Roadstone Roadian HP Owner Reviews

Review this tire

What owners say summarised from 7 reviews

Road noise is the clearest owner concern with the Roadstone Roadian HP, criticised by four of seven owners against one favorable comment. Three of those complaints come from initial use, so the issue is not described solely as a result of wear. Two owners are positive about grip, while comfort is divided between one positive and one negative account. The only mid-life reviewer reports long service and good wet and dry grip, but that single experience cannot establish typical tread life or ageing. With a 49% average across seven reviews and no repeat-owner updates, the feedback gives firmer grounds for the noise concern than for a broad performance or durability claim.

Omg I have put 4 of these on my land rover and they are so noisy over 50 miles an hour that they give me a headache. Waste of money don’t buy. Give them a slap when you are parked and they make a loud ping noise. Worst tires ever. They look the part but that’s as far as it goes.

I have these tires on my VW T5.1, they were on when I bought it. Considering I`m running 20`s the ride is surprisingly good. Even the North Wales potholes are taken in their stride....most of the time. I`ve had no grip issues so far (not used in snow or ice yet and probably never will). As for road noise....I think some people need better door rubbers as I think they are perfectly fine. I`ve definately had noisier tires on some cars. They seem to be wearing ok too.

Very noisy and you feel everything on the road ( lumps and bumps). These tires were on the car when I bought it so the sooner they wear out the better. Michelin available for similar money. I suppose as a midrange tire they're OK but forget regular motorway work....or turn the radio up!
