I use these tyres on my Ford Mondeo. I will never buy them again, cause they are incredibly loud. Never had anything as loud as these Firenzas, even my winter tyres are quiet in comparison...

Purchase these Firenzas at Oponeo. As for the store - as always, full of professionalism. As for the tyres - they are average, but then again the price isn't that high. On the plus: good drainage, not too noisy, very hard sidewall (good cornering in dry), attrition above average (compared to the previous directional Toyos). Appearance ok - a matter of taste. On the downside: possible skids on wet bends. Next buy? As usual, a different one, but I could go fit them to my other car with a different, tuned suspension.

I can't believe that people actually recommend these tyres.They must be faked or written by deaf people, so I decided to warn the potential buyers. The tyres are a total failure. Noise levels can give you headaches, significant increase in fuel consumption. In one of mine the shoulder has actually separated from the carcass for no apparent reason. After switchng from Goodyear winter tyres it took me a month to get used to the noise and my friends thought I had to replace bearings. I can honestly say: stay away from that sh..

Tyres for dry only, just a few drops of rain is enough to lose all grip and tracktion. I've done just a little over 10k miles and now I am totally discouraged.

Tyres in the wet nasty surprise. For dry are really OK.

I bought these tyres after reading about them on the Internet. I wanted something good for wet surfaces. On dry it's OK - nothing to complain about, but on the wet... completely useless! If you want to stay out of trouble, start braking half a mile earlier, otherwise you're gonna have a bad time. In the rain at speeds of about 30mph even touching the brake means the loss of tracktion! Car just slides all over the road... Definately not to be recommended!

Only got 15,000 non-winter kms out of them. The treads wore unevenly and, as a result, over the last few thousand kms, they started to quite literally howl when driving at speeds of at 80-90 kph or more. The noise became unbearable over the last month or so, so I had them replaced.
