Avon ZZ3 225-45-17- Ford rs mk2 1,000 miles November 21, 2011
really really shocking! if you have a focus rs mk2 think twice about buying these tires. i found them to be very bad in the wet with little or no feedback from them what so ever. the car has allmost slided out on more than one occasion. they aquaplane at the drop of hat. all this on roads that i allways drive every day and have never had prob with any other car or tires. even my wife has noticed the lack of traction when shes been out. seems ok in the dry but dont trust them so has spoilt my drive a bit....

Where this data comes from

Every rating on this page was submitted by a driver through the review form on this site, naming the car, the tire, the size and the distance covered. Reviews are checked by hand before publication, and the page rebuilds automatically as new ones arrive.

About the TR Score

The Tire Reviews Score rates each tire out of 10 using independent test results and the full body of owner reviews, so you can check a car-specific ranking against the wider evidence.

Who does the testing

Every test published as a Tire Reviews test is run by Jonathan Benson, who has been testing tires independently since 2007.
