Ford Fiesta Tire Review Highlights
Writing about the Nankang Noble Sport NS20 given 49% (195-45-16-)

Driving on mostly motorways for 25000 spirited miles
Initial impressions were very good, except for the noise. However the tire wear wear was very pronounced, after 20k km (of to be fair quite aggresive driving) the tread depth was at the minimum markers. Performance, especially in the wet is very negatively affected as the tire wears. All in all for the price (around 100€ a pair) no major complaints. However I have recently switched to second hand PS3s and there is no comparison, in my opinion it is worth getting used premium instead.

I bought these tires as an efficient but premium replacement to the Michelin PS4's that I had on prior, and I was really disappointed. I bought these through KwikFit as they were A for Fuel and B for Wet Grip so they looked like a great option. However, the tires were less grippy in the wet and dry compared to the PS4 and I noticed cracking between the tread and along the edge of the sidewall. My car is a Mk8 Fiesta ST which does a lot of motorway miles but has the odd sprint on a backroad, these tires (nor the car) have ever been used on track and the cracks appeared quickly on the front pair and also eventually after a few months they appeared throughout the back pair of tires. I had the front ones changed prematurely due to my concern about the structural integrity of the tire. I complained and sent them back to KwikFit and they said they would send on to Goodyear for investigation, however after numerous chase-ups and calls I never received a verdict or a refund.
Maybe it's my fault for going with a more efficient tire over something like a Michelin or Continental UHP tire but I can confidently say these tires are not a high performance tire and do not have the longevity I have come to expect from the PS4's before it and the Continental PremiumContact 7's that I replaced them with.

I had to buy 2 pairs of FRD16 as an emergency replacement for my budget cars mismatched and worn tires. At time if purchasing this brand and model were available at the tire shop. I paid £67 for each tire for the fitment. I usually drive on motorways at 70mph + every day. I travel 60 mile in each day between my home and job place. I found the ride fairly bumpy, jumpy and noisy. Therefore, I wouldn't reccomend these tire for frequent high speed motorway users... I also experienced a near miss hydroplaning at nearly 50 mph on a heavy rain on the motorway. FRD 16s' unsatisfactory wet performance is obviously noticeable whenever you hit the water puddles in the road on a rainy days at relatively high speeds. I think these tires are well suited for a low speed city commuting in a congested traffic.

Best winter tires! Period. I had these WR D4 for 5 years on my 2010 Fiesta and I even used them during 3 summers and they still have some tread. I would choose them even over Conti or other premium brands! You cant go wrong with these winter tires at least at the 175/65/R14 size. Got them at a very good price I will definitely buy them again!

Only had these for about 20,000km - but still 5mm tread left.
Very reliable in wet and dry, decent feedback and comfortable as well as decent MPG return - I would definitely buy these again.

First 10,000 ~ 12,000 miles were impressive. While cornering i noted a slight tendence to understeer on slippery under some conditions where regular tires (i drive other car with "economy tires") behave as they should. Breaking under wet conditions (straight) is quite good but when slightly cornering and breaking story could be different activating other car systems (ABS, TCS or ESP). Wear, visually, is not very noticeable but it does in perfomance so i understand this is a normal condition on "mid-tier" UHP tires however this is why after 20,000 miles i will another set of new Ventus in my car, yes i will buy them again.
PS - OEM tires were Hankook Optimo H426 which used to have limited contact with the road. :P

Pros:
Excellent dry cornering and braking
Very good on snow and ice
Even with occasional faster driving the tires have lasted over 20,000 miles and still have between 3/4mm of tread left.
Cons:
Does not perform particularly well in the rain. Car gets pulled around a lot by standing water. However, it does feel in control when letting off the accelerator as it slows down.

I have a ford fiesta ecoboost and do spirited driving daily in South Africa. These tires have lasted me easily over 60 000km. They are strong and deal with potholes with no issue. Grip is substantial in dry but I don't feel as confident in the wet. All in all I would definitely buy again for the price!

Driving on a combination of roads for 12000 average miles
put a pair on the front roughtly 18 months/12000 miles ago and about to have the rears changed to the same. compared to the other tires we've had on our Fiesta (Pirelli, Kumho, Arrowspeed) these Toyo CF2s are by far the best. they are lighter on the steering and very positive when pushed through corners, comfortable and less noisy plus the wear rate looks good too. the only negative I found is that they need quite a long time to scrub-in and come up to full grip, roughly 1500-2000 miles.

The performance of these tires was better than expected and were purchased in late November 2021. They hold the road well in most conditions when the air temperature is above freezing. In terms of handling, we haven't experienced any issues. I have just replaced the front tires as they were reaching end of life. The rear tires are still going strong. Approximately 17000 road miles, I'm not unimpressed!
