Davanti DX640 Owner Reviews

Review this tire

What owners say summarised from 100 reviews

The Davanti DX640 receives mostly favorable owner reviews, with quiet running, dry grip and ride comfort the clearest positives. Wet grip attracts more praise than criticism, though around one in seven reviews raises concerns, so confidence in rain is far from unanimous. Value is another recurring strength, while tread life divides opinion, with roughly one in six reviews reporting disappointing wear alongside accounts of long service. A smaller group, around one in sixteen, describes instability at speed. Mid-life and end-of-life reports also include some loss of wet grip as the tread wears, although this is a minority experience.

Tire dealer suggested these some years ago for Insignia SRi 2.0 CDti. I drive 15k miles per year, mainly motorway with smattering of A roads. The tires have performed well to date in all conditions, particularly in torrential rain at motorway speeds. The only time they lost grip was last year in heavy frost, when cornering around a 90 degree bend at 10 - 15mph. Though, I suspect most tires would have lost grip in those conditions and colleagues told me they had done the same with different cars and tires.No issues up to now and I would recommend them.

I have just fitted all four tires on my peugeot 308. Very very comfort and quiet. The road feedback is excellent as the continental. Gripping is good either in dry or wet road . The amazing is the rolling resistance - acceleration, steering, and gliding get Large improvements. I feel that my car becomes another different car which is easier to drive.

Just swapped a full set of Bridgestone potenza re050 for these tires on my 640d and am really impressed, they have transformed the car, really quiet, superb wet and dry grip and have taken the harshness out of the ride, would definitely buy again.

Now completed just over 10,000 miles in e220cdi. Live close to a55 and speeds are often between 50 and 70. Front tire are now just below 70ml and the rears at 6.4. So will expect 30,000 miles off them. Comfort has been very good with road noise levels reduced dramatically against my Continentals (these gave me almost 30k too) So, with the more favorable cost I shall use again unless wear suddenly increases!!

These tires came fitted to the car when we bought it, all 4 brand new had been fitted by the garage before we collected car.

I was concerned as I had never heard of the brand but did not want to replace brand new tires so thought I would give them a go.

tires were ok at first dry and wet grip were reasonable although not amazing. But after a few months the tires went downhill fast, dry grip became no better than average and wet grip was downright dangerous.

Front wheels spin up when pulling away from junctions even in the dry and handling at any speed over 40mph is poor. In the wet the tires are just plain dangerous, front wheels spin up and send the traction control crazy even on the slightest use of the throttle and the car aquaplains at speed regularly, it's like trying to drive on ice.

After 2 almost accidents due to aquaplaining and the car being completely out of control in the wet the tires were removed as I considered them dangerous, fronts still had around 5mm of tread rears around 7mm. They were replaced with Goodyear Eagle F1 asymmetric 3 tires all round and these tires even after 6 months of spirited driving are still providing excellent grip in both dry and wet, just shows how bad the davanti tires really are.

Worst tires I have ever had fitted to a car, average at best in dry and dangerous in the wet. Do not buy.

Was really looking for a summer tire to get me through the upcoming MOT. Davanti were a new one on me but the local tire shop raved about them, and the price was very good. I was well impressed with the grip levels in the dry and wet. I have to say having chosen the likes of Falken a few years back on another Alfa, I was expecting similar budget to mid-range tires to be just OK, but the Davanti's have really surprised me. I'm a little bit perplexed by an earlier review by another Mito owner with the same tire size, saying they feel like they're coated in lard ... I have no idea what was going on with his car, cos nothing could be further from the truth on mine! Reserving judgement on long term use as I've only done around 5K so far. One minor issue, the rim protection is a bit weak. The wife scraped a curb recently (grr) and the rim protection just sliced away like cheese - no protection at all it seems ... sigh!

Bought them with scepticism but turns out this tires are the best spent money on my car. I am impressed with the low noise and grip (glued to the road). When searching for new tires I looked for soft tires that will make my ride comfortable and these tires do. I recommend them if you are looking for soft and quite tires

So far I don't really have any complaints. Incredibly quiet tires for the performance you get out of them. Stick like glue to the road wet or dry.
Sure you can force them loose if you're throw them in expecting racing slick grip levels but that says more about the driver than it does the tire itself in my opinion.
Would definitely recommend especially if you're on a budget.
Not been driving on them long enough to see how they wear so I'll have to see as time progresses.

Put these on in place of Pirelli as they didn't even last a year and the car was all of the show when there was even the site of a rain cloud. A friend had them on his A4 and rated them. I'm well impressed with them, had bridgestone and Pirelli on the car since I bought it and these are the best so far. Pirelli were a massive waste of money. For the price I'd recommend will get another set
