Review on Matador MP 47 Hectorra 3 185/65 R14 86T summer by Michal Cedronski ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A nice option for the money, one of the best deals.

I bought a set of 195/65 R15 at the end of spring and was pleasantly surprised - in comparison with Michelin Energy, it does not lose anything, although it costs 2 times cheaper. It is important to note that this is a comfortable, quiet and economical rubber for a relaxed driving style. There are 2 reasons for this - the soft sidewall, which is easy to break through (theoretically, has not yet flown into such situations) and a satisfactory dry grip in the transverse direction (drift outward when speeding in a gentle turn). I can’t say anything about wear resistance yet, since it’s the first season on it, but as soon as there is information, I’ll add a review for sure. And the rest - very satisfied. I recommend! : November 2022. The tires have already been skated for 4 seasons and about 45. the tread has worn off slightly, the tires look absolutely alive and even quite fresh. There were no breakdowns during this time (one self-tapping screw does not count). The properties are also all preserved, so I recommend - you can take

Pros
  • - low noise (before that was Michelin Energy - those are a little noisier) - good rolling out and, as a result, a positive effect on fuel consumption - soft - comfortably passes obstacles - wet handling - price!
Cons
  • - soft (so that the sidewall of the removed tire is easy to squeeze with your fingers). So there are fears that with a more or less rigid passage of the joint or the sharp edge of the pit, the sidewall can be damaged. It hasn't happened yet, but I'm being careful. - hook on dry pavement - passed a high-speed gentle turn at a speed slightly higher than usual - the car slipped out of the turn by about 1/3-1/2 lanes. Although on the previous tires (both summer and winter under the same conditions) this effect was not observed.
