Given 27% while driving a Mazda MX5 (195/50 R15 V) on a combination of roads for 2,000 spirited miles
I got these on the rear when I bought my MX5-NB, but overall ride is superbumpy, unpredictable, sideways into third gear on wet and they feel sketchy. With still enough thread on them, I am replacing them with Michelin Pilotsport 3, as I want my girlfriend to also be alle to drive the car without ending up in a ditch.

Given 91% while driving a Nissan Juke (225/45 R17) on for 500 miles
I tried two on the front of my SUV and was so impressed I put two more on the back. I had a reputable brand on before and the difference was surprising. The drive was immediately quieter and smoother. I cornered sharply on some of my normal routes and the car stuck to the road in silence where my old tyres would howl at me. Wet weather too they perform very well. Most impressed and happy.

Brilliant low cost tyres. Cheap does not always mean nasty. Not sure what drugs half of these reviewers are on. Onto my second set after 51000 trouble free kms on my last lot. Great grip and driver feedback. Keep your alignments and rotations done every 10.000 and these tyres last the distance! Pretty low noise on most surfaces too.

We found HIFLY tyres for our Hyundai I 10 very good buy as we do a lot of mileage. We are both retired and travel all over. Had Khumo before but could not afford them.We are very happy with our HIFLY HF 201 tyres.

Given 14% while driving a Saab Automobile 9 5 Aero Wagon (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 2,000 average miles
These tyres are nothing short of deadly. Had to replace after 2000 miles as they were far too dangerous. Wet and dry handling left major control problems. Almost spun on a roundabout. Tyre squeel when general cornering which is totally unacceptable. Horrendous road noise to the point I had to shout to passengers to hear them, and I'm not joking! The loud humming noise and drone left me fatigued. Swapped them out for Uniroyal Rainsport. Unbelievable difference. Quiet, loads of grip. If I could give these abhorrent tyres a minus 10 I would.

Given 37% while driving a Hyundai i40 sedan (205/60 R16 V) on a combination of roads for 8,000 average miles
Fitted these tyres to my vehicle as I was intending to replace it soon, the Hankook tyres that were fitted were coming to the end of their usable life. As I had not intend keeping the car much longer I did not want to spend to much on tyres, this was a huge mistake compared to the original fitment tyres the Hifly H201's were awful they were compromised in all areas of driving both in the Dry and the Wet, I live in the valleys of south wales where we get more than our fair share of rain if there was anymore than a light shower I lost all confidence the tyres were dangerous in wet conditions especially under braking taking considerably more distance to stop than the Hankook I cannot find any redeeming qualities to these tyres and although very cheap they are a false economy. Also they appeared to be wearing much quicker.

Very good tyre for my kind of driving.... a mixture of town and motorway,,, about 12000 miles per annum. good in wet and dry conditions and very smooth with little road noise... have 10000 miles on them and they show about half worn... they are very well priced and would buy again at the price...

Given 76% while driving a Vauxhall (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 16,000 average miles
These tyres were fitted by the dealer when I bought the car three years ago to get it through its MOT Test. I've driven it for 16000 miles and have just replaced them with 2.5 mm tread (my limit) left. It has been a mix of motorway and town driving and I don't consider my driving style to be "progressive", "sporty" or "lunatic".
16000 miles on a heavy front wheel drive car seems reasonable to me from a cheap tyre. No wheel spin when accelerating hard from a standstill into traffic (don't drop the clutch and just floor the accelerator pedal).
Never had any exciting moments of aquaplaning but then very few people do (if you are Aqua planing you have no control over direction until the tyre bites of its own accord or you run out of water)
Just replaced with a pair of Avon ZV5's and the biggest difference is the reduction of road noise.
Would I buy them again? If I couldn't afford the extra £20 for Avons - yes. But because I can I won't.

Given 20% while driving a Acura TL TYPE S (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 18,000 easy going miles
This is hands down the worst tire I've ever used. After getting the car newly aligned I had a set of these installed. They lasted only 18k miles and were the most noisy tire ive ever used. They were down right dangerous driving in any wet conditions, no group at all!. Terrible.. never again.
