Tyre reviews Arivo Ultra ARZ5 171

I bought them in the summer as a replacement for Kormoran. I drove out of Mosaftoshin's specialized tire fitting, and immediately felt vibrations in the steering wheel on the KAD, the steering wheel started beating even when braking. I called the company, they said I need to run them in for about 1000 km, after running them in, nothing changed much, even after tire fitting. The only plus is that they are quiet.

As a result, I handed over the tires for diagnostics, after 20 days Mosaftoshin returned them saying that everything is normal. So I'm driving with egg-shaped tires, and it seems they only take on this shape under load, when balancing everything is fine.

I wrote to the director, repeatedly to managers with the problem, the result is zero.

I've been driving for more than one season, in the summer on Kormoran and in the winter on studless tires, ideal tires, I didn't even think about balancing after running them in.

1. The tire balancing is excellent, ranging from 10 to 30 grams per wheel, which is a rarity even among A-brands.
2. The tire is soft, with good traction at +5 degrees Celsius outside.
3. The tire is really quiet and comfortable.
4. The tire weight is 12.2 kg, which is not light, but it has a strong sidewall.
5. The tread depth is 7.5 mm, with 5.8 mm to the wear indicator.
6. The tire is slightly wider than the standard 245 mm, which will protect the rim from minor curbs, although the ZR rating is not claimed by the manufacturer.
7. The production date is the 41st week of 2021.
A set of 245/45 R18 tires was purchased from Mosaftoshina, Aviamotornaya Street 65, building 1, literally yesterday, and a special thank you to the managers for the opportunity to choose tires of the same weight!
I will update the review as I continue to use the tires.

Satisfied with the rubber, given its price. Medium stiffness, not hard, not soft. Load index is acceptable, given that the tires are on older rims. The sidewall is adequate, within reason.

That moment when expectation-reality worked with precision on the contrary. Behaves perfectly in the city and on the highway. Compared to Pirelli, it's heaven and earth. I recommend purchasing. Not noisy, balanced, soft.

255-50-19 Minimal tread wear. Tire noise is not audible (the car's arches are soundproofed). Aquaplaning is present (hold the steering wheel with both hands). At high speeds, it holds well up to 180 km/h (the car doesn't go faster). When taking long turns at 90-180 degrees, rare tire squeal is heard (Hankook and Kumho squealed like a pig with a rear axle skid on a similar tread). It predictably passes through ruts without throwing the car off course. It slips and gets clogged in mud. This tire is for asphalt!!! There are no punctures, although I've hit potholes so hard that they bent the rims. It suits me, I would buy it again.

We have driven on these tires for a relatively short distance, but it can be concluded that the tires deliver high results for the price. So far, we have only driven within the city.

In urban conditions, these tires are indistinguishable from well-known brands in terms of feel and properties. I want to note the quietness in the cabin on these tires.

For this price, there are no complaints about the tire, but we'll see what happens next.

I bought these tires based on reviews, many people had them and I decided to give it a try. I bought them for a Priora with a low profile 205/40, initially I had concerns that they would be too hard and noisy, but these were just concerns, in reality the tires showed themselves from the best side, not noisy and sufficiently medium in terms of hardness (previously I drove on Pirelli P7) unlike more expensive manufacturers. I recommend the tires for purchase. I drove around 12,000 km for the season, the wear is not critical at all, the grip is good. Take them, you won't regret it

A quite decent tire, not different from NATO and Japanese counterparts. Not noisy, holds the road well, does not aquaplane at 100 km/h on the highway.

There were concerns about China, but we had to go to Crimea and these were the only ones available. Very pleased with the tires, they handle the road perfectly, very quiet, and the aquaplaning is moderate. So far, everything is fine.

I purchased these tires on June 10, 2023. I have driven 3,000 km, with varying speeds from 0 to 210 km/h. The tires hold the road, but they are noisy (if you need silence in the cabin, this is not your choice). After 3,000 km, the tires still have not been run-in. The car shakes and pulls to the side. I took all the tires in for inspection in Moscow, and they were picked up on the same day without any questions. After all procedures, I will supplement my review!
