Volkswagen Polo 1.4 16V Sport Tires

This is a very good tire, really nice grip, slightly better in dry. Its also very silent. However, its good attributes least till the first 3.000 km. It cannot be used on extreme situations, such as hot asphalt or when you are carrying some extra load. The wear will be as fast as you will can see, no need of any meter, just take a look before and after a 200 km run. By the way, the load index is NOT real. In fact, the tire carrying capacity is much lower than what index relates. Your wheels and suspension can be dameged, Despiste it has good rim protectors, I would recomend an aspect ratio 45 or higher.
As it is a cheap and grippy tire, I would recomend for an almost disposable use only in lightwheith vehicules and under the following conditions: 1) temperate climate; 2) light vehicule (such as 1000 kg), no load carrying; 3) Aspect ratio 45 or higher, the side walls are tight and hard, despiste this they become dangerously soft when mounted.

now 10.000 km with this tire and minimum wear.thats a big plus. real value for money.
before i had Good Year F1 assy 2 and Dunlop B.sportresponse.
dry grip with these is good, wet is okay. at high speeds the goodyear and dunlops were mutch better.
high speed tight turning and the N'fera tires can't handle it and it feels like its running from the rim. i.ve tried diffenrent pressures from 2.2 bar up to 2.6.

for normal daily driving this is a safe tire for a good price.

One of my favorite car tires ever.

No faults and very good in everything, even better than the previous GoodYear Eagle F1 on the same car in noise, confort and wheel protection.
