Review on Formula Energy 205/60 R16 92V summer by Wiktor Iwanski ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I like the product, the quality did not disappoint.

I got to know the tires in comparison: before them were the "Big Brothers" Pirelli Cinturato P6 195/65 R15. The car is a Suzuki SX4. Already drove on it more than 7000 km. I changed tires at the beginning of the warm season. We hung loads from 10 to 20 grams per wheel. As expected, immediately after the change of winter tires to summer tires, frost hit. Fortunately, there was no ice and the tires withstood the frost perfectly well. True, some stiffness was felt along the way for the first few kilometers. Immediately, what I noticed compared to Pirelli is the noise from the rubber. On this, in my opinion, the shortcomings ended. Everything else will be with the addition of "not inferior" or "superior". The car began to feel better in corners (does not break), the smaller one feels hitting the rut and, most importantly, is less susceptible to hydroplaning. At Pirelli it was a disaster. Braking on pavement in any weather is predictable and is not inferior to the Big Brother. I was rubbed on the curb on the highway by a trucker, also without a rush. Of course it is not created for dirt. This can be immediately understood from the tread pattern. There are no illusions here. There is one more nuance - with a sharp gust of side wind, there is a push on the steering wheel. You need to be prepared for this and not panic. I didn't notice any wear during this period. For myself, I concluded that the tire is even nothing. Pah-pah.

Pros
  • Handling, hydroplaning resistance.
Cons
  • A bit noisy.
