Mazda Mazda3 MPS Aero
(225/45 R17) on
a combination of roads
for 18,000
spirited miles
had these on the mps since new, they have done 27k miles which i think is pretty good, but after this time one had started to degrade quite badly and the metal band was showing and the tyre grip was lifting. i was glad to get them off the car. the ride in comparison to their replacements (goodyear asymmetric 2's) was very harsh, spine shatteringly stiff over bumps, they would follow the lines in the road, when pushed though, they would perform well, but would understeer on corners and roundabouts. overall i would class them at a hard/harsh tyre, non compliant, uncomfortable, and most definitely not to be bought, unless thats what you are looking for.
