Sunew YS618 Reviews - Page 5

Given 80% while driving a Alfa Romeo 166 2.5 24V (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 5,000 spirited miles
these replaced Pirelli P6000's on my V6 alfa 166. my driving style is quite brisk but generally very smooth, so i'm quite easy on tyres, but other than a fairly quick wear rate on the fronts these tyres have been absolutely head and shoulders above the Pirelli's. The tread pattern looks good, and they performed well in dry wet and even snowy conditions. They seem to suit the Alfa Romeo perfectly. Recommended if you don't do that many miles.

Given 93% while driving a Honda Accord (225/50 R17) on mostly motorways for 1 average miles
Just put 1,600 miles of highway driving (55 to 75 mph)on a new set of these tires.
Went from sunny south Florida to the Smokey Mountains in North Carolina and back. Including about 15 miles of mountain driving with some snow on the ground. Of course, I drove carefully.

These tires replaced the original Pirellies that came with my 2008 Honda Accord ( size 225/50 17).
I am very, very happy the way these Sunews perform: Quiet (this Accord has a noisy cabin ), breaking, cornering. etc. Not one complaint about them.

I thought These tyres were fantastic for the money paid for them. i bought my front wheel drive car with all round Goodyear tyres all ready fitted ( brand new car ), and it was time to give the girl a new pair of souls for her shoes. I found that they weren't as sticky but to be honest they did last a lot longer and i did take it into account so i could modify my style of driving, but seriously, i didn't even notice the difference. I still get great traction, awesome cornering ( considering the vectra is very well known for it ability to udersteer ) and Phenomenal braking! I would buy these again in a heart beat, its time to stick it to the large manufacturers and send them a message, It's rubber, Be it natural or synthetic, and the prices they charge should reflect that.

Given 29% while driving a BMW 320D (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 4,000 average miles
I bought these tyres a couple of months ago, and since then i have regretted every time i have taken my car out. I have no confidence on the roads while braking or on a roundabout, and since my car is a rear wheel, it now has half the horse power it used to have because of half the traction. Most of the time the tyres just spin.
These tyres have only one thing going for them and that is they are around 76 pounds a pair from ebay. For that money you get, no road comfort, ultra poor handling in wet, huge amount of noise, and since the tyres are not evenly balanced pretty poor drive experience.
If you still want to save money and go for them it is your choice but you have been warned.

Dont worry about buying these tires. I fitted them to my Alfa GT JTD and wnet from dunlops that were 150 each these are 60 and i must say jsut as good! Road noise might be a bit louder but thats because i turned the stereo off and actually listened for it. I must say around corners very very good!

Given 90% while driving a BMW E46 3 Series (225/45 R18 W) on a combination of roads for 500 average miles
Changed the front pair from worn nexen to these Sunew and am happy so far, bit noisier but I suppose thats what you have with new tread.
I'd say my driving is average, not boy-racer and not driving Miss Daisy either, its rained for the past couple of days and I've not lost grip yet, pushed them abit around corners and considering they are new they feel pretty good, so far. Paid just shy of ?100 fitted for the pair.
