great value for money

Not durable. Worn close to legal limit after 20000 miles (10000 miles on front axle and 10000 miles on rear axle) of day-to-day driving within 2 years. Better stick with mid range tires.

Worst tire ive ever owned. Worn significantly after 5000km. Traction control light comes on constantly with them under the mildest steering. Do not buy these

I'v been using Chinese tires before. For example Triangle ones (drove 3 seasons, then sold the car and probably new owners is still using those).
But Firemax - never again.

A good cheap tire that will stick well in dry conditions once up to temperature. Doesn't shed water like a Michelin PS4 but you do realize this is a Firemax tire. An excellent tire if you need a set to last for a while without paying a Frenchman's mortgage. Adjust expectations accordingly.

I was in a bit of a problem with cash needed to get some tires for mot. local tire company said these were high end of budget range. these are terrible tires i would never buy them again. slides in wet very low traction they squeal in dry conditions even at low speed around a roundabout but grip is ok wearing fast done about 3000 miles i would guess about 1/3 down on front. i drive a 1.0 ford focus so not a very fast car and can really tell these are poor on it. paid £280 for 4 tires which isn't a lot and yes they are budget but should have paid a few more quid and got a mid range tire.

Overall not to good. Slides in the wet it’s the worst budget tire I ever had. Mileage 6000 , dry fair. I do 30000 miles a year most Tiers I get 25000 to 26000 out of a Tiers. Working out the price. I would need 4 tiers to do the at least to do my 25000 two tiers that’s a cost £580 . Would be better to buy tow top of the range one. And save money cost £300. Do not buy is what I say.

Not worth the money perished after one year .

Thought I would try a set of cheap budgets on my car and ended up with these. They are a terrible tire. Traction control light would start flashing on my car when it never used to - that is in the dry too. Didn't even need to try particularly hard in order for it to happen! Bear in mind I drive a petrol Toyota Avensis, which is not exactly a powerful car. Do not buy these. If you do need to buy budgets because you are low on cash, there are better brands to get than these.
