Tires BRIDGESTONE or KENDA
I just installed these. Might be my imagination, but they seem to be quieter than the stock tires. The acceleration while turning seems to be better than the stock. There’s less of a slip and sticks to the ground well.
Bridgestone Sports are very good. I have Azenis on my other car and feel that they are just slightly under it in grip. Which is more than I need for street driving
Just got Bridgestone dueler a/t ascent. Very happy with them so far, pretty quiet on pavement for an all terrain tire
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 bought a set of 31 mph ***ebike rated*** Kevlar lined Kenda street tires when I converted my Yamaha mountain bike from the stock aggressive knobbies - among other mods. My use is 100% street.
I ride them hard at high speeds almost every day, take round abouts at absurd lean angles and have ZERO complaints.
I bought a set of Bridgestone Weatherpeak tires from Costco for around $700. They're three peak snowflake rated and are quiet. They do well for me in the PNW.
I just installed 4 of these at Costco this week on my 2018 Camry SE for about $750 before tax(Memorial Day sale) I’ve only driven about 50 miles this week but I think they are pretty solid. No noticeable road noise compared to my old tires (hankooks before these). The tread is huge and rated for 80k miles so these are going to last me quite a while barring any bad flats/etc.
There was about 3-4 mm of tread left on the tires when I replaced the original Bridgestone S005s (with 7,000 miles including one track day). I had a track day coming up so I wanted fresh tires but might have got a little more life if I really pushed them. I remember reading reviews on Tire Rack's website about people getting similarly short life out of them (maybe the other alternative OEM tires fare better but they're all 240 TW). I replaced the Bridgestones with Michelin PS4S (300 TW), so it will be interesting to see how they do. To be honest, on previous cars, I've never got more than about 25,000 miles our of HP or UHP all-season tires with 500-600 TW ratings so the 7,000 - 8,000 miles for these didn't surprise me.
They are garbo. I got 30k out of my turanzas before I had to get new ones. I went with the Michilin Cross Climate 2. Totally worth it.
The turanza el440 that comes standard with the Camry is trash. It has the same treadwear as summer sticky tires.
