Ford Puma Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S given 86% (225-40-19-)
Driving on mostly country roads for 25000 spirited miles
An excellent all round tyre. I have these on both my Ford Puma ST and my Toyota GR Yaris.
I'm surprised by the longevity of the PS4S tyre. I've done 25,000 miles in the Puma and the treads are down to 3.8mm (F) and 4.8mm (R), so still plenty of life left.

Driving on a combination of roads for 5330 average miles
In the summer of 2023, I bought my first performance car (Ford Puma ST Ultimate, 200hp 320Nm). Since I still needed winter tyres, I started looking at all Tyre Reviews' tests to investigate which seemed to be the best choice for me. I was looking for an all-rounder, one that scored above average in all areas. I live in Belgium, so scoring well in wet conditions was a priority. For me, this tyre feels super. Loses practically nothing of its sporty performance, excellent grip when accelerating and cornering.
Due to circumstances, I also drove for a few days in dry and sunny weather (20°C) and even then I was impressed by this tyre. I will repurchase this one immediately!

I had used ug8 before this tyre and semperit is better than goodyear. I have been using all type of condition on winter and warm weathers, handling is always very good. Price of tyre is very good. I strongly recommend this tyre for everyone.

Writing about the Uniroyal RainSport 3 given 79% (195-50-15-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 13000 spirited miles
Tyre are gone on the inside, the Pumas tend to do this sooooo no big surprise there but they were only good for 1 year something like 20000-25000 km's, surprisingly good in the wet, hardly any scare with this tyres on in the dry they were also good but not great
Overall a good tyre but keep in mind that it is a very very heavy wear prone tyre.
Would buy again simply because for my car's tyre size I either go semi-slick or there really isn't a much better tyre than this one

Driving on a combination of roads for 3000 spirited miles
Just bought a second set of two tyres for the front on my Puma, had them on the back since january and no problem what so ever, did about 8k km's and it shows minimal wear tossed out a set of continental ContiPremiumContact 2 that were really worn out and the tyres feel brilliant.

Writing about the Toyo T1R given 50% (195-45-16-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 2000 spirited miles
Do not buy them ! My nearly bolt yokohamas parada s2 gave me much more confident and safe ride than new toyos ! Very poor for fast cornering, but in wet condition really dangerous. Buying them was the big mistake.

Driving on a combination of roads for 20000 spirited miles
These tyres suit the Puma very well and give almost as much grip in the wet as in the dry! The only negative point is road noise and personally that doesn't bother me. I would always stick with these for my Puma.

Writing about the Nankang NS2 given 40% (205-50-17-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 4000 spirited miles
I had a set of these on my fiesta 1.25 with no dramas whatsoever so when it came to upgrading my Pume, I expected the same. Boy was I disapointed. These are plain lethal in the wet and average in the dry. The ride was filling shakeing and jarring. At one stage at 30mph on a bend, I hit a small rut and the tyre came off the rim and dam nearly killed me.
Changed to Toyo Proxes and they were fantastic

AVOID

I submitted a reveiw 2010-03-31 .After reading others had good results with these tyres, I thought something must be wrong with my set up.Turned out the gauge on the airline at the garage I normally use was pressurising 4 psi higher than indicated.Grip on par with C drives once pressures adjusted.
