Infinity INF 05 Reviews - Page 6

Given 36% while driving a Peugeot 307 (205/50 R17) on mostly country roads for 2,000 average miles
Terrible tires. Just passable in dry but give little feedback and are very noisy (they sound like a failed wheel bearing) In the wet they are just dangerous with no feedback at all and giving a feeling of being on ice.
AVOID

Given 40% while driving a Saab Automobile 9 3 Vector Sport Sportwagon (150) (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 5,000 average miles
These were fitted new by the dealer on the purchase of my used Saab 9-3 and are abysmal. In the wet you are little more than a passenger with massive understeer with little warning of your impending trouble from the front. How I avoided an accident is one of life's mysteries. Dry grip is fine but in this country this is hardly important. One plus is that they wore very well but this is probably as they are likely made of concrete.

Absolutely useless in anything but bone dry conditions. The slightest bit of moisture or grease on the road and you can find yourself struggling to keep the rear behind the bonnet. With Uniroyal rainsport on the front and these on the rear you end up pivoting round the front axel. These were on the car when I bought it and as they had loads of tread didn't bother replacing. Just swapped to Dunlop winter 4d now it's getting cold and the Infinitys will not be makinge a reappearance next year. In short like most others have stated don't buy these tires, they're cheap for a reason.

Positively dangerous in the cold or wet - these tires should be banned

Poor wet grip let these down. Definitely in the "economy" pile and not "performance" as claimed by the manufacturer.

I was very pleased with both the wet and dry performance of this tire. Not bad at all.
