Given 63% while driving a Ford Focus MK3 (235/40 R18) on a combination of roads for 20 spirited miles
I had these fitted on my 2013 Ford Focus. They are a perfectly acceptable tire at a good price; however, I wouldn't recommend them for anything more than conservative driving. I found handling and grip to be insufficient when driving around corners as a reasonable speed and wet grip was a bit of an issue at anything like half throttle.

Given 23% while driving a Jaguar XF S (245/45 R18) on mostly country roads for 7,000 spirited miles
When I purchased my car unfortunately these tires were fitted. Over 7000 miles of driving with these tires I can say the following. On dual carriageway driving notable roar from the tires is magnified even on new smooth tarmac. B road driving the tires detract from what should be a fun drive, no progression from what the tires are capable of to the limit and in the wet these tires are frankly dangerous. Over the 7000 miles I've noticed fairly quick wear although even, the sidewalls look as though unhappy with the weight of the car. Overall even as a cheap option on a every day car I wouldn't touch these, I certainly wouldn't put these back on my car! Pirelli P-Zeros being fitted 30/05 can't wait.

Given 80% while driving a Toyota Wish (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 49,710 average miles
Best tires for it's price. Tires grip well both dry and wet on straights. steering does not get pulled when going through a puddle resulting in absolute control. Aquaplaning is minimal, you can speed on wet straights. Cornering is ok for dry, not a good idea to speed while wet cornering. Noise and comfort is good for the first 40k-50k kilometres. Used it till worn out at about 80k kilometres.

Given 34% while driving a BMW M3 (265/35 R19) on a combination of roads for 1,500 spirited miles
I bought these tires based on availability whilst abroad in Spain. At the time I had Conti 6s on which were great but wore way to quickly. The reviews seemed quite good and felt they would be fine to get me home on a 700 mile trip on all sorts of A roads, motorways and a couple of B roads. Initially I was very cautious in how far I could push the tires and this proved to be a wise decision as they were woeful in the dry, so did not push my luck in the wet. on twisty A and B roads they struggle for grip with only the finest of throttle input the traction control light is flashing away. It feels like they have a soft tire wall which makes the car feel like its trying to tuck underneath you, could also be down to very soft compound of tread (liken it to winter tire which have soft tread blocks with lots of small channels) Under slightly heavy braking at roughly 70 mph the car feels like it moving around under you, so feels very unsafe. They got me home but spoiled what should of been a great drive on some of Spain's greatest roads. They will be coming off as soon as possible as they are truly awful in all conditions.

Given 100% while driving a Toyota Prius (205/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 13,000 spirited miles
I wasnt expecting to find an outstanding tire in such price. Previous tires yokohama literally lacked grip and control after 20000kms, so i changed them at 30000km only. So far Triangles are 20000km driven on all terrains, i must say soft silent and overall great response. I will definitely buy these again for their Build quality, in such a great price.

Given 27% while driving a Fiat 500X (225/45 R18) on a combination of roads for 2,000 easy going miles
These tires lack any road feedback, you'll suddenly find you've overstepped the limit ( which is very low ) in the dry, In the wet these tires just want to slide at any speed/ road surface. And make the suspension feel harsh, road noise is pretty high inside the cabin. Junking them long before wearing out

Given 89% while driving a Subaru liberty (225/50 R16) on a combination of roads for 2,800 spirited miles
Excellent tires in dry and wet. When passing pool of water on the road, you dont feel any feedback from the steering wheel. Water dispersal is excellent. It is also grippy on winding roads. Im using it with 40psi on my Subaru Exiga. Tire wear is even.

Given 89% while driving a Saab Automobile Aero 1.9 TTID (235/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 1,000 easy going miles
I have a remapped Saab 1.9ttid that puts a lot of power through the front wheels, these tires have been superb! We have had four seasons in one day recently and they were every bit as good as the Avon ZV7’s I had on the car originally. Triangle have been making tires for years and are fit on everything from buses, lorries and cars in Asia. I have marked only 5 for wear as I just don’t know yet only having done 1,000 miles. At the price they are I’m not overly bothered if I need to replace them sooner than the more expensive ones. The words out there now, more people buy them the price will probably increase.

Jaguar (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 25,000 average miles
I reviewed these tires soon after purchase in December, just to update on these, they have been faultless over the past 4 months and around 2500 miles in all conditions, apart from snow which we haven't had this year. Verdict - Definitely recommend

just as good as Run Flats...got a puncture after hitting a pothole in the road, it tore a hole in the outer sidewall. The BMW e92 drove for 26 miles with no air in the nearside rear tire and got us home...
