The Roadstone Eurovis Sport 04 is generally liked for dry and wet grip, value and quiet running, with 48 of 66 written reviews positive and an average score of 72.9%. Dry handling and comfort also attract much more praise than criticism. Wet-grip complaints are a minority, five critical comments against 27 favorable, so they do not represent the typical account. Tread life is less settled, with 15 positive comments but eight complaints, roughly one in eight reviews, including shorter life in end-of-life accounts. Repeat reviewers show no consistent decline in satisfaction, with some scores falling and others stable or improving.

At first these seemed okay, during the long, hot summer spell we have just had, I was only using them on dry roads to begin with, so eagerly awaited the heavens to open. Twice I have now driven in the rain recently and they are absolute garbage when it is wet. Understeer, no grip, spinning when pulling off from a roundabout under normal driving and traction control light on a lot. A shame as in the dry they are respectable for a good value tire. Unfortunately the lack of control in the wet is the final nail in the coffin for me and I am looking at getting something else.
The most impressive feature of these tires was that they lasted 40,000kms (25,000miles).
During this 40,000kms I abused them at the race track. And crossed a twisty mountain range hard and fast at least once a week.
This was all on NZ roads too. Which are far more harsh than British roads and mostly cheap chip seal, off camber and poorly maintained.
While the tires don't give much feedback I think they are perfect for a commuter or tourer.
I went to replace them with the same tires and unfortunately they didn't have my size at the time. Went to some Laufenn Z LK03 (don't exist on this site). While these were far better in feel they were no better grip in the wet or dry. However these only lasted 25,000kms on the same roads. I have just replaced the rears back to the Roadstones.

I have an Astra J SRi Sports tourer 1.6cdti 110bhp, its driven slow and careful to save costs, averaging 20k per year, long trips, commutes and the usual door to door. I thought I'd try these as they were almost half the price at £200 from ebay, then £40 to fit by my local tire place. They are literally half the tire, they aren't as grippy. especially in the wet and after less than 2 years they started to crack between the treads. The front pair were replaced after less than 15k miles (The original Continental ContiEcoContact 5 did over 30k before needing replacing) and the rear pair are still on after 30k (again the originals did over 60k) but they will be replaced soon as there's still cracks between the treads. Moral of the story buy cheap you buy twice but I appreciate that a lot of people won't have £500 to fork out on tires for what is an average car
Good value for money. Had pirelli tires on before. Exceeded my expectations for the price, decent overall performance and mine currently has about 60% tread left after 25000km driven.
I've been using Roadstar 245x40x18 97W Eurovis SPT 4 tires on Audi 3.0L A5 Quattro for over 6 years now and haven't been tempted to try any other tire as these really do the business, great handling in both Wet & Dry and the wear is great, which isn't bad for a car with over 320 bhp and both front and rear tires lasting around 25k miles and when I need to replace them there are always some good deal around.

Bought the tires as the fitment center was running an all inclusive special for 4 brand new tires.
we went on the long road that weekend and the grip the tires had cornering at 140km/h was astonishing and this is only 15inch tires.
id definitely buy them again actually looking at fitting my wife's suv with their at tires
Went from Bridgestones to these, was literally day and night. Dry grip far superior, wet grip definitely noticeably better. Handling amazing and significantly less road noise.
I decided on these based on the reviews and the fact that nexen are involved with the production of this brand.
Have around 10,000kms on them so far and not half worn om the front, about half worn on the back (only the inside edge due to camber mostly). so wear seems good
Had these mounted on EVO X. I had them on for my daily commute but also tested them out on track a couple of times where they were pretty good, considering they are not designed for track use. On track they lacked a touch in grip, braking and cornering. But on the road they are very good, for a daily drive, they are comfortable in absorbing bums, quiet and seem to last very good. Decent in the wet too.
Now for the best bit for these tires, which are essentially NEXEN rebrands, is the price.
255/35/19 for £69 quid a corner, yes please!
To get anywhere near this lvl of performance, you would have to spend £100++
Had 8 pairs of these now, but wont buy again, last year had my Fiesta set (4No) changed as end of life, and bought another 4 to replace them, but brother in law who's a tire fitter advised that they were all cracking, despite being only 18 months or so old. Just had wheels on my wifes Cmax refurbished and noticed that the oldest 2 tires also have cracks in the groves, these have been on the car for only a year and were off the car for 4 months during the winter, so not impressed. Also the latest set on front of the Fiesta are proving impossible to balance (been done 3 times now) and have only been fitted to the car for 3 months. Wear rate seams high as well. I do a lot of motorway miles but only got 16000 out of the 4 sets. On CMAX will be buying Lassa Driveways Sport again ( as soon as UK stock available) as a lot better tire in my opinion

I frequently travel a 350 km highway, and honestly I felt more grip than michelin crossing the Sierra in the rain, it feels safe they don't make noise. You just have to make sure they have the right air pressure so as not to damage it with potholes.
Bought these to go on a 2.2tdci mondeo and they're great for the price. Car is a daily user with no issues in the wet and very queit tires. Will use again.
