Brilliant tires - Accelera Iota ST68 - 285/35/R22.
I have had many vehicles over the years and many tires such as - Goodyear Eagle Ventura & Eagle F1 & GT5, Pirelli P6000 & PZero’s, Vredestein Sessanta & Cento, Falken FK451, 452 & Asensis, Khumo Ecsta Le Sport KU39's etc etc so I know my tires!!
These Accelera Iota ST68's (a full set of four) replaced the Falken Asesnis on my Audi Q7. The difference is like night to day! Simply brilliant and they have transformed the car at a saving of £66 per corner compared to the Falkens. Job done!
Ride was choppy and noisy with the Falkens....now gone. My tires are on 22" so I will always expect noise as they are 35 profile but these Accelera will blow away any other tire. I have today just hit massive standing water doing 65mph and not a flicker.....straight through. Can't comment on tire wear yet but that doesn't bother me as I will replace like for like anyway and the Falkens only gave me 9,000 miles on the front and were down to 2.5mm!
The car is almost 2.5 Tonnes and 3.0TDI Quattro so has a whack of torque and demands a lot from tires……especially when you stuff it into sport mode and paddle shift……sweet!!!
No snow yet so can't comment. Dry grip excellent, so is wet grip, noise is almost non existent, ride handling excellent and fuel economy.........it's a Q7 so is thirsty regardless of tires!
So I give these 100%. Brilliant!
