Best Tyres

This is my second review on these tyres, because after trading my previous car (a Mitsubishi Lancer retro-fitted with the Michelin tyres), I bought a… Read more

2020 Honda CR-V AWD, which coincidentally came from the factory as OEM with the same type of Michelin tyres fitted (to all five wheels), albeit a larger size than the Lancer's.

After 22,000 plus kilometres on these tyres, I am still impressed with them, with great riding qualities enhancing the Honda's already smooth ride, good grip in both wet and dry conditions, and also great grip under heavy braking. This car is used for long highway trips, as well as some shorter runs around the city and suburbs, and the tyres instil great confidence in the safety and handling of the car on the road.

Noise levels are a little higher than I would expect, especially considering the improvement they made to the Lancer's interior noise levels, so I would knock maybe half a star of my rating for that. They are not showing much wear at this stage of their lives, so I can't report on the tyres' longevity.

Overall, I still highly recommend these Michelin tyres, although I believe they have been superseded by a newer "model" now, so may no longer be available.

Efficient friendly service. Tyres as expected. Would highly recommend. Thank you Show details

Phenomenonal tyres the Serenity Plus'. Did 70,000km of thrashing them in a FWD V6 Sedan. Spun wheels regularly, did burnouts on private property,… Read more

used enthusiastically around corners etc. The literal abuse of these tyres and kms I got out of them has me putting another set of 4 on today. I rotated myself and did 1 wheel alignment in their life. I would have gotten 80,000km + had I done 2 wheel alignments. Wet grip has been great until end of life. Generally handled very well in the dry and on gravel roads.

Job was done efficiently and professionally on time.Installer was friendly and polite and didn’t make me feel like an id*ot for not knowing about the tyre installation process. Show details

Great Tyres this is my second set wouldn’t hesitate to buy again Show details

No noise, however there is extreme shuddering at 80km/h and above - which did not occur with the previous tyres. This might be due to the installer… Read more

not balancing the tyres correctly, but I won't know for certain until I get them properly checked. Had I known that Kumho was no longer a reliable Korean brand, but instead had been sold to a Chinese company, I would not have purchased these tyres.

I have been using Michelin tyres for a very long time with all my cars. I have always felt safe and very confident about them. I highly recommend them, particularly for high performance cars. Show details

Long lasting but a little road noise. Handles road well Show details

I purchased a set of Dynapro At2 xtreme LT 121 tyres (edit: in 2024), got them in a 4 for 3 deal for $1140 but since then have had to buy 2… Read more

replacements as well; on this day currently left with one good one, 1 burst, 2 cut tyres from the last trip I no longer trust (one replacement bought in Esperance in Jan 2026 only had 500km on it before getting deep side wall cuts). One is decent, so basically after 18 months and 5000km I need 4 new tyres before heading off on my next outback trip. So far total bill is $1140 + $440+$440

From the very beginning after fitment I was concerned about the amount of wallow and ballooning they had, certainly didn't seem like strong sidewalls, eg they seemed to squirm around in the city when turning left from an intersection, (my older tyres didn't do that and they weren't even LT tyres, just cheap "AT"s that were more of a highway spec). They also ballooned out at the bottom and looked flat @40psi, the previous older tyres my patrol came with looked normal at 38psi. Something is wrong here for an alleged "LT 121" tyre as sidewalls should be stiffer than that.

Of course there's likely thousands of customers that drive on highways, gravel, dirt or beaches happy with their Hankooks, but I bought these as an upgrade to take on serious rocky trails. I thought Hankook made a decent product and I trusted them.

But so far, 5000km, 4 punctures (mostly sidewall tears that then bust later after a tree root or rock impact.) While on the road the past I've replaced 2 due to sidewall bursts, meaning so far I've bought 6 of these tyres: 2 burst, 2 still on my vehicle with enough sidewall damage for me to never go off road with them in a rocky environment I often travel in again ( like south eastern WA where it's all dunes and rocks or even central WA where it's rocky sometimes too. These tyres get sidewall cuts at 21-26psi, and get regular tread punctures at 35psi.)

Blame terrain, pressures, my driving but I always carried 2 of the original fitted tyres (another brand), no punctures or sidewall damage with them and they are just cheap maxtreks - they always got me home on the same terrain without similar damage. I started driving in 1991 and only had one blow out in my life previously (2001 - old tyre on a beater car driving cross country), and only 3 slow punctures in my life as well - usually screws and teks on the road causing slow leaks. So the fact that I got so much tyre damage in the last 12 month period alone just with this tyre brand and model should ring massive alarm bells Too soft Do not behave like a stiff wall 'LT' at all. Seem worse than a cheap highway tyre model so it was $2000 total spent that was not an upgrade in any way, shape or form, only one good tyre left, currently needing 4 new ones. I can't even email the company with pictures and videos because they don't publish an email address

The new tyres are great.. really notice the difference from the old ones. Great job Show details

Really good tyres,couldn’t be happier.extremely quiet no road noise,great handling on wet roads Show details

Great tyres, already driven around in a range of different weather conditions and they've maintained grip and stability without issue.

Great tyres for a 4WD. They really last long. Vehicle has mostly been on sealed roads with occasional venture onto beaches and into the forests. Good… Read more

handling and performance. A bit of a hard ride when pumped up above 38PSI. Deflate to 15 PSI on beaches with loose sand without any problem. Done over 49 000km on them and still have 9mm of tread remaining. I'd definitely buy another set.

I got these tyres on recommendation from my mechanic. I do light off road but 99% on bitumen or gravel. Initial thoughts - wow! So quiet and smooth… Read more

- and I drive a 200 series Sahara which is very comfortable anyway. To actually notice a difference in the ride was amazing for my comfort.

Will check back in at 10,000 kms.

Thanks to the team at Malvern Tyre and Service

Goodyear eagle are the best and to go with that great service

Great value tyres! As advertised, service is amazing. Second time I've used MTS and wouldn't do it any other way

These are definitely good SUV tyres so it wouldn’t be fair to give them a poor review. In particular, they handle really well and are extremely… Read more

versatile. I will say though, they were a bit too much of an SUV tyre for my Mazda CX30, which I think was due to the sidewall stiffness triggering the tight rear torsion beam suspension. My theory is that the car didn’t have enough weight to properly engage the sidewall, which resulted in a rough ride and interior rattles on poor quality roads. It may have even just been a poor match for the suspension on this particular car. I ended up switching them out for PC6’s, which seems to have fixed the issue. So if you have a lighter car like a hatch or a subcompact crossover, in particular a CX30 or a Mazda 3, maybe consider something else. If you have a heavier crossover or an SUV, don’t worry, these are fantastic.

Solid choice smooth ride, great grip in both wet and dry conditions, and noticeably better fuel efficiency. It’s quiet on the road and feels really reliable for everyday driving.

Best tyre I’ve owned. Super safe, durable and long lasting. Slightly uncomfortable on long drives – Purchased these after multiple tyre breakages with other brands. These lasted by far the longest (actually got to wear them out). They grip well, can… Read more

handle corners in wet and dry conditions, and the 2-ply wall has allowed for excellent durability. My only gripe is they’re a little uncomfortable when driving longer distances- it’s a small price to pay for the safety and durability on offer. Having gone through a few sets now over several years. It’s a shame they’re discontinued as would definitely purchase them again.

I've been running these tyres for a little over 3 years now on my six wheeler and have nothing but praise for them. I find them great in the wet… Read more

(maybe the 3.8 tonnes helps) and the dry. Off road they are amazing in the sand and rough dirt roads and tracks. I don't do rock crawling so i cannot comment on that with the exception that aren't aggressive mud tyres! They're pretty quiet for an All terrain and are coming up to 40K and are about half worn, so if I can get 70K out of them I'll be extremely happy.

Just done 5000km road trip with these tyres. Great tyre with no road noise. Good grip on bitumen under hard breaking. Had a big load on them, no issues. Pity it took 3 attempts for Bob Jane Albury to balance them. Show details

Love the tyres with 9Low noise and brilliant handling...Highly recommend them... Show details

Hopeless tyre came standard on nissan pro 4x – Nearly worn out at 20000 km,they offer good grip wet and dry and not to bad off road , just don't last, my last nissan I put Hankook on and they had 40000 km when I traded it and they were still good Show details

You guys helped me out no end. Thanks for being open on a Sunday. Cracked and buckled rims you helped so much. The rings were fixed well and are holding up. Thanks again Show details

Hankook optimo tyres – had mine 3 years in the wet very bad slide also turn corners need be careful the wet wouldnt recommend these tyres but up to u to buy crap

Great tyres and fitted fast - in my driveway! Very convenient

Good tyres for its price – We had 4 of these tyres. The back tyres lasted 40,000km. The front tyres will go up to 45,000km easy. We didnt do a good job of rotating them! We… Read more

used 225/60/r17. Good tyres for its price. Handling was nothing out of the ordinary. Relatively good petrol consumption. Definitely no mugs. I saw them real cheap at Tempe Tyres in Sydney.

OEM tyres on 2019 Hilux – Had these from new on a 2019 Toyota Hilux SR5. 265x60r18 Yes, smooth quite highway / bitumen driving. Ok on soft offroad use like light gravel roads… Read more

and a bit of light sand use. Definitely not great on wet / muddy grass, but that's expected with this type of tread pattern.

Just one month shy of 2 years use, 53,000 kms, and unfortunately the poor process of the Toyota service department "rotation" system (missing rotation on 2x service intervals and then only doing front to back on same side) had excessive wear on the outside of the passenger side wheels outer walls. Rest of the tread was ok for probably another "legal" 20,000km, but in reality in wet weather the traction control was starting to work overtime.

Plus, I started to notice from about 18 months use, around the 40,000km, the tyres would give off a "squeal" in dry conditions on hard concrete surfaces like carparks etc when cornering at slow speeds.

On a 4wd, these are really just highway and soft offroad tyres. An AT type variant tyre is probably more appropriate on a Hilux type vehicle.

I've replaced them with Scorpion All Terrain + tyres (see my review on here)

theyr'e really good and professional.makes things so much easier with mobile tyres change and also their price are reasonable.

SINO Sport In Name Only – It is important to read the manufacturer’s description and ask for more details from the retailer before seeing the name “Sport” and thinking you are… Read more

getting a sporty tyre. I did that and have performance similar to tractor tyres. My vehicles were specced with SP’s from new (20+ years ago) and they were a very grippy tyre so I confidently had them fitted. I couldn’t replace them with the excellent Goodyear Assurance Triple Max tyres and had to take what I thought was a similar tyre. Having a 1250 tare weight car with very decent suspension and grip, I’ve barely had my abs engage, even under heavy braking, now these low grip tyres are activating the ABS frequently due to a lack of grip. The joy of driving my car has gone from fitting these tyres. They made me think about just using public transport since driving was making a two decade long enjoyment of using this type of car a bad experience. The car has lost its precision, stability on corners, braking efficiency and made me not drive with the same level of confidence that I’ve enjoyed across many different road surfaces and conditions. Objectively, “B” traction specs are not as safe as “A” traction tyres and fitting them (B traction) for comfort or extended wear resistance is idiotic and adds to the risk of an accident or loss of control by a significant margin. I can’t wait to replace these wombat tyres. They are “good” tyres but you may want “excellent” tyres when it matters most (and for every day enjoyment). I don’t rate their wet performance at all, terrible, The worst wet and dry braking I’ve ever had on my cars, the barely legal tread on the Goodyears that these replaced destroy these near new tyres for wet grip, control and braking. They don’t feel like they would aqua-plane poorly but then again poor control and grip in the dry is only worse in the wet so maybe aqua planing would be safer even if it’s random. I can’t wait to ditch them, they are a very regretful purchase and I was safer driving on the nearly worn old tyres and should have ordered the better tyres, which were similar in price but unavailable. Sport? That word on these tyres is beyond any stretch of the imagination or marketing embellishments. It would take many more generations and an unusual evolution of language, in very sedate society also lacking any historical references sport and the activities of the past to even refer to these in that context, unless the tyre was used as a hoop or to roll down a hill and chase, the name sport shouldn’t even be applied to these sarcastically. As a “sport” tyre, no, wrong word, just put Tyre on the side or “mid spec tyre”. They are better than tyres showing wires and I can’t fault the lettering on the sidewalls, that is done in good taste.
