What are the best tyres for Fiesta petrol 1.4?

Post by Graphite »

Anyone seen any reviews or tests for best tyres to suit the Fiesta Mk7 1.4 petrol?

Would be useful to get an idea - the original Hankooks look quite worn after 9500 miles - esp on outer edges of fronts. 4 mm on one and 5 mm on other - but look worse :snooty:

My Scooby gets 15k before tyres need replacing I thought that was bad! LOL :mrgreen:

I've got UniRoyal RainSport 2s - 195/45/16

I'm soo impressed.. Have had them a few months so can't comment on wear but all the reviews I've read are great and they're very reasonable

Just replaced the Fiesta's tyres... Ended up getting a good deal on 4 Goodyear Efficient Grip :roll: (LOL what a name) from one of our local garages £322.88 and Goodyear were doing a £40 fuel voucher by return with 4 tyres purchased - haven't seen anything of that though - posted about 3 weeks ago... :?

I'm a big fan of the Rainsport 2's also - had no end of other premium brands over the years but the Uniroyals seems to give the best all round performance and wear Vs price, brilliant tyres!
