I am on my second set of the enduro 916 plus 235/45 r17, my first set lasted 3years and still had tread left was really suprised how well they worn. The tread patern looks great and haddles well in the wet. For the price it is definitely worth considering.
I purchase my car 5 months ago and these tires had been fitted by the previous owner. Now with the Clio V6 being rwd and being known for being tail happy in especially in the wet I was apprehensive with winter fast approaching. I have however been very surprised, the tires grip far better than I'd expected, even in the wet.

Considering these are a cheap budget tire they are very good tires I get about 4 years out of these on hard driving which is about 40k, I have a 1993 RWD Toyota MR2 Turbo and I have these in 215 40 on a 17" rim, I'm currently on the second set on the rear and they have served me well, as with any rear wheel drive car they are a nightmare in the wet and snow on conventional summer tires so I opted for these some years ago as they were Mud and Snow so I thought I would see how well they fared against the truly awful seriously slippery summer tires I had on before, my conclusion is this...WOW! I can now take my motor out in the Snow and they grip the hills like it was summer time, this year was the worst snow I'd ever seen and I thought I would be pushing it taking a RWD sports car in these conditions but it muscled it's way though like a 4x4 and plus wet weather performance is also great too with no back end snaps, I'm coming up to a tire change on the back which will be the 3rd set so I will order these in and again fit them my self, the only down side to these is the noise level, they are quite noisy in the summer when it's warm but then again with this tread pattern it's going to be but in the winter they are silent due to the colder temps.

I JUST BOUGHT A SET OF THE ENDURO 916 PLUS FOR MY BMW 3 SERIES AND IM SUPER HAPPY WITH THEM. I CAN FEEL THE RIDE IS SOFTER FEEL WITH A GREAT GRIP OF THE ROAD. I DONT HEAR THE NOISE FROM THE TIRES AND THE PRICES IS GREAT. YOU CAN
Very pleased for the money, these perform at least as well as the Goodyear NCTs that were fitted when I bought the car.
The Omega is very sensitive to chassis settings, which take time to get right. My car has Police spec shocks and springs with polybushes front and rear, making for a slightly firm ride.I use the car as a taxi, running with full load tire pressures.
The Runways are a bit noisy on a dry road owing to quite an aggressive tread. The upside of this is that they perform well in heavy rain and snow.
I find these tire well matched to a properly set up Omega chassis and also my driving style. I will continue to fit them as long as they are available.

I had these tires on for a day. To be honest, I'm an old fart and didn't really believe that tire choice made that much difference. How wrong I was. In a BMW 530d, it was impossible to get going without the traction control lighting up, the back end of the car was skating on ice and felt frankly dangerous. Straight back to fitters - returned these and refitted my old tires with 2mm tread left. Felt 100% better straight way. They've ordered me a decent tire and will fit next week. Avoid avoid avoid.
I put these budget tires on the back of a Ford thinking they wouldn't be any trouble just hauling them around. After about eighteen months and approx 10k the MOT inspector said to be aware they were going out of shape. I went back to the supplier who also agreed but was not prepared to do anything about it as they woere not that bad. I continued to use them but the noise level from them started to increase significantly. Like others it left me considering that the wheel bearings were on the way out. Thinking it may be worse due to amplification from the estate configuration of the C Max and prior to another MOT I switched them to the front with around 16k on them. I honestly could not stand the noise and vibration at any thing above 30mph. I changed them out shortly afterwards still with a good 50% wear on them. The noise level from these tires was unbelievable and probably the last pair of directionals I would ever buy because of this bad experience. My new suppliers/fitters confirmed this can be a common complaint with some directionals. On the front the grip was still reasonable in the dry but fell away dramatically in the wet. Thank goodness they have gone and I now have Dunlops asymmetrics all round and a much happier car.
Was sold these tires as quality midrange,have to say they are the worst set of tires i have ever used,the cabin noise between 40 and 50 MPH is horrendous sounds like wheel bearings are shot.plenty of grip on dry roads but very poor on cold wet ones,having recently gone sideways round a roundabout at quite low speed decided that for safety they had to go replaced with avon ZV5s,car has been transformed, do not buy|
On the car when I bought it - Astonishing - Turanza ER300 on the rear and Enduro on the front .- Had seen the budget tire choice on buying the car but obviously fitted after the decision to sell . Absolutely horrific road noise - sluggish road / cornering response .
Have suffered for 700 miles and will be changing immediately .
