Tires Continental or BRIDGESTONE
Bridgestone ecopia 300 is really quiet compared to my stock maxiss tires
People said these tires handle like garbage. I was skeptical—and yeah, they’re a bit squishy at first—but honestly, unless you’re trying to turn your grocery run into a Formula 1 race, they’re actually decent. The family has stopped complaining, which is a miracle; these tires actually soften the blow of our awful roads. Range is about the same, but the noise? Night and day. Old Contis were basically a marching band on wheels; now it’s quiet enough to enjoy the ride without wanting earplugs.
They have been fantastic, drove through huge rain storms and never felt unsafe once
I strongly recommend proper winter tires. At a minimum, at least get winter rated all weather tires. We had a lot of slushy bullshit build up today. The only reason I was able to get out of my neighborhood & make it to a Dr's appointment was because I run Blizzaks on my ND1.
Just got these to replace my OEM contis that lasted 40k miles. So far I’m loving the SRS+.
I’ve used Continental (very good), Hankook (good), Goodyear (good - worse handling in summer than Conti but excellent in winter, higher wear).
I have Bridgestones in my GTI in 17s with 215/50r17 and obviously don't feel as sporty as 19s but they're great for winter.
I had that problem when I switched from the OEM Michelins on my Model 3 to the Continental ExtremeContact DWS 06 tires; I lost about 10% range.
I swapped to 19x8.5 Atomic AW21 wheels (21.3 lbs) with Bridgestone Blizzak 6 XL 235/55R19 tires. So it is a more narrow tire. After noticing my battery percentage dropping surprisingly fast on short trips, I put on the energy app some today and see I'm now using nearly 500 Wh/mi on that same day to day driving. I expected snow tires to have worse rolling resistance, but this seems like a lot. 50% more energy usage equates to a 33% reduction in range. Does that seem normal or excessive?
Gonna get new continentals tomorrow. There is cracking in the middle as well in between the groves that's just as bad so just gonna get it replaced before snow and cold temps come.
