Alfa Romeo Brera Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Maxxis Victra Sport 5 given 81% (235-45-18-)
Driving on mostly motorways for 14000 average miles
Had these for approx 14K miles having done one swap front-rear to ensure balanced wear. I drive usually on motorways and having done a big trip across Europe (from the UK to Greece and back), i really love them. This is the 3rd set of 4 tyres since i got the car and the best so far. On dry tarmac they stick like a train and on wet surfaces after having some hard breaking, they perform well and confidently. I have never had any issues regarding my confidence on them. So in summary i would say that: + Dry, wet handling and braking, no problem with aquaplaning. Good treadware (over 300). Their performance is consistent since new. - The steering feel lacks a bit of character, but nothing significant, just my thought. Due to the inner side being worn (i have it lowered by 30mm), hence the camber angle creates a faster wear out on the inner side, i have to replace them. I would certainly buy again, but i am going for All season tyres due to my move to Germany in winter.

Writing about the Barum Bravuris 5HM given 54% (225-50-17-W)
Driving on mostly town for 5000 spirited miles
These (front) tires had been worn extensively over a period of just one summer season during which I drove around 8000 km (5000 miles) or even less since I haven't had them on for that whole period. This includes mostly driving in town. They're not worn totally, but to the point that I was suggested to buy another set of front tires for next season. They also told me that I should have rotated them around 10000 km, and were surprised to know that they haven't even reached that. Rear ones are in good shape. Performance is good, but it seems that wear is ridiculous. I do have a heavy foot but nothing too egregious. I need to point out that the car didn't have any mechanical issues and the wear was even on those front tires on my Alfa Romeo Brera 2.2 jts.

Writing about the Barum Bravuris 5HM given 57% (225-50-17-W)
Driving on mostly town for 5000 spirited miles
With mainly gridlock city driving front tires are badly worn after only one summer season and around 8000 km tops (probably less than that but I wasn't paying much attention). I do have a heavy foot, but nothing too egregious. No mechanical issues with the car.

Writing about the Petlas Velox Sport PT741 given 91% (225-50-17-)
Driving on mostly motorways for 25000 average miles
Excellent on dry and very good on wet. Also very quiet and good tyre wear. I did 25 000 km during 2 summers and still plenty of grip

Writing about the Toyo Proxes T1 Sport given 59% (235-45-18-)
Driving on mostly motorways for 5000 average miles
I am really disappointed by the sensitivity to bumps and "channels" on the road. As soon as they enter the "channel" (usually left by frequent trucks' passes) the tyres become uncontrolable... At first I thought it had something to do with the car, but this stopped happening once I mounted the winter Kleber tyres. So evidently, it has something to do with this specific tyre. Hard breaking also often leads close to strong deviation to either side... Nothing that I would expect from Toyo. I will not buy them again

Writing about the Falken Eurowinter HS449 given 87% (225-40-18-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 6 spirited miles
Had these on the Alfa Romeo Brera V6 Q4 since September last year ... in normal conditions they perform well, good in the wet and dry, now we have had some proper winter conditions here in the UK and I have been driving in the snow for the last few days, and I must say they are exemplary... yes the car has 4wd, but a 2wd car in the snow on winters is better than a 4wd on summers in the snow! The grip is very good and confidence inspiring... able to brake down hill on packed snow (car weights 1.8 tons too!) able to climb any hill I'm presented with , generally feel fantastic compared to most of the other people tip toeing around and sliding about.... thoroughly recommended, and a decent price!

Writing about the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 given 57% (245-40-19-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 3000 average miles
This is the second set of 4 Goodyear F1 Assy 2 I have fitted to this car, we also have them (second set) on an Alfa Romeo Brera Spider.
The first set I put on the Brera went 20K miles, great grip and smooth silky quiet, very little road noise, perfect. Naturally I was confident in buying a second set. These 4 tyres are so noisy, a mix of excessive road noise and humming varying on different surfaces, Driving is now very tiring. It will cost a lot but will have to replace them with something else, I just cannot keep them. I have been in touch with Goodyear and they have told me to have the tyres taken off and they will be sent to Germany for testing. A ridiculous suggestion. Goodyear have no tech engineers in the UK! The tyre noise label on tyres is nothing to do with cabin noise, its a drive by rating.

With the level of customer service and lack of care shown I will never ever buy Goodyear again.

Writing about the Altenzo Comforter given 57% (235-40-18-)
Driving on mostly motorways for 1000 average miles
Had these tyres for 20000 on the front for the last 10 months. Mainly do motorway driving, and for this the tyres are fine. Still 3.5mm of tread, and Breras do have a reputation in eating up the front tyres.

Noise and dry grip are adequate

However, would agree with some of the other reviewers that wet grip is below average. Skidded (understeer) recently on a roundabout, at 30mph, in moist conditions is/isnt fun (depending on your outlook!). I'm not sure how much a contributing factor the tread depth was here. First time it happened. On the motorway, no problems with aquaplanning.

When the front need doing, I'm tempted by the price and longevity. Its a toss between getting a premium brand with the grip and running it down to the wire (with its loss of grip over its life) vs Altenzo, which could be replaced twice for the same price; but crucially have more tread on them.

Writing about the Pirelli PZero Nero given 36% (235-40-19-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 3000 spirited miles
Alfa Romeo Brera S 2.2 have these tyres as standard fitment. This is the fourth Alfa that I've had. When I bought my first Alfa in 2002 I was advised never to fit Pirelli tyres and I now know why. The marriage doesn't work. These tram-line terribly, they are one of the worst in the rain that I have experienced and they squirm under heavy breaking. In conclusion, I would never recommend these tyres to anyone.

Writing about the Pirelli PZero Nero given 87% (235-45-18-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 7000 spirited miles
I have always had these on my Brera 2.2 and although they could give more mileage (I like to drive my Alfas as they should be driven)I have never had a problem in the wet or dry. They give me confidence to push on when I want. Surprised at some of the poorer comments when fitted to other cars but maybe they just suit the Brera. Incidentally, they are also fitted to my Alfa 155 and give equal assurance.
