Ford Fiesta Mk7.5 Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the RoadX RXMOTION H11 given 39% (195-50-16-)
Driving on mostly country roads for 17000 spirited miles
Important points about these tyres:
1. Wet braking and handling towards the end of life, combined with the increase in aquaplaning activity as they wear low severely hinders progress.
2. This summer compound goes really hard bellow about 5'C.
3. The tyres loose pressure evenly at a rate of about 1psi per month in the beginning and they loose about 1psi per week towards the end.

Tyre wear:
1. At about 12,000 miles, as a result of my driving style, the wear on the NSF tyre shoulder is excessive.
2. At about 15,000 miles, the wet weather handling is progress hindering and the aforementioned shoulder is pretending to be a racing slick.
3. At about 17,000 There is an average of about 3-4mm of wear left and I can not wait to get rid of them.

Other noteworthy things:
1. The tyres loose traction on any amount of progressive throttle input in the lower gears if wet and cold.
2. The tyres hold most tyre dressings very well and they look good.
3. Driving on fresh show is fine, but driving on compacted snow or ice is hopeless, I ended up buying special snow chains to fit my cars low profile wheel arch.
4. They taught me what I need in a tyre, and its an all season, water clearing monster, so I can make maximum safe progress in all conditions.

Personally I will not be fitting them again, but they are cheep and if all you do is plod around town they might be right for you.

Driving on a combination of roads for 500 spirited miles
Bought two of these recently to replace the front tyres on a Fiesta Mk7.5. The price was similar to other midrange tyres and after some miles they are wearing ok. In terms of handling dry grip is good with less understeer than Turanza or Bluresponse tyres. Wet grip is decent, especially over standing water, and steering feel is lighter but more precise than Turanza or Bluresponse. The noise and fuel economy are not noticeably better or worse than other tyres I've used, but the Bluresponse was softer over bumps. Overall a decent midrange tyre you can use everyday with no significant penalties.
