Given 69% while driving a Skoda Superb MK3 (2015 Present) (235/45 R18) on a combination of roads for 40,000 average miles

Driven for about 4 seasons and 60000 km/ 38000 miles. Wear was ok. Grip on wet and dry road was “not great, not terrible”

Given 81% while driving a Mercedes Benz C320 (205/55 R16 V) on a combination of roads for 700 easy going miles

Bought it brand new, XL version, 94V. Price/quality is perfect. Mine are made in Italy. They are quiet, handle well and wear is reasonable. I drive them for 1000km now and would buy them again, for such price it is a bargain.

After continental eco contact tires, felt no any difference. Good handling and braking. No any ESP light on dashboard.

Given 91% while driving a Renault Renault Megane III Estate 1.5dci (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 10,000 average miles

After 10000miles tires are really good on dry/ wet roads. I don't find a reason to buy more expensive tires. My previews: Michelin primacy3

Given 37% while driving a Vauxhall Astra 1.7 CDTI (225/50 R17) on a combination of roads for 12,500 easy going miles

I bought a Opel/Vauxhall Astra J with brand new Deyton Touring 2 tires. I have driven them for 12500 miles, mostly on highway and regional roads, and they were dead after 12,5k miles. From the day 1 they had quite a bad grip in wet, and and slipped over the side walls easily in two occasions when I drove a bit faster than usual. After 10 000km they become noisy on highway. Definitely not buying them again.

Given 64% while driving a Ford Fiesta mk7 (180/65 R14) on mostly country roads for 25,000 easy going miles

I have that Tire for abt 3 years / 25000 klm abt . With a ford Fiesta 1.4 80 hp normal driver but some times i drive also in offroad conditions just as slow as possible..
In wert condition i found tires to slip very easy special while stop and try to start in steep grade road. for summer conditions here in Greece that usually with have temp 32 C and asphalt temp abt 40-45 its ok.. or to use between March to September). However when winter & rain season come then .. gripping become dangerous to road..

Given 60% while driving a Honda Jazz (175/65 R15 T) on a combination of roads for 1,500 easy going miles

Bought two new ones to put up front on my Honda Jazz 2009. Reasonably quiet and easy going, nothing special overall but have never let me down so far, this is the second season I am using them. Will probably buy something else next time, but overall satisfied for what I paid for them.

Given 84% while driving a Mazda CX 3 (245/45 R18 W) on mostly town for 3,000 average miles

Feels very much same as did previous Continentals. Light weight and good handling. Slightly over steering feel on sharp curves.

Given 100% while driving a Ford Fiesta mk7 (195/50 R15 H) on a combination of roads for 700 average miles

Verry good tires, I have them for a year now, the wear is good, the grip and handling is also good for my car (ford fiesta 2010)
All in all the tires are excelent for their price.
