I replaced my Hankook ventus prime 3 with these Toyo tires. Dry performance is much better, less understeering, more direct handling, maybe a bit better braking. However, the wet performance is worse, especially during aquaplaning, when the car felt more unstable, compared to the Hankook.

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.

The most recent owner reviews from this car, in their own words.
I replaced my Hankook ventus prime 3 with these Toyo tires. Dry performance is much better, less understeering, more direct handling, maybe a bit better braking. However, the wet performance is worse, especially during aquaplaning, when the car felt more unstable, compared to the Hankook.
These was the cheapest tires for my car, and due the good Michelin reputation I´m trying a pair on my VW Polo front wheels. The aspect is somewhat wierd when on my rins. I use Michelins pilot sport on the back wheels and they are totally differet. The Syneris are taller and narrow when compared to Michelins. The confort is very good and it is silet, but the lateral walls are very weak, despiste it has an awesome rim protector. I tryed only for a 100 km, but is slightly understeerer on dry. On the rain its very good. It looks like a decent tire for the price. Structure is poor and its slightely tall, so your car can gain some height. Due the soft side wall it wont change direction as fast as a Michelin, but its confotable, grippy and cheap. Not so bad at all.
If you like your tyres to give you confidence and the grip when when you need it, or you just like getting your foot in, avoid these tyres. They are rubbish.
I have got then on the front of my VW Polo GT Pd130 with a remap and I am looking forward to getting them off as soon as I can.
