Got the Toyos a couple months ago. I'm averaging 4.0 km/kWh (2.5 mi/kWh), so it seems like they're pretty efficient!
Owner reviews for tires
True that, I also had Alnac 4G tyres then changed to Yokohama Blue Earth they offered great performance however the noise suppression wasn't much, slightly better if only, but they offered really good grip.
Now changed to Bridgestone Turanza 6i and they are extremely silent, no noise at all, wind noise is audible only after crossing 80kmph. Although grip was they are more or less same as Yokohama Bluearth.
But these are expensive paid 11.5k for each tyre - 205/55/16 size.
I have a set of Yokohama S drives on my Swift 2005. They are serving me well, good dry as well as wet grip.
UC6 is by far the best I’ve experienced when compared to Michelin XM1 , CEAT and JKTyres, Continentals are just smooth throughout
Yeh the UC6 is amazing. My car came with ceat securadrive. It got a sidewall bubble at 22k. Changed to UC6 and the change was mind-blowing. Just yesterday I was driving in the rain at 60-70 not breaking a sweat. Also got turtle wax clearvue rain coating. Can't recommend these enough. Tried to get conti for WagonR and Ignis as well but weren't in stock at my preferred shop, so went with Bridgestone sturdo, they're also good for the price.
The Brezza came with Apollo Alnac 4G tires from the factory. Apollo's were a good set of tires; they had decent grip, road noise wasn't bad, and even at 49,000 kilometers, they had about 5,000 kilometers left. Anyway, I decided to change them since I could see hairline cracks appearing, plus monsoon season here in Kerala means it's better to have a good pair of tires.
Long story short, after extensive research, I got Continental UC6 215/60-16 tires. I paid a total of 34,800 rupees, including four tires, balancing, alignment, and valves. The tires were 8,150 rupees each. I didn't feel a lot of difference in the first 150 kilometers, but after that, I noticed some major differences compared to the Apollos.
* Road trip: These tires stick to the road like leeches. Wet grip is unbelievably good. You can take a turn at 90 kmph on wet highways, and the car won't break a sweat. I never had that kind of confidence before.
* Braking: Stopping power has improved significantly. Both wet and dry grip are excellent.
* Ride quality: Improved by leaps and bounds. Small imperfections on the road are dismissed. Expansion joints on the highways are hardly felt in the cabin.
* Road noise : These tires are silent. At 120 kmph, all you hear is wind and engine noise. 0 noise from the tires. Apollo's use to get loud post 90kmph.
If you are looking for a tire change, i highly recommend Continentals. You would hardly pay 10-15% more then Indian tires but the benefits are significant .
Nas últimas vezes que tenho comprado pneus (os pneus que tenho tido preferência são os Goodyear Efficientgrip Performance 2) tem ficado mais barato comprar e montar numa Norauto, confio neles o suficiente para trocar lá os pneus.
Bridgestone Alenza Ultra’s for me. Michelin defenders wear out too fast for some reason and I don’t have a heavy foot. While the Crossclimate tires are awesome, they impact MPG too much.
most of the tires coined as "China Bombs" are the Westlake tires...
The BF Goodrich MT/TA 255/75 R17 are the original tires on my JEEP Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon Hard Rock which has only 24,000 easy miles on it. I have never been off road. At 24k miles they are badly worn and cupping and the noise has become unbearable.
