I saved £800 by having these Pace Alventi tyres fitted to my Kia EV6 GT 3 months ago and instantly noticed a difference. The Michelin PS4 EV tyres would skip on full lock and feel awful, would understeer pulling into junctions and spin up and lurch the car all over the road on traffic light drag races. I've only driven in wet winter conditions on these so can't comment on dry conditions. So far I am very impressed with Pace, even putting down 575 hp they feel great with minimal tyre slip and so far grip far better then the Michelins did. The only negative I've got is they have slightly more road noise, and that is only because they are not EV rated. They have the same speed and load ratings, better range and wet grip ratings just no foam inside to absorb the road noise. Lets see what they are like on dry summer days, but for winter I'll definitely buy again.

Fitment comes from each tyre's manufactured size list, and the sizes are the ones drivers reported when they reviewed. Check the size, load index and speed rating on your own doorplate before buying - a size a previous owner ran is not always the size your car left the factory on.

What Kia Motors EV6 GT drivers say
The most recent owner reviews from this car, in their own words.
Found handling very poor especially in the wet, compared to continental premium 6 that the car came with from the factory. They wore down about twice as fast as the contis, so we will be going back to conti tyres.
Something wrong with handling. The road shoul be ideal for these tyres.
Out of four of these on a KIA EV6 with road noise suppression foam, three have failed at 16000 miles, resultant vibration makes the vehicle undriveable above 35 mph. They have got to be changed now at significant cost, stuck to main brand tyres and avoid these at all costs. KIA were being cheap using these on a £52000 vehicle.
My tire dealer recommended this tire for my KIA EV6 GT because I noticed severe sawtooth wear on the original Michelin Pilot Sport after 25,000 km. However, for a sporty car, this tire is a total failure. A little more pressure on the accelerator and it squeals! In corners, and especially in wet conditions, you feel considerably less secure than with sport tires. If you want to use your car's horsepower every now and then, you should steer clear of these.
