Protoura sport is amazing and definitely top in UHP! When I compared with my my old pilot sport 4, protoura sport reached another level in UHP and you can treat this as UUHP standard. I check two tires before put them o. The wheels. I found : The sidewall is much stiffer. Tread pattern is design much advanced. Moveable sippings may gain traction on the wet Protoura sport is wider than PS4 noticeable in same size Protoura sport has Better finishing. I can’t wait to have a hard drive, but I still need some busy traffic time before the hill climb. Tires are quite. They absorbs most of the bouncing. Noise level on the label is not fake! I took the first round with tire baking, you can say this is warm up which I did this process in slick tires. The traction is amazing and very similar to semi slick tires. My stage 1 2.0 tsi will just slip once at around 4000rpm the 1st gear when cold. After heat up, the slip gone. You will get full traction in all gears on tarmac now. Steering feel is very sharp in UHP level. Tires scream when u start to over speed or lost traction. Very noticeable! Now, I start to push it really hard. Tires scream louder and louder, they still pointing to the exit of fast corners. That’s really unbelievable! After three runs, the traction starts to decline. I checked the tires surface. They were not over heat. Tread patterns and compound are good. The raise of tire pressure from 32psi to 38 psi leads the lost of grip. I am able to pump 30psi cold as check the sidewall nearly no wear after the 3 hard runs. I thought the special design of sidewall helps. I have many experience for performance tires especially semi slicks like A050, RE71, cup2… I knew what the ultimate level of grip. Protoura sport reach the top level of UHP for sure with bargain price. Now, I know what’s the targe of davanti is : Leading the way. Very true.

I put 4 davanti protoura sport in my bmw 530d im very disappointed after 500km in 110kmh steering start to vibrate and after 130kmh the whole car is shaking! I balanced them in 4 different tires shop but there was no difference.

These tires have ruined my S3, dry grip is at best fair, but it’s when it’s wet where things go pear shaped, these don’t suit my car, no front end grip, terrible under steer even at low speed, no confidence in them at all, remember my car is 4 wheel drive, I was passed by a Transit van around the outside on a large roundabout, only done a 1000 miles on them and there coming off this week, really disappointed

Review your Davanti Protoura Sport >

Bought new wheels and these tires came recommended by the sales guy. Oh what a mistake to make!

Initially I thought they just needed wearing in, now all I see is uselessness.

Dry driving: Absolutely fine for daily town driving but as soon as you push them into corners at speed, hold on and pray! They squeal, they slide and they beg for mercy.

Wet driving: roundabouts at 30mph leave you scared. After driving on Goodyear Asm5’s for two years you really understand what a tire is capable of when made right. These Davantis are just dangerous even at low speeds.

Wear: Can’t say as only covered 2000miles since fitting.

Fuel economy: I’ve noticed a decline in fuel economy when traveling long distance compared to the Goodyears, defo not as good.

Overall: Just a bit rubbish. Thankfully the car only travels light journeys a few times a week, if your a spirited driver like myself and want to get the best out of your car then look for different tires. These are at best a Touring tire for warmer climates.

I put on my seat leon cupra r and they scared everything out of me. Dry is ok but wet i so dangerous that I even thought I will hit the wall once even I was not going too fast in corner like 50-60km/h. Dangerous in rain and not recomended. Will not buy again.

Useless tire if you ask me. Brand new set on a year ago, all of them are almost at the tread limit. When brand new they gripped reasonably well but after maybe a month or two that went out the window. Horrendous in the wet, 30-40mph understeer on bends in a four wheel drive 1 series. Not very comfortable. One thing I will give them though is they can take a hit, I’ve hit some serious potholes in these and heard some brutal sounds when doing so yet the tires have been fine, also never had a puncture, could be luck but I’m notorious for bad luck with nails in tires. Overall though they’ve worn out very fast, don’t grip so well after a thousand or two miles, useless in the wet, not very comfortable and don’t give great road feedback. Disappointed at the lifespan on them if I’m honest.

Vehicle: 2013 Suzuki Swift Sport
Tire Size: 215/45R17
Mods: Rear Anti Sway Bar, Front Strut stabilizer Bar...stock otherwise


Tire noise:

this was a big concern for me as my little princess and wife would be a norm in this car being a daily/weekend warrior, assured by the guys above I stated to myself I'd put it to the test as most new tires are silent and so I did and was honestly astonished at how quiet the tire was after all the scrubbing and use over the past 2 months. It even had my wife asking if her tires were always that loud (Bridgestone RE760 bought same time as mine).

Dry performance:

I have to say with all the power my little swift has (134hp

Dangerous in wet I honestly don’t know how they are allowed to be sold, doesn’t matter low or high speed they just don’t grip

I have had these tires on all 4 wheels of my car since March 2023 and after driving 22,000 kilometers with them I can rate their performance as quite acceptable.
I do 80-85% of my km on national roads with little unevenness, about 70km a day to go to work. I usually go at the legal speed of 90-100km / h but from time to time to overtake I usually reach 120-130 and I also brake little. I have an average consumption of 5.6L per 100 with a 1.5Tsi of 150cv and Manual...to give you an idea. Well, after these km, the front wheels still need 2mm to reach the 1.6mm wear indicator and the rear ones about 5mm, so there is still a long way to go, which is why with these wheel sizes it is rare to do more than 24-25 thousand km with just one set of tires on the front. The grip on dry roads is decent or quite good, on wet roads it could be improved, as it has happened to me on 3-4 occasions that when starting off in 1st gear from a standstill in the wet, the wheels have skidded when I tried to start off a bit fast. But generally speaking, for normal driving, it does the trick! In sportier driving it is a bit fair and not entirely advisable as it does not give me confidence to go to the limit (I am talking about taking curves in 3rd-4th gear at more than 90-110 km. In sections where in theory it would be prohibited to go more than 80 km per hour). The conclusion is that for what they cost they are frankly good since I paid for them fitted and balanced in my car about €320 for the 4. So everyone can draw their own conclusions...

Dry is ok.

Wet is frightingly dangerous with massive understeer and no grip under exceleration.

Braking distance has almost doubled also.

These ar so bad they should be pulled from the market.

When I bought my new to me Golf GTI performance it came with an almost brand new full set of the Davanti Protoura tires fitted discovered quickly these tires don’t like cold, damp or wet. When cornering they easily understeer and can struggle for traction even in 3rd gear. This has taken my confidence away from these tires. In dry and warm they are perfectly adequate and wear reasonably well. Davanti’s insurance is also another good point as whe I hit a potholes and damaged the side wall I got a new tire for £20 due to minimal wear on the damaged tire. I’d say these tire would be good for a non sporty or powerful car for general driving duties

I drive MB E220d All terrain 4matic, front tires are 245/40R20 and rears 275/35R20. Fitted them in July and made approximately 5000 km with them. Dry grip is good, I am not a sporty driver, driving style covered in written mileage is mostly highway and b roads as well as city driving. Driving in wet is little slippery until they don't warm up, afterward is very good. Regarding wear, after 5000 km I don't see any signs of wear. Overall I am very satisfied with ttires especially with price I have bought it for.

Great tires, look really good on the wheels from a styling point of view. Really grippy in the dry, a bit less in the wet but I find that with all tires. So far I've done a few thousand miles on them and can't notice any wear, still look new. Very impressed

Fitted to 2018 Audi S5. Bought these on the advice from my local tire shop. They had recently started selling them and he said he’d been very impressed by a set he put on his own car. Price was a lot lower than other brands quoted, Falken and Michelin. The car is my daly drive so gets a mix of road types as I commute in to work down both the motorway and A roads. The grip is excellent in dry and also seems very good in the wet, even when pushed hard on the country roads, no loss of control or any noticeable slip. Only slight negative would be a little more road noise but that’s minor and definitely would not put me off. Did some digging online and feedback seems really good in general, very good option if you don’t want to pay for the top end premium brands. Can’t comment too much on wear yet, but looking at them I’ve done a few thousand miles and they still look almost new so can’t see that being an issue

My Seat leon cupra with 306ps (stock) doesn't really suite these tires. Even in the dry, 1st and 2nd and Even 3rd loose traction and in the wet they have barely any traction under acceleration. One going they're good handling tires but the traction under load isn't great at all.
