Habilead SportMax S2000 Owner Reviews

Review this tire

What owners say summarised from 13 reviews

Quiet running and value are the most repeated positives for the Habilead SportMax S2000, and nine of 13 reviews score above 70%. Dry and wet grip are generally liked, with comfort also praised by two drivers. Handling is less settled for a small minority: one owner finds the car unstable in corners, while another describes poor wet handling and slippery dry grip. Later-use experience includes satisfaction after substantial mileage but also an end-of-life account of disappointing wear, so it does not establish consistently long service. These positive everyday impressions therefore come with some individual handling and durability concerns rather than agreement across every owner.

Previously using Goodyear Effigrip 225/45/17 but workshop recommended 215/50/17 for more comfort. Tires were very quiet and comfortable. Dry grip was excellent. Wet performance was not bad either, tried going though puddles at 80kmh and it managed to cut through nicely. Will buy again cause it's super value for money.

Only had these tires for a couple hundred miles so far, dry conditions. Replaced Pirelli tires as I was on a budget after some recent heavy expenses.

Initial are thoughts are good, I was concerned about buying budget as this is the first time I have done so.

Tire noise seems far less than the usual Pirelli I've had on this car (Volvo V60) and the handling has been no issues with it being mainly motorway and countryside driving.

One of the worst tires I have used. Driven gently for three years. Parked in covered lots when not in use. Wear was like it’s gonna breakdown anytime if I did not see. My previous Yokohama was like a gun at the end of 3 years. Buy it only if you are Penny wise don’t care about safety.

I had these on the rear when I bought the car. Tried them on the front during service rotation. Felt very slippy even on the dry. Wet handling is quite poor. The tire has developed some cracks on the shoulder- Manufacturing date: 4218, less than 2 years old. Lot of thread remain however. approx 5mm.

Honestly I like the look ,and they drive well with minimum noise,but the only problem I had was within a year I filled a complaint with the supplier that they are tearing fast even though I do only 40 to 50 kilometers a day from home to work, I'm still using them even now .I bought them in june 2017 and I was told that its wear and tear and that it could be how I drive!, but still sad even I really like them so much. I had than 40000 kilometers on them.

Tires handle well on dry and wet conditions in regards to grip, car appears stable and steering response is great, tires are quiet on the road and very comfortable: a very big difference from the Achills ATR sport I inherited with the car.

The only issue so far is a swollen side wall on one of them making it appear that the tires have a weak sidewall just before clocking 1000km.

I will buy again thus far and recommend any other person as well
