Drivers generally describe the Debica Presto UHP2 as an outstanding value tire, frequently praising its very low road noise, high comfort, and confident everyday grip and braking in both dry and wet conditions-especially when new. Many reviewers also report good high-speed stability and respectable mileage for the price. A smaller but recurring theme is that wet traction (including aquaplaning resistance) can be weaker than premium alternatives and, for some, grip/quietness noticeably deteriorates as the tire ages or wears, with a softer sidewall feel reducing steering feedback for more aggressive driving.

I’ve had those tires for 3 years now on my Mazda rx8, they are excellent for every day drive and spirited driving as well. Very good on dry and really impressive handling, in wet. I’ve also tried a track event, but they got extremely heated from the 3 round of the track. So if you don’t go to track days, then those are the best bang for your buck.
For a budget tire, you can only complain about 1 thing. Wet grip! Although they are on a 530D, they are acceptable but do make the traction control work more on acceleration than premium tires like Goodyear, but that is outeighed by the superb quiet ride. Wear is average and dry grip is fine. Road manners are fine with no tracking and plenty of feedback. Overall, a fine purchase and I'd do it again.

The tires perform exceptionally well for the price. Quiet at speed, good grip under acceleration, cornering and braking. No punctures after hitting cerbs or potholes. Happy with the wear rate. Predictable grip in damp conditions.
However.. my one complaint is that I found these tires aquaplane really badly in standing water. Even when the tires were brand new and had full tread depth, any sign of standing water and the front of the car lost traction. I don't mean driving through a flood, just normal puddles on normal roads during a heavy-ish downpour, anything above 50mph and the car was unsettled. Prior to discovering this, I'd recommended the tires to a friend and he reported the same.

I was looking for brands like Falken but the seller asked me if i want to check on Debica Presto UHP2. After reading comments&reviews, I bought a set around march. So it's a 6 month review.
They were less than half the price of, lets say a Michelin PS4. Super cheap.
It feels so soft, even wallowy sometimes. Considering my car has very stiff suspension and low side profile tires, softness turns into advantage.
It's very quiet indeed.
Improved sidewall protection makes it better. I hit some big potholes and curbs but no bubbling whatsoever.
Feels like a premium product in terms of comfort, noise, grip. Loses out on road feedback and wallowiness.
9/10 recommended.
Car is bmw e60, i replcaced nokian zline tires cause they started to cracking (2 year old tires with around 5k miles) . Im realy happy for those UHP tires, they are much better than those nokians. I would put them in same line as continentals sport contact 4.
Had these on my previous Audi A6, I now have them on my Audi A4.
I know my tires well, I have experienced many tires over years of driving.
I can say this tire has impressive comfort and low noise. Almost silent on my Audi A4 on good roads. The soft compound absorbs the cracks and ridges on the road as if the tire is under inflated even though it’s not.
Dry grip is very high, you won’t ever get anywhere near it under normal driving but if you do the grip loss is not gradual it’s quite snappy.
The wet grip is very commendable considering the price and competition. These tires give confidence to drive through water and rain. They perform better than Barum 3hm from personal experience. Have a look at the wet grip in the tires tests, they beat many similar price tires.
The wear is reasonable it’s not the best it’s not the worst just average.
I would certainly buy them again, strong dry grip, impressive wet grip, rim protection and lastly extremely comfortable.
Ran these on the front of a heavy S350 cdi. Having come from pirelli pzeros i was sceptical, however ive been impressed. They are half the price of the pirellis/other premium tires and perform nearly as well. The only differences are slightly less wet cornering grip, and slightly less feedback.
Wear is the biggest issue on this car, always wearing the front shoulders before the center tread (geometry and pressures correct). These have been no exception but they have lasted as well as any of the previous premium tires we've used, and still have tread to go.
If the new maxxis tires weren't on offer we'd buy again.
I have these on a MK1 TT225. nice and quiet,plenty of grip wet or dry.
Will buy again.You wouldn't know they are a mid range going by the performance alone
Although the number of miles give them a good price/value score, the tire is really insecure near his end. Left tire was broken between his tread and side. Right tire has a bulge in the side. There are a still few millimeters of tread.
I bought this tires after initially installed on
my new car Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance. You can see my earlier review from this spring, when installed the tires. I was amazed by their comfort and excellent grip. But this was valid for new tires. After 5000 km, I started to feel the lost of grip on wet roads and "polished" city roads. After 10000 km, the tires lost their quietness and comfort, extended braking distance. Now 2 - 3 weeks before switching to winter tires and after 18000 km, the tires lost grip on roads colder than 15 degree C. Breaking distance increase dramatically, ABS working like on snow for each more intensive breaking. The tires performance is like 2,5 years old premium tires even older for wet and cold conditions. I'm driving intensively 160 km each day to my work and back. For this tires set I bet on low cost and good results in the reviews. So, I'm glad when add the price, less than half of the price of premium tires. For the next summer have to drive with limitations and more careful, but it was the same in 4-th summer of Goodyear's. I hope the tires will not lose their current performance after a winter in my garage. Because on temperatures above 15 degree C this Debica tires are still better than Goodyears in their 4-th summer! Will I buy it again?! Mmm, not! Will look for midprice class.
