I got Goodyear ElectricDrive 2 tires; so far so good, they seem reasonably quiet, don’t affect efficiency, and are cheaper than OEM.
I like my cc2s for traction in general. Although I have done some stupid shit on the snow with those tires.
Uniroyal tiger paw. Barely hit m/kwh, nice grip.
Continental truecontact tour. There's a newer version but as I understand it it's essentially the same tire. Much better handling in the rain. They were slightly noisy at first but I don't notice it anymore, that was probably just from the breakin period.
I swapped wheels for 16's and I think my fuel efficiency overall is about the same as before. City fuel economy may be slightly better because of lower wheel weight, highway economy slightly worse due to drag from less aero rims. But I'm not sure if there's really any difference.
Goodyear assurance comfort drive.
Love’m!
I purchased Pirelli P7 All Season from Tire Rack.
Very pleased with them.
I went off the menu. Got some 225/50/17 goodyear assurance maxlife "non weather ready's". Its like glue now. They are LRR and 85k rated tires. And since they are not weather ready, they have better wet and dont get as angry as the wear vs the more agressive weather ready's. So far i have noticed a well under 10% range loss. My 80% limit went from an est 205 to and est 197 after 2 weeks of driving in about the same weather.
Michelin Cross Climate 2s. The small range hit is worth the confidence in rain and snow. That said, the CC2s are still incredible in wet. I still strongly suggest them. They do good in snow but you don't have to use them for it.
We moved to a new set of Goodyear Comfortdrive's and immediately dropped 0.4mi/kwh efficiency (which has stayed consistent over the 700 miles that we've put on them). That is to say, our 'new normal' is 3.6mi/kwh.
The OEM tires - Michelin EnergySaver AS - are great for efficiency and pretty bad for everything else. Went through two sets, and both were consistently bad in rain and snow. One of the tires on the second set got ripped on the *sidewall* as it hit a pothole, and I found out later that the sidewalls were indeed a bit of weakness for them.
