Excellent tires, wet grip is good but improves as the tire wears, with near silent road running in my Mercedes E220 Estate. Dry grip is great for a touring tire and is as good is more expensive premium brands. A great tire!

Great tire again form Avon, good feeling in the wet, and grips well on wet greasy roundabouts. No problems.

Driven around a thousand miles on these ZV7s and absolutely love 'em. I know it's only a VW High Up! but grip is great in both wet and dry and equal or better than the Contis it came with. The big difference is how quiet they are, can't really comment about wear as it's such a light car and not a huge mileage. Recommend.

Had these on now for 6000+ miles and no issues, don't even look worn yet.
Would buy them again with out thinking about it.

Transforms a very good CLK into a true sports car.
The bad thing about putting up a good report is the more people wants to buy them the more it costs to buy but given these tires are only £60-70 front and rears fitted they are a bargain.
Not many reviews on the go but have driven over 2 million miles and I wont buy any other brand now, last tires were conti contacts they were good but not in this class in the wet they grip so well much better than the contacts,in the dry about the same.
CLK has very good TC but since I have had these since August 16 the TC has not come on once which I thought it was BROKEN.
They are near silient in day to day running but this depends on car model.
Not had snow yet but spoke to one of their reps who stated AVON wanted these to be the best winter, summer tire on the market, we will see!
In 5000 miles not had much wear to be honest I think 30,000 should be easy at current rate and getting around 2mpg more than the very good contacts so average upto 39-42mpg at 65mph average.
Got to be the best value tire on the market, think they are the best I have ever had no matter what price I have paid in the past.

Very good grip in the dry and wet. Quiet tire ( certainly better than previous continentals and goodyears.) I can't comment on how good at the limit as not been there, also wear rate will get updated after a few thousand miles. A point to note: the rim protection is really non existent so if you have convexed alloys be aware. For the price I can't get a better tire they really are good and mine were made in England!! So long as the wear is acceptable I will definitely buy them again.

Great tires. I drive to the limit and these inspire confidence. Especially in the wet. Ive had several makes. Very soft Yokohamas were my favourite. These are really good tires. So maybe not super sporty but a great all rounder. The grip is impressive especially in the wet. My car was skitish and had very poor grip before but now is planted. I would say they inspire confidence.
Only negative would be they seem to roll around a bit on the motorway and i find myself correcting the steering a fair anount. Apart from this I am very happy with them. The ride and comfort is nice, which you want most of the time, and when i put my foot down they respond admirably. I would probably regret buying a different tire so will stick to these.. Great for the price.. Fuel econemy. Cant really coment as not had them that long but maybe a few less miles to the gallon. Although i have been flooring it quite a bit!!

Great dry grip in any direction! Wet grip is excellent when starting and stopping; they do slide a bit when pushed to the limits although you do have to push it very hard!
The ride is smooth at all speeds although this does limit the feedback you get for them.
Overall they are fantastic value and they definitely keep up with tires over twice the price.

Replaced some noisy F1s with these ZV7s and am really pleased with them. Only done 500 miles on them so far but they are quiet and offer plenty of dry grip. It's not rained this last week so can't comment on wet grip. Others have made positive comments.. Would buy again for the rear of the car when the Hankooks wear out.

Second set of these and for all round performance probably the best tire you can buy for the money on 18 inch rims!
I am also impressed with the wear 9k in I'm about halfway though!
