Tires Hankook or BRIDGESTONE
My 23 had the Hankook OEM tires when I bought it new and changed them with about 45K I believe and they still had tread but one had a slow leak. I consider myself an “aggressive” driver and I only rotated them once in the time. The tech that did it in the parking lot at my office said they didn’t even need rotating. The wear was very even. I went with the Michelin and they are no where near as good as the Hankook. They are worse in wet and dry traction. They howl if there is any hard braking and break loose easily on wet pavement. The Hankooks were also great in the snow (Chicago area) driving 70 miles round trip to the office and back. Very unhappy that I switched. The Hankooks seemed to start getting loud but they wore perfectly even. I will definitely be switching back when the time comes in a year or so. If the Michelins suck in the snow, I’ll bite the bullet and switch back to the Hankooks right away.
On my second set of ion evo’s. First set lasted about 65k miles. Excellent tires.
Just put these on my M3P. Much quieter than what was on it and seem to be more efficient too. More comfortable ride as well. If they last a decent bit, I’ll be very happy with them.
These all season movies should last if well maintained. I got 30.6k miles out of my summer ion evos. Had them at 42psi cold, rotated them every 5-6k miles. Commute 100 miles RT per day. 2019 M3P
These are the OEM set on my 24 LR RWD. I’ve liked them. Super quiet when new. I think the foam has separated inside one of the tires because I have a very slight vibration at highway speeds. I rotate at the recommended intervals and at 33k miles have about 5/32-6/32 left.
I’m still on my hankook ion evos — probably my favorite tires. I did notice that having them rotated every 3k miles is better than the suggested 6250 to make sure the tread is wearing evenly. I forget when exactly I got them mileage wise, but I’m still around 5-6/32nds and it’s been a year. I also floor it a ton (22 long range with boost). Not noisy.
I have these and so far they are good. I think Im at 24k miles and they are nowhere near replacement. The stock tires were around 225wh per mile and these are giving me 218wh per mile (averaged over thousands of miles) Noise is always subjective abit - tires get nosier the more they wear - so any new tires will be immediately noticeable. Im not sure I buy into the whole sound deadening material stuff.
Hankooks. Not terrible. At 12k now and the fronts probably needed to be rotated sooner. If I get another 5k out of the set that would be nice.
I suffered with Ecopia tires for 50,000 miles. Nothing but headaches. Tire wobble at high speeds never went away after numerous rebalances. Nails and screws were seemingly drawn to these tires like magnets, although they repaired well enough to drive around, my tire light was constantly informing me of more trouble. Never buying Bridgestone tires again.
Other than the lack of traction on wet or icy pavement and the incredibly fast wear on the front tires, I cannot complain about getting worse fuel economy or road noise.
