On-Road All-Terrain All Season

Avon AX7 Owner Reviews

Review this tire

What owners say summarised from 17 reviews

Avon AX7 owners are generally pleased with its balance of road comfort and traction on tracks, gravel and other loose surfaces. Off-road ability is the most frequent positive, followed by comfort, generally low noise and value. Later-use accounts include good wear, and one owner who reviewed it again remained satisfied after further road and track mileage. Heavy-rain experience is mixed, with aquaplaning concerns alongside favorable accounts, while some drivers report less confidence in wet corners. Snow reports also vary, so the positive mixed-surface feedback should not be read as consistent approval in every winter condition.

I have a few mm left till they are done but will change them out because they are getting slippery in rain. When it comes to aquaplaning they are the best I’ve ever driven but sadly they have a tendency of not really gripping some sorts of tarmac, harder and coarser in roundabouts, when wet. This has happened lately and since they have been used for almost three summers I guess it’s age. Still very comfortable and quite silent on Swedish roads

Watch out for roundabouts when it's wet. Nothing like my old Michelin Latitude Cross.

I’ve drive 1000km a week and put these on six weeks ago. They are behaving very well on bad and better roads. Grass and gravel is a pleasure. The only weakness I have found is that they are more prone to aquaplaning than normal road bias tires. Not that they are dangerous but but you have to lower your speed in heavy rain. They are rather soft so comfort and sound is top notch but they need a little bit more air to stabilise the sidewalls for a more spirited drive. Will buy again

Just a fantastic all-rounder. Quiet on the motorway, grippy off road, great manners on road. And a bargain too.

I wish I found these sooner. Totally transformed my Touareg, the ride is far more comfortable, they grip well on and off road too. Will definitely buy these again, and reasonable cost too!

Ran these on my xc70 for 18k. They replaced some road biased Michelins. First positive was how quiet they were on the road, and secondly the grip both in the wet and dry always inspired confidence. They also had some mild off road use and they performed reasonably well. Both on and off road they provided a very comfortable ride. I found that they were quite sensitive in very wet conditions and i would take care to avoid aquaplaning. Despite their mud and snow rating I would only rate them average in snow, and they're not confidence inspiring on ice. They have worn very well, with roughly half of the useable tread left. Overall very quiet and great handling road tire with reasonable off road capability offering long life, but not so great in wintery conditions.

When I bought them for my amarok I was given the wrong tire size (my fault wanted 65’s but typed 60’s) anyway they are a great tire to be perfectly honest I’d buy them again but the right size ! These tires have driven 5000miles a month and they have never let me down but did get a puncture on site but other than that perfect

I haven't had chance to test them in the snow or ice, however in the cold/rain they grip well enough for the price. very progressive feel, with plenty of feedback, and again decent enough grip concidering the price. only thing is they are wearing slightly quicker than i would expect, and they are slightly noiser - especially when it's cold.

I have never felt the need to leave a review for a tire before, but these Avon AX7's are quite amazing! I have done 15,000 miles on them now and they are wearing vey well. For a tire designed as an AT they are very good performers on dry country roads. They are attached to a 2013 Kia Sportage 4X4 180hp which is no sports car but these Avons are way better than the summer tires they replaced when pushed hard. Obviously they roll quite a bit on hard corners as the sidewall is so large but you get used to it quite quickly. Off road they are fantastic! the Sportage without these tires in the mud is as useful as a chocolate teapot! but with these its actually quite good and has surprised quite a few people! Snow driving is also excellent, very controllable and easy to use, hill starts in snow had no slippage even when 4x4 left to auto mode. Thet also seem to fill and fit the wheel arches better and give what is essentially quite a dull car a bit more of a purposeful look. Will be buying again 100%.
