Peugeot 407 never had these tyres before, fwd very poor wet grip compared to the previous Davanti tyres I used, actually thought they must have been overinflated at first, felt like driving on ice when driving in the wet, swapped them front to back as I had pirelli on the rear.
Better options out there for the £ imo.

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 Peugeot 407Hdi drivers say
The most recent owner reviews from this car, in their own words.
Replaced front tyres with these, still early days, less than 1000 miles done. Immediately noticeable is a softer sidewall, so not so good on limit unless pressures are slightly above recommended; tendency to tramline; definitely noisier than the Falken ZIEX 914 eco run they replace, didn't think 2 decibel would be so obvious. Wet driving is tentative too say the least, not too sure just yet maybe need to bed in a little. But for a tyre at half the cost, the overall performance isn't half as good, certainly better than that. Time will tell whether a further set will follow.
I have had them for 51.000km (31K miles) as my front tires of my Peugeot 407 2.0. I was a bit worried initially because I lost 2mm too quickly to my taste but then the deterioration stabilized and I had a good driving experience in all conditions (particularly with rain). After 51K kms the tires are
Replaced the tyres my Peugeot 407 came with to these. These are definitely the best tyres I have ever had in the past five years, they wear very well and are extremely durable. Very responsive and solid to drive.
Decent tyres. Recently bought new set for 2011 toyota avensis. Tested these tyres on my Peugeot 407. Very good price/quality ratio. Not too much difference comparing with premium brands. Dry grip could be a bit better, but that's not a big problem as we are using it during winter period. Hit few big potholes, no damage to the tire at all. Recommended product!
I'm really happy with the grip on these tyres, bought 4 new ones, been driving them for a while now, today was raining and I was deliberately breaking hard on wet road and no skidding at all. They are quiter than my last ones Continental Sportcontact 3
For the price range class, they are defenitely good buy.

I had pirellis prior and can't fault them . I drive mostly in town but have drove a couple of long motorway journeys in all condition and find them great . Quitter than the pirellis grip good in wet and dry will definitely buy again .
Diabolical. Rubber cracked between the treads after covering 11k in 10 months.
They've become so noisy I had my mechanic check for wheel bearing failure.

Bought 4 new Kumho KU31SPT W for my Peugeot 407 HDi SV wagon 16 months ago. They were good while they lasted. After 14 months & 23000 Kms 2 tyres failed on a highway trip, with another going a couple of weeks later. All still well legal (good 30% tread left) . Yep, loved driving on 'em, but I expected a bit more life from 'em.
These tyres are what they should be:- reasonable wearing, good value, predictable, quieter than Pirelli P6's - all in all a good compromise.
I'll get a new set when these wear down. The fact that I don't even think about them when I'm overtaking at speed (during a fleeting return to my youth) says a lot.
