Saab Automobile 9 5 2.2 TID Vector Estate Tire Review Highlights

Had these tires fitted at the end of September prior to an MOT. As is typical these days, money was tight so went down the budget tire route. Well, today, mid December, I've moved them from the front to the back, to try and squeeze a few more miles out of them, and they are done. After 1,579 miles, they're on the wear markers. Dry and wet grip was adequate, but the wear rate is definitely not. Budget tires... ...they're only cheap on the day. I will not be buying them again, nor any of their cheap Chinese brethren.

Had these fitted as I needed tires in a hurry and on a tight budget.
They were cheap for a reason.
About 8 months fitted and they're worn out, down the the wear markers. My yearly average is 5000 miles, and that's steady old man motoring.

Back to Avon or Falken without a doubt.

Purchased these tires after reading good reviews. Never again! I drive in excess of 100k every year and have used most budget brands. These tires were fitted along with most front suspension parts at MOT. Tracking was done, these tires are on the wear indicators at under 3000 miles!!!! Worst ive ever had on fronts is 9000 on budget tires. Useless in the wet as well.

Needed some front tires quick for the MOT, and the ones I wanted weren't available at short notice, and my tire dealer suggested these.
BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD!!!! They were ok pottering around the bumpy tracks in the Forest of Dean for a few days in the dry, but at the weekend I took a trip along the M4 to London in the rain - God Almighty, I had to keep the speedo pegged at 60mph, I felt THAT unconfident in these tires! Not surprisingly it was a slow miserable trip with those tires on the car. Steering was vague and wandered from side to side and felf over-light with no feedback at all.
Roundabouts provided a challenge too, even at slow speeds - although I wasn't sliding about - the line I had to take was completely different to before, and it was so unpredictable whether it was going to understeer or oversteer.

The dealer took them back from me without a quibble and I now have Uniroyal Rainsport 2's - and my Saab is now back to its old self again!

Lot of complaints on here about these tires that I simply do not recognise from my experience of them. These are touring tires not street racer tires, so blaming them for losing grip tells me something about the driving style of the reviewer. I have not found the ride to be uncomfortable, in fact quite the opposite. Noise levels are unobtrusive, grip in wet and dry has never let me down. Wear is better than average, particluarly given mine is a fairly heavy car, used to tow a caravan. If I have a complaint at all it is with directional stability, which can be slightly vague on a dead straight road.
