Specifications

Technical information

Our classification not an official manufacturer classification

Focus: Sport

With sport tyres, grip in every situation is what decides — under hard acceleration, under braking, in the dry and in the wet. Fulda SPORTCONTROL 2 belongs to this group. Stability at higher speeds and precision through corners come on top of that. One thing drivers often underestimate when buying: grip comes from a softer compound, and a softer compound wears faster. Where a standard tyre covers roughly 40,000 km, a sport tyre manages about 20,000 to 30,000 km — and considerably less with a sharper driving style or a heavier, more powerful car.

Good tire on the rear of a C-Class. No negative impact and quiet. It also looks good. Sturdy tread blocks.

I don`t recommend these tyres. I had them fitted on the car when I bought it. There is absolute lack of feedback from the tyres. You are near the limit and there is no communication. I found it very dangerous and tried it only once. I never experienced such a behavior, but I am used to premium and sporty tyres. Overall I don`t recommend them, but their might be fine for some slow city driving...

★★★★☆

Excellent tires for an acceptable price. I mostly drove premium brands, but last month I bought Fulda Sportcontrol2 on sale and they are better than I expected. Extremely quiet, excellent on dry and wet, comfortable and give a nice feeling on the steering wheel. The car is a Peugeot 607 2.2hdi 170HP and the size is 225/50r17. The price was around 400e for 4 tires. My sincere recommendation
