Tyre reviews Hifly Vigorous HP801 303

225/60 R18, Belgee X70 (Geely Atlas Pro), I've driven 7,000 km on them, mostly on highways. For those who are too lazy to read, I'll summarize - these tires are for city driving, not for highways.

Let's start with the bad.

1. The tires are noisy at high speeds. Even compared to my winter Pirelli Ice Zero FR, they're louder. Up to 80 km/h, it's fine, but on the highway after 100 km/h, it's impossible to have a conversation in the car. I have soundproofing on my arches and doors, but even that doesn't help.

2. They don't handle well at high speeds on uneven roads. It's not like I need to constantly correct the steering, but the car feels like it wants to jump out of its lane, keeping me on edge. On smooth roads, they're great up to 180 km/h, but as soon as there are potholes, I start to get tense.

Now, the good.

3. These tires are great on any puddles! One night, I was driving on a winding road through the forest, speed around 80 km/h, and I hit a deep puddle in a turn. The car held the road perfectly, even with a significant lean. I was impressed with the Chinese manufacturer right away.

4. The tires handle well on dry and wet asphalt at city speeds, braking, accelerating, and maneuvering at 60-80 km/h is a pleasure. They don't squeal, screech, or start to roar during sharp turns when the sidewall is loaded.

5. The well-developed sidewall in the area where the tire meets the rim forgives curbing, and I've already scraped the sidewall against the curb several times, but the rim is still intact.

6. My car is heavy, 1.7 tons, and with me, soundproofing, and other stuff, it's probably close to 2 tons. The recommended pressure is 2.2 bar, and I can comfortably drive over most speed bumps at speeds from 30 to 60 km/h. Transverse cracks and small potholes are almost imperceptible, except for the sound.

7. Significantly less mud splashes onto the sides of the car. With my winter Pirelli tires, after 5 minutes of driving on a wet road, the car looks like a pigsty. Last autumn, I had stock tires, and even the side windows would get splashed. I have mudguards installed.

These are summer tires, and it's pointless to expect any performance on snow or ice. However, during the time I've had them, I've already had to drive on snow and ice... not that it's relevant to these tires, but I was driving on a dam one night after rain in sub-zero temperatures, and the dam was completely frozen. I was driving at 20-30 km/h, and I was praying that the passing cars wouldn't lose control...

In conclusion, I bought these tires because my stock tires were damaged in a fire, and I was short on cash. The tires are very good for city driving, and considering the price, they're almost perfect. Up to 80 km/h, they're quiet, they handle well on both dry and wet roads, and they're fine on city speeds. Even deep puddles don't make them lose traction. If your main driving is in the city, go for it, the tires are worth every penny... or even more. But if you have to drive on highways a lot like I do, then no, the tires are too noisy at high speeds, and that's their main drawback for me.

P.S. I'm in St. Petersburg, and we haven't had any heatwaves yet, all the above observations were made at temperatures from 0 to 15 degrees Celsius, and the tires themselves heated up to a maximum of 25-35 degrees Celsius. If I don't replace them before the heatwave (and I really want to, but I don't have the money yet), I'll be sure to update my comment. It's a pity that I couldn't attach photos and videos.

P.P.S. I bought the tires through VB in Mosavtoshin, and it turned out to be cheaper, with free delivery right to my doorstep.

Good tires, quiet, at a speed of 150 everything is fine, in the rain 120 holds. But on wet dirt road, the tires are no good, the car doesn't brake at all. But they are not made for this. And on the highway and in the city, everything is good.

From April to October, I drove 16,000 km. Everything is fine, I passed through a turn in the rain, unexpectedly encountering a puddle at 95 km/h as if on rails, without any signs of aquaplaning. In terms of noise, it's 4+., the pressure was 2.2, and it's more comfortable that way. Overall, it has worked well for the season, the tread is like new.

The tire was very much liked. Soft, not noisy. Well-balanced. Better than many European manufacturers.

Ran on this tire for 4 seasons. Liked it in all parameters. For this reason, in the fall of 23, I bought exactly the same ones. But alas .. up to 80 normal, above vibration!!! After 100 km of mileage, I drove into a tire shop, all 4 wheels are curved! They hit vertically and horizontally. Balancing is useless!! THREW IT AWAY! Bought Hankook.

Balanced to a minimum. Quiet, despite being told that they hum. Aquaplaning starts at 90 km/h. Small road irregularities are rolled over unnoticed. But this is due to the 55 profile. For the Kia Sportage 4, a 50 profile is desirable. 55 when fully turned with a lean, catch on the mudguard. But otherwise we liked them.

The price-to-quality ratio is satisfactory. Mainly city driving. On the highway 150km/h without problems, quiet. Good handling. Smooth ride on gravel.

I've been driving for 30 years with different cars and always on decent tires))). It's not an easy time due to various parameters, so I had to choose based on the product's price))). Normal tires. Installed and forgot. Didn't regret it.

Very satisfied. Price quality Super. Glad of the silence.

After two weeks of operation, two tires burst, they simply turned out... I do not recommend to anyone, you can get into a serious accident. Miraculously, we managed to keep the car on the road.
