving, easy going tire. For a small work commuter as Fiat 500, even with its revy engine it performs splendidly. Great stability and grip on highways, low-noise, low-rolling resistance. It's definitely worth trying. In comparison to Michelin Energy Saver, Pirelli offers more grip and confidence with literally no drawbacks for a much better price. Even pushed hard in corners it loses grip in a predictable manner which is surprising having in mind it is ordinary touring tire. I’m simply stunned they remain so unknown, with so few OEM approvals but even better for a user, maybe that is why Pirelli can offer it with a much better price than the premium competitors.
