DO NOT BUY - TYRE CRACKS I have had these tires 9months on front and 15months rear (install split due to Covid lockdowns). Both tires have over 7mm of tread depth remaining, but all 4 have radial cracking inside the inner and outer tread grooves. I have covered 4k & 6k miles respectively with these tires. I appreciate these are not premium Michelin / Bridgestone etc, but Avon isn't exactly a budget tire. I have the correct specification tire for my vehicle and always maintain correct pressures. Really disappointed and don't seem to be the first person to experience this issue with Avon ZV7.

I really enjoyed these tires I'm now in my 3rd set in 3 years on 3 cars. Driven on both road and track they last really well giving consistent secure grip in the dry. In the wet they have an initial reluctance to turn for a heart beat but then grip like a limpet. On track they do brilliantly. I drive mainly light weight sub 950kg cars and have never managed to overheat a set. Braking is great sure footed and easy to make adjustments to line while braking in wet and dry. If you can trail brake the zv7 is very rewarding.

Very soft side walls resulting in very poor contact through the steering. Not a good tire for performance cars.

I've had Avon's for over 20 years and been very happy with them. I found this tire site tonight sadly. I wish I had lastnight because others have gone through what I have over the last 18 months. Tires deflating.... It's happened 3-4 times. The last time was 25/01/21. The following day I inflated the tire back up to the correct pressure and thought it was a nail or something. The following day I got out to expect it to be low and it was absolutely fine. However I had two new ones fitted. Then came across this website. Reading some of the reviews on here I can fully understand that in all fairness the sidewalls are cracking and letting the air out....

Decent tires for the money. If you're just using your car for driving around town, they'll be fine. If you do any spirited driving whatsoever, avoid. I had these on the front of my 2015 Ford Fiesta ST and they lasted less than four months. They were fitted by Blackcircles in June and they've now come off this week for a set of Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires. They have a soft compound so they're quite good in the rain but they wear very quickly. Road feedback is okay, they're not the quietest and they're not the cheapest either so I'd pay extra to go with a premium brand. I definitely won't be buying Avons again. I thought I'd be changing these next summer, not this soon. Like I said, for a small hatchback for motorway or town journeys they'll be fine but on a fwd hot hatch you'll struggle to get much life out of these.

Good feel tire but rather noisy. BUT after less than 17,000 mile were told they are perished. They still have loads of grip but all 4 tires have developed a crack between the tread on the whole circumference of each tire. Now have to buy 4 new tires and lodge a compliant, a low drawn out affair which clearly favours the manufacturer and not the customer!

Before I submit, I'm a very hard driver !!! Great dry grip in any direction! Wet grip is excellent, however they do slide a bit when pushed to the limits (Mondeo 2.0 TDCi) ! Excellent cornering. The ride is smooth at all speeds. They do wear out quicker, but the Mondeo is a very heavy front wheel drive car. I had Michelin PS 4, won't be fitting them again.

After putting up with tramlining for years with the continentals that were fitted when I bought the car I read on a website that the avon zv range may help. What a difference these tires have made. It is like driving a different car so relaxing to drive now and goes were you point it and not following every irregularity on the road surface. I have had my bmw z3 nine years now and I wish I had found out a bit sooner.

This is a review after 14,000 miles. Tread depth overall is now just under 4mm but the handling and general feel are nowhere near as good as before. Steering is vague and grip in wet/dry also deteriorated. I'm really disappointed in the way these tires have lasted. Going to replace with Goodyear Asymmetric 5, I won't buy these tires again.

225/45/17 2009 mazda5 2l diesel sport. finding this tire to be be a really good all rounder since fitting 2yrs ago

Good no nonsense package with reasonable DB, good grip and wear. Prices are keen. But, after two replacements under warranty for groove cracks after 4 months and now 12 months later all 4 tires are now cracked in the grooves all the way round, that's it for me and Avon. Since finding the cracks again, have found forum after forum on this matter with Avon. Shame, they are a good tire for standard UK 'roads' Hopefully this will be resolved fairly. I've had really low end budget tires outlast my ownership of previous cars. heard of the same thing with other brands as well.

Made in June 2019 by tire dot code. Fitted end of 2019 within 6 months .all 4 tires have cracks in the tread this is why I checked the manufacturer date Avon are not helpful at all, apparently its a common fault with Avons(google it) It's my sons car which he bought after Uni so I did the dad thing of I thought, put some good A rated in wet tires on. 7000miles and 2mm wear so hoping next year I will change all 4 as don't want any blow outs. Very disappointed
