vs
Tires Achilles or Hifly
my Achilles ATR Sport 2 last forever in the rear and have good grip
Pros: last forever, good grip
I've been recommended Achilles ATR Sport 2 by literally all of my friends. I've had Pilot Super Sports before, and the Achilles handle extremely similar while intense driving. I'd say they last just as long as well.
Pros: similar to Pilot Super
Mileage: 4000 km
I've pushed those achilles so hard and there is still practically no wear! still trying to make these fit proper, some more fender rolling is needed.
Pros: practically no wear
Cons: fender rolling needed
I have had these on for a few weeks. They are super quiet and have an amazing ride.
Pros: super quiet, amazing ride
I picked a set of these tires up from Bob a few months ago, I didn't want to wear out my RE-11's doing daily driving so I needed a second set of tires. The only thing I noticed about them is they do have a bit of road noise that comes in around 30-50km, but that is it. Performance and traction wise they are pretty good; infact better than most touring tires IMO. They handle equally well in the rain and with a higher treadwear rating they should last at least three or four summers for me.
Pros: pretty good performance, good traction
Cons: bit of road noise
Well, I put a set of Achilles Platinums on my vehicle today. On another forum 2 guys were having a raging debate about the good vs. bad on these tires. Even though these tires are relatively new to North America they do have a racing pedigree in Europe, and they very well exceed the standard American standards for compliance.
Pros: racing pedigree in Europe
I have used that brand i linked before though, and they are ok. I wouldnt put them on a track car or go 150mph in them, but they are fine for your average daily.
Pros: fine for daily use
Cons: not for track car
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
I wouldn't recommend Achilles tires in general. The bare tire (unmounted) flat-spotted under its own weight.
Cons: flat-spotted under weight
