These tires are great on wet or dry conditions. On snow they are worthless. I got stuck twice on a plowed street. On the ice they are scary. The good part of these tires are they are very quiet. I can't tell you about tread life because they only have about 5000 miles on them.

CHEAP JUNK ALL 4 WORN DOWN AT 10K MILES

Four of these tires were fitted to my Tucson by the previous owner just prior to me purchasing the car. Initially I was pleased that the car came with vitually new tires. However it soon became clear that HIFLY HF201 tires have some severe limitations when it comes to basic roadholding and build quality. In short, THESE TYRES ARE DANGEROUS.

The first thing I noticed was the large number of balance weights that had been used on each wheel. This led me to take a close look at the tires and I immediately noticed a variation in tread depth across the width of the tires, it varied from 8mm to 4.5mm on all tires (hence the need for all those balance weights). I used to work for Michelin (Stoke-on-Trent) so I understand how tires are made, but I can't figure out how the folks at HIFLY have managed to do this. Maybe their vulcanising moulds are just poorly manufactured or unevenly heated. The side walls had a few lumps, nothing too serious but I was suprised to see this on virtually new tires.

The second thing I noticed was the general poor handling of the car and severe lack of grip on dry roads. Lots of low speed tire squeal and unintentional wheel spins at junctions. This led me to check the tire pressures but they were found to be fine (30 psi each). I don't drive like a maniac but I do expect tires to at least perform to a reasonable standard. Wet roads proved to be even more of a challenge with the final straw being a 180 degree spin at around 25mph on a rounabout near Edinburgh.
Changed all four of the HIFLYs for Uniroyal Rallye4x4 street tires and the car was immediately transformed into an enjoyable and safe ride.
The lesson here is that you get what you pay for, or in my case you get what the previous owner paid for.
There may well be good tires out there at the cheaper end of the market but I'm affraid the HIFLY HF201 is NOT one of them.

can't answer all the questions because I have recently fitted these tires on my old 6x4 box trailer.The tires that were on it were past their use by date and I frequently carry about 600kg of soil which is near the trailers load limit.
I was reluctant to fit budget tires on the trailer considering what would be expected of them.I recently towed the trailer at 110klms on a freeway for 200klms with 300kg of furniture on board with no problems.I feel this is more than enough recommendation for these tires.

Good tires for price. Iam not a fast driver but these tires perform as well as the Bridgestones they replaced. Why spend hundred per tire upwards when our roads are cracking and potholed . Ivd done well over 20k miles on these tires and my car aint light so thats gud enough for me. Ive read on other reviews that these tires are ditchfinders? Fairenough if you gonna drive like a dick your gonna end up in a ditch anyway. There tires are a good balance of price and performance for the savvy motorists who arent badge snobs. Btw ive driven 25years all over the Planet. I thk iam experienced enough to make an informed comment.

used on a Toyota Yaris. Were fine in dry, but as yaris is lightweight, in the wet on takeoff the tires would spin badly. In wet if taking off on any slight incline the front tires would spin so badly the car would slip to the side (at walking speed) endangering other cars. Certainly wouldn't want to use them on hilly or mountain roads in the wet. They did actually brake well in wet as the weight was all forward then. Would probably be ok in a heavier car - but not a small light front wheel drive car.

I first bought the hifly tires on the advice of the tire salesman.
They're absolutely great.
The 185 65 R14 HF201 were fitted to a Mazda 323 Protege 1.8L.
They're extremely comfortable and quiet. Grip is excellent in the dry and better in the wet than the Goodyear Eagle that were previously fitted.
Durability is also great.
Have now done 40,000km on them in 40 degrees summer, 10 degrees winter in Melbourne, Australia.

Very difficult to balance wheels with these tires resulting in slight vibration at motorway speeds even after second visit to tire shop. Poor grip pulling away from traffic lights with damp or wet roads. Little road feel and quite sloppy feeling when cornering. On a positive, Very good grip in dry, hard wearing and comfortable over rough roads with minimal road noise. Probably not best choice for powerful front wheel drive cars. Would pay a little extra for Goodyear, Continental, Michelin, Hankook, Nokian or vredestein etc.. in future
