Tyre reviews Cordiant Gravity. Page 1 427

I bought it blindly, the model is new, there are no reviews. The tire arrived naturally fresh, 1123. It's not as light and comfortable as the Green 2, not as gripping and stable as the Premium Contact 5. But it has grip, acceleration and braking are normal. But on bumps and rails it's soft, but vibrations and noise from rough asphalt are strongly transmitted. There's no sharp, clear zero, but it's not very sensitive to ruts either. There are no obvious failures, but no excitement either. The sidewall is beautiful (for those who care about aesthetics), but it sits on the rim like a house. The tire size is 185/65/15, the rim is 6 inches. In general, it's a solid mid-range tire, it justifies its price, I think.

For the first 2 months, I couldn't help but praise it, quiet, good grip, reasonable price, I used to always drive on Continental, as long as the price was reasonable. But then vibration started, it's visible on the stand how the tire jumps, some kind of dent appeared on the sidewall, not a bulge, but a direct depression, on all 4 wheels in the same places. I've been to 3 different tire shops, wheels were aligned, balancing was done, to no avail, it's ruined the tire.

And it can be assumed that I'm constantly hitting potholes, burning out the tire, and I'm generally to blame, I killed the tire, but, 22,000 km mileage, 2023 tire, I bought a set, today one wheel went flat, we took it off, and it turned out that between the tread, the tire started cracking like on a 15-year-old Yokohama or Continental, and it's only been half a year of operation and less than a year since purchase.

My choice fell on it due to YouTube tests.

Corliant never again.

P.S. good qualities of grip, noise, etc. start to noticeably deteriorate, it got loud on the highway (both hubs were replaced, it's not them making noise)

Didn't buy them here, just to clarify. Ambiguous tires. On the one hand, there are significant advantages and perks from the manufacturer: free tire mounting, unconditional warranty, 15% cashback. On the other hand, I just can't seem to get used to them: sometimes I like them, sometimes I don't. In terms of softness, I don't have any particular complaints - they're not too hard or too soft. They handle the road well, have good traction, and I'm also happy with their performance on wet roads. However, I just can't get accustomed to the noise they make. Am I just getting old?) I even thought it might be the wheel bearings or the suspension, but it seems that's not the issue, and the noise persists. And the worse the asphalt is - the older and rougher it gets - the more noise there is, in my opinion.

I've been driving for the second season. I don't like them, I couldn't get used to them.

1. They are very noisy, especially at speeds above 80-90 km/h and on old asphalt. At first, I even suspected the wheel bearings and suspension, but no - it's the tires. I once conducted an experiment: I drove on a 100-150 meter long patch of brand new asphalt - it was quite comfortable, but as soon as I drove onto the old, rough asphalt, there was immediately noise and hum.

2. Weak sidewalls. This spring, a bulge appeared on one tire. Yes, maybe I'm to blame: I was parking, drove onto an old curb and, apparently, rubbed against it. Or maybe the bulge just appeared on its own. But my previous Michelin Energy Saver tires had nothing wrong with them after 11 years of use! And on the Cordiant, it's the second season, Karl - and look what happened! Very frustrating. I had to repair it, put a patch on the inside.

3. They are a bit too stiff. You can feel the joints and unevenness well.

4. Sometimes there's a feeling that you have to adjust the steering, catch the car on the road, especially when driving on a rough road with a rut and/or around a curve. Maybe it's related to the fact that I took a 205-size instead of the standard 215-size.

In general, I don't recommend them.

I chose tires for the Sonata for a long time, and eventually installed Gravity. The mileage on them is small, but the first impressions are purely positive. It perfectly absorbs bumps, the steering wheel has become a bit heavier, but more informative. Driving on Gravity in the city is a pleasure. Especially on sections where the asphalt is patched - softly, without knocking. For city driving, there are no complaints. On the highway, they also pleased: stability is excellent, no tilts or vibrations. On the highway, it goes smoothly, at 120 km/h it doesn't float. In short, it pleasantly surprised.

Vehicle: Hyundai Sonata

Year of manufacture: 2010

Mileage on tire: 4500 km

I've been using these tires for the second season on my Solaris. Before that, I was driving on a Korean brand, but I decided to try something new. Honestly, I'm pleasantly surprised!

In terms of handling, the car drives like a locomotive, especially delightful is its behavior in the rain. The tread really copes with aquaplaning, even in heavy downpours, I didn't notice the car being swept away. On dry asphalt, everything is also excellent - the steering is clear, the reactions are predictable.

Comfort is also at a high level - the suspension has become softer, small irregularities are less noticeable. However, at speeds over 110 km/h, a slight noise appears, but it's not critical - in the city and on the highway up to 100 km/h, it's completely quiet.

Over the first season, I drove 15,000 km - the wear is minimal, the tread is still alive. The price at the time of purchase was very pleasant, especially considering the quality.

I felt the difference from my old tyres when I hit a water-filled rut at speed during a downpour on a bypass road. The car didn't swerve, the steering wheel didn't jerk from my hands, and road contact remained precise. Driving around the city is comfortable—the tyres smooth out minor surface irregularities in the asphalt. Occasionally, small gravel gets lodged in the tyre tread grooves and makes a tapping sound, but it doesn't affect driving performance.

Летом трасса Москва-Тула и обратно 2 раза в неделю приходится ездить. На 130 км/ч машина как вкопанная, обгоны без страха. В дождь тормозит коротко, в полосе не кидает. Посмотрим, как пройдёт второй сезон.

I bought it as a regular urban tire, but I've already experienced a downpour, morning traffic jams, and potholes after repairs. So far, no surprises: it drives smoothly and brakes predictably. Occasionally, it collects small pebbles, then taps against the wheel arches, but that's a minor issue.

I've been driving for several months - since April, they don't cause any problems. I drive through puddles calmly, the steering wheel doesn't jerk. Small gravel constantly gets stuck in the tread on our workplace parking lot. But everyone suffers from this - got used to it.
