Ford Focus MK2 1.6TDCI 2008 2011 Tire Review Highlights
Fitted tires based off reviews form this site. They exceeded my expectations, so much so I have also fitted them to my partner car also. Excellent ware (39,000km and still 1mm to ware bar), good dependable wet and dry handling, very good in colder temperature, Great in the snow (the little we get in Ireland)
Would recommend to anybody

Let me briefly summarize. Continental Premium Contact 7 wasn't out when I bought it and there was 6. If the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 is expensive and overrated like me, I would definitely say get the Cpc6. I'm very happy that I didn't pay that much for Mps4 and got on with my life with Cpc6. I realized that it was a very appropriate decision by experiencing it under all conditions and weather conditions. My next tires will be 99.99% Cpc7.

First of all, I would like to express that I am satisfied with the Lassa Snoways 4 series, which I have been using for 2 seasons. The wear rate is less than I expected, yet it is around 10-15%. I did 16000km in 2 seasons. In terms of where I live, it did not upset me once in the harsh and harsh winter conditions. Of course, my vehicle has a great effect on this, but the tires surprised me. It greeted me as a tire that has successfully managed to climb even on hard snow with a bottom of about 30 cm. My vehicle is front-wheel drive and even though I had a sinking problem, it was able to oscillate without skidding too much. I provided a rating, but if I were to give an average score, I would say 10/8 by adding price/performance. Their patterns work well at keeping snow. When the vehicle tends to slip, the tires do not directly stop holding onto the road. If you are a driver who knows how to drive in winter conditions, Lassa Snoways 4 is quite enough for you. If we were to consider 3 tires in the form of Bridgestone Blizzak LM-005 / Dunlop Winter Sport 5/GoodYear UltraGrip Performance+, I would place them somewhere between them in a certain ratio for all conditions. In other words, it is not bad enough to be at the bottom of these, except for road noise, it is not in a position to be the best among them, so it is close to the ideals, neither at the bottom nor at the top. 2nd in some subjects and 3rd in some subjects.

I am very pleased about the Michelin tires Alpin 6. Although there was not a lot of snow this year, they performed very well on the snowy days. I bought them at https://www.autobanden-prijsvechter.nl/ and payed a very good price. So i`m very pleased with these tires.

Some info beforehand: bought them for ~290 EUR for all 4 corners. 205 55 R16 on a Focus 2 estate. I live in Romania and temperatures range and have ranged from -10 to 35+ C. I've done more than 12K kms on them. Tread is at 7 from 8 mm. Bought December 2020. Haven't rotated them yet.
I've previously had: Bridgestone Turanza T001 / Michelin Primacy 3 for summer and Kumho iCept RS2 for winter
By no means am I a racing driver or anything so with the city and occasional out of the city driving that I do, they've done well for me.
Here's my take:
The good:
- Fuel economy. Getting a better average overall than my summer + winter ones combined;
- The fact that one doesn't have to change them every single time so you can say you're always ready if the bad weather suddenly appears; which in these weird times has happened... it can be an issue;
- Road noise and comfort is decent, can't say I've felt any difference compared to either previous summer or winter tires.
- Personally, I found aquaplaning almost non-existent even at 80 kph.
The not-so-good:
- Grip sometimes in the dry is so and so. Car feels a bit wobbly, so I try not to take turns too vigorously. Smooth and steady/
- Dry braking, to be honest, is a bit tricky sometimes thus I try a more defensive driving approach. Obviously, I wouldn't count on them as much as a regular summer tire. Maybe, if one lives in a more hot environment, a Crossclimate is the better choice.
- They do squeak when taking tight turns at low speed in the dry / warmer temps
- They also squeak when on certain zebra crossing or when leaving the lights more enthusiastically. Again during the summer time when temps are 30 and beyond
Would I buy again? Absolutely.

Farroad 225/40r18 tires I bought are great I had Michelin pilot 4 before these and they were crap in comparison farroad handle miles better in wet and dry conditions and last longer to I drive a lot of country roads and hit a fair few pot holes and tires hold up fine my Michelins on the other hand would blister on the side walls and become dangerous ide buy farroad again infact I'm online ordering more now ðŸ˜

They were 30% cheaper than any premium tire and FOR THEIR PRICE they were really good, and wear is a strong feat, as well as dry grip and road feedback and prediction. Wet handling is ok, but would advise caution. Climate is mostly hot here in Greece, so their weak point, wet handling and braking doesn't appear much. Comfort is ok. Recommended for budget solution. Was driving them 30.000 Km in the city and about 20.000 Km Country roads, almost always to their limits. Depends on the driver, but I was really pleased with these tires.

I didn't feel rubber grips the road on dry roads but on wet road it make me feel secure. I have been using these tires for 35K km. I think over 30K km, I need a new tire set.
