Given 67% while driving a Ford Focus (195/60 R15) on a combination of roads for 2,400 average miles
Ive got these on all 4 wheels for my W reg Ford Focus and ive not had a problem with them at all and they have been on the car for about 2 months now on about 2400 miles. I do about 40 mile round trip each day with a mixture of country lanes, dual caridge ways and straight roads. With these tyres im able to got fast round the corners in the dry and I also trust them under braking in both dry and wet conditions. In wet conditions though I dont trust any tyre and only stupid people would go high speed round corners so when people say that these tyres are no good in the wet must be going hell to leather. All in all I would say a good tyre

Given 10% while driving a Vauxhall Astra VXR (235/35 R19 W) on a combination of roads for 650 average miles
Bought the car (second hand) and these came fitted to it. On the drive home I nearly lost the front end and nearly ended up in the nearest ditch, I'm an advanced driver and these are by far the WORST tyres I have ever had on a vehicle. They wheel spin even when your gunning it, the traction control light was on constantly on amongst other things.

I have since replaced all 4 tyres with Toyo T-1 Sports and surprise surprise the traction control light is not on and I can now drive without worrying about ending up in the nearest ditch!!!

MARAGHONI = DITCH FINDERS!!!!

Given 33% while driving a Citroën berlingo (185/65 R15 V) on mostly country roads for 3,500 average miles
Fitted to my Berlingo Multispace, front wheels only, bouncy, loose feeling, can wheelspin these with no effort (no grip). Done 3500 miles country driving 3.5 mm left so 7k looks max on these cheese rubbers, Very noisy and the anti lock is always stepping in on quite mild/medium braking, cant think of a single good thing to say about them except Kwik Rip must be making a packet on these hoops. I paid £140 for a pair cant wait to get rid and get some Michelin Hi Energy's. Junk.

Given 21% while driving a Ford Focus (205/55 R16) on a combination of roads for 10 spirited miles
I hated these tyres right from the start. I never thought I would be pleased to say they only did 10,000 miles but I'm glad to be rid of them. They don't corner well in either wet or dry and the whole time they were on I never felt quite in total control of the stearing. Perhaps for motorists who drive in a straight line all the time these might be a good tyre but for anyone who has to do a variety of driving I would steer clear!

expensive tyres, not worth their money, only had them a year done 10.000 miles and they`re worn out (down to 2mm), i can quite honestly say i won`t be buying anymore of thes tyres again :^(( VERY OVER PRICED, NOT VALUE FOR MONEY AT ALL.

Given 69% while driving a Citroën C4 Grand Picasso (215/50 R17 W) on mostly town for 12,000 average miles
Have these no my Citroen Grand Picasso , bought these as on a budget and a cheaper alternative. After around 8 of these only managed to get approx 12,000 per tyres and that was with swopping back to front once front started to wear to prolong the average life span. Although the price of these mid range tyres have started to creep high at the well known chain of tyre and exhaust centres which stock these so now maybe not such great vaule seeing that they only last for less than 12,000 miles

Given 50% while driving a Volkswagen Golf Mk4 1.9 GTTDi (205/40 R17 W) on mostly country roads for 400 spirited miles
The tyres are good in the dry, round some sharp bends I've done speeds that my Khumo's couldn't cope with. I can't imagine the wear is very good on them as they must be quite soft - I got them with the alloys I recently bought.

Will be swapping them for Falkens as the ride comfort is unbearable! I know they're low profile and stretched but this is crazy!

Given 60% while driving a Volkswagen Golf 1.9 Tdi (195/65 R15 H) on mostly country roads for 5,000 spirited miles
Came fitted on my used golf tdi with lots of tread, fitted lowering springs and uprated shocks with fully uprated bush kit. Cars handling improved 80%, corning around roundabouts was unreal even in wet conditions, Treads wore down very very quickly within 2 weeks!! no tread at all, the side walls are super stiff, comfort if very crashy over bumps, might make an ideal budget track day tyre. changed to Uniroyal rain expert which are terrible round corners with very thin sidwalls..

Bought two tyres for my mondeo and without doubt they are the worst tyres I have ever fitted to any car. After 3500 miles they are shot. Dreadful wear , dreadful road handling stay well clear of and spend your money on real tyres

Given 24% while driving a Hyundai Coupe 2.0L (225/45 R17) on mostly town for 8,000 average miles
Really poor tyre - had them on the front of a Hyundai Coupe 2.0 and have just replaced them because they were illegal after only 8000 miles. I have driven mostly short journeys, bur still, 8000 miles? I think they are a very poor tyre that are awful value for money. My advice: DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME WITH MARANGONI
