Tires Continental or IRONMAN
My Car ( Honda City 4th Gen 2022) came with Goodyear Assurance 175 65 15 they lasted for 30K km from those, switched to Continental UC6 195 60 R15. Most of my driving are on good roads and highways , did Delhi to Ahmedabad post upgrade, really loved the ride comfort and how overall tyre noise got reduced, also car started gliding over small potholes and bumps effortlessly. I was also considering Yokohama Blue Earth GT but couldn\u2019t find it easily in the size I required.
My Polo came with Apollo, worked okay and lasted till 35k. Replaced them with continental uc6 and man it makes alot of difference, be it noise, comfort or grip. Been using for last 15k and looks almost new without a single puncture.
For smaller cars Continental UC6 is a perfect blend of grip and comfort
I had MRF Wanderer Street as stock tyres on my Kia Sonet, changed in 2k kms- way too hard and noisy, not that good grip in wet, very durable. Not that great, find them very overrated.
Changed to Continental UltraContact 6, used for 30k kms- very good grip in dry and wet, low noise, not very durable. Highly recommended.
My car came with MRF Wanderers out of the showroom. Used them for 42K km. Then switched to Continental UC6 (same size). I’ve driven the continentals in the rains and the grip on offer is phenomenal. The ride quality, grip and braking are much better than the wanderers.
Switched from Apollos to Continental UC6s on the tire shop guy’s recommendation 3 years ago (had originally planned to shift to Yokohama Earth1) and honestly I ain’t shifting to anything else ever again. Minimal tire noise, better comfort and never felt a lack of grip even though I turn like an idiot at super high speeds some times.
The OEM tire is extreamly good! The first batch of BYD seal comes with Continential SC7. Its performance is close to PS4 and better than PS4 on wet days. I strongly recommend it. Though it costs more and tread wear fast, still worth it!
Same here. I’ve gone back to the Conti’s on my R after running the AS4’s. Outstanding all-around tire.
Continental was a hit and miss for me. One set was great, then four years later the next generation of the same line was rubbish.
I too just replaced half worn ironman tires with dws's on a car I just bought. Wet grip on the ironman was some of the worst I'd ever experienced on a tire with tread still on it.
