Best Tires for the Ford Mondeo Titanium 2.0 TCDI

Deadly dangerous, came on a Mondeo TDCi that I bought. Like almost ZERO grip in the wet, poor grip in dry too with wheel spin fron pull away at junctions

One tire (back left) lost two chunks of rubber on inside and failed NCT because of this, another (front right) delaminated as I drove along

The most DANGEROUS tire I have ever encountered, just ordered four GT Radial Champiros which I've been running since a hesitant experience with them on a Golf GTi that showed me how good they were

BURN the maxtreks for your own safety

Excellent tire for hot/dry, stable at speed, good feedback excellent handling. Not for liw temperatures. Otherwise for summer, heavier/more powerfull vehicles best buy for enthusiastic sporty drivers.

Excellent tire. As a summer tire I normally use them from end of March to mid-November since here in Central Europe we usually have Novembers with no freezing temperatures so a summer tire can perform relatively acceptable down to 7-10 degC. These tires gives confidence and peace of mind, good grip, very good comfort, low noise, short braking distances, very good handling. This November is colder than usual and under 4-5 degC the tire begins to show weaknesses as the compound is getting harder in cold. Noise increases and looses a certain amount of grip that warns you it's time to change. Still, runs safe just you get the feeling of these are not the circumstances the have been designed for.
The only weak point is the wear. Two seasons (20.000+ kms) and more than half of the tread went away. So I expect 30-35 k kms as lifespan. My former Goodyear lasted longer.

These were my first all season tires, I have owned this car for almost 5 years & before these tires i had goodyear asymmetric 5s fitted, which is what i will compare the vectors to.

If you are just a regular driver just doing some normal driving, you cannot tell these are a winter biased all season tire, I will say however going from the asymmetric to the vector, the dry braking is easily the biggest fault, if you need to do some heavier braking in the dry, the tires almost feel like they are gliding over the road surface and you really have to press the pedal, The dry handling is similiar if the tires are cold, they glide over the road instead of griping it. If you have been driving on the tires for a while, example, an hour on the motorway & then have to do some quick B-roads, the tires offer so much more grip. If you like to drive quick often, these tires are probably not the best choice.

In the wet, they are ok on the motorway but do wash out if you take a corner a bit to lively, wet braking is fine though.

We didn't get much snow this year in my area but i know for sure that i wouldn't have made it home on the asymmetrics with the little snow we did get and i can actually reverse up my driveway when there is snow on it. I don't know how they would handle really heavy snow but i'd imagine you'd still make it home.

The biggest thing with these tires though, which is why i'd buy them again is wear, after 1 year & 13500 miles, all four tires still have over 6mm of tread(i rotated them front to back after 9000 miles) normally i'd be shopping for new tires after this mileage but to still have so much useable life left at this point is remarkable.

A good choice, just wish they were a tiny bit better in the dry.

great in both wet & dry quiet, comfortable, affordable would definitly buy again.

One of the worst tires I have ever driven. After 7-8 thousands km start steering wheel vibrations, changed my front tires with Fulda much better. Then my both rear wheels got baloons o the side profile of the tire, of course trow them in the bin. I suggest you not to buy Pirelli Sottozero 3!

have had asymmetric 2-3-5 on this vehicle they just keep getting better premium tire at a reasonable price

Before i left a review for these tires i wanted to have used them for a while. They were fitted in october 2021 and i have covered 12000miles on them. At first, these tires were pretty loud and i thought i'd made a mistake but after around 500 miles they were practically silent compared to the landsail tires my car had fitted when i bought it. During the summer, these tires have been superb, Wet or Dry, the car grips like nothing else and while its not a sporty car i can stick it into corners with confidence. Braking in wet & dry is brilliant. Wear, they are down to 5.5mm all round, i did rotate them front to rear in june or july just to balance out the wear. These are great tires HOWEVER, they do come with a warning for UK drivers who generally use the same tire all year round, these are high performance summer rubber and as such, turn rock solid below 3c, offer zero grip in the snow, understeer in the cold & wet if pushed too hard. Less then 1cm of snow will defeat them on a tiny incline. My car is a 2016 ford mondeo estate 2.0 diesel, remapped at 224bhp and 470nm, very little to no wheelspin if i have to accelerate quickly wet or dry. Would i buy again, 100%

great tire out performs the competition at a cheaper price have used all the goodyear assymetrics over the past 12 years and they keep improving on all models.
