215/55 17 Tyre Review Highlights
Falken Ziez ZE950 AS rated 89% while driving a Toyota Camry

Driving on a combination of roads for 53 average miles
My wife and I love these tires! The most positive attributes are the smooth ride, very low road noise, handling and value for what you pay. There is really only one area I would love to see increase and that would be a higher mileage warranty, but then as we all know, that will reflect lower handling. Overall, these are the best tires we have owned and are ready to purchase our next set of Falken 960's. Just remember, the tire is the most important part of your vehicle, as it is the ONLY part of the vehicle that touches the road.
Kenda Emera A1 rated 84% while driving a Suzuki SX4 Scross 1.4T Boosterjet

These are VERY good tyres, with supreme comfort and grip. As good for grip as my Continental EcoContact 6, but with more ride comfort. Quiet and quite a soft compound, with good handling. Because these prioritise comfort, road feedback is not quite as good as the Continentals, but it makes for a safe, relaxing drive. I will actively choose these for both my cars again. Excellent.
Vredestein Ultrac rated 92% while driving a Toyota Avensis Wagon D4D 2.2

I have been driving with these tires for 4 years and I am relatively satisfied. I have never lost control in turns with them. There has been a side water at 80 km/h but I have not lost control (I mean the laws of physics, though). Braking is also good. I could say that they are not noisy. The price with qualities compared to the premium models is good. The only thing I do not like is that they do not have very good traction when starting at higher speeds.
Hankook OPTIMO K415 rated 100% while driving a Nissan Maxima ST

Used in A33 Maxima FWD for almost 100k kms on NZ roads. Excellent in both wet and dry conditions. Used a family car and never had any issues driving in heavy rain. Not driven in snow. Never had any issues and no uneven wear as well. Got wheel alignment and balancing done when all 4 tyres were changed and it lasted almost 100,000kms. Highly recommend.
Accelera PHI rated 77% while driving a Toyota 2017 Geely Emgrand GT

Recently fitted 4 of these tyres and these are incredibly quiet, above average grip in wet and dry (we had a short spell of rain recently and the car was perfectly stable). These replaced a set of Continental's i had on previously and I'd say the Accelera's are a bargain for what you get.
Bridgestone Weather Control A005 rated 66% while driving a Suzuki Vitara 2015>

Driving on mostly country roads for 8000 easy going miles
Bought these tyres as wanted something more robust to resist stone punctures that I was getting regularly with Conti Ecocontact 6s. Solved the puncture issue and they have better grip in the wet than the Contis, but the wear is terrible. 8000 miles and they are on the legal limit, what the hell! That is pure winter trye territory tbh. Poor overall.
Hankook iON FlexClimate rated 97% while driving a Kia Motors Niro

Replaces my Vredestein Quatrac Pro tyres on my electric car.
Pro:
> The Hankooks have significantly more grip. Since installing them, I have never seen the traction control light on my dash pop up. Gives a lot of confidence driving in the worst of weathers, including snow.
>Significantly quiter. I tested with my iphone a drop of about 3-4db in the cabin on the same stretch of road compared to the vredestein.
Con:
>Range is 5-6%lower than what I was getting on the Vredestein.

Cracked tires before 10.000 kms. Normal use. Normal acceleration, normal braking , except some unexpected events.

Having researched these tyres before purchasing I seems sumitomo is one of the world’s major manufacturers owners of many of the top brands inc Goodyear ECT apparently highly regarded in Japan after one trip to Portugal and two to spain crossing France I can’t fault them would Definitely buy again.
Pirelli Cinturato P7 C2 rated 90% while driving a Skoda Octavia

after reading reviews bought these to replace horrible factory fitted goodyear efficient grip which made a hollow, humming ringing noise on most road surfaces. What a transformation. The Octavia is now as quiet as the previous passat I traded in. They are also wearing well (about 1mm per 9000km ) so I hope they keep making these as I'm not risking any other brand while I own this car !

Driving on a combination of roads for 5000 spirited miles
the fitment of 215/55 17 is for my 2015 Chev Cruze diesel (purchased new ). This vehicle came with Firestone tyres ( l forget what model they were) and they without a doubt the worst tyres l have ever experienced, not only in traction and ride comfort but they had a slight flat spot which l could not rectify as a result of which a swapped them out for Goodyear tripletred assurance tyres. The Goodyears were fine but l never really fell in love with them and when l saw the Michelin cross-climate l had to try them. All l can say is yes they are expensive but nothing even comes close and the Cruze feels like a different vehicle, to say the least bravo Michelin.........gri
