Tires Hankook or BRIDGESTONE
I’ve had both and the biggest difference I saw was the range hit. I was the sole driver so no difference in driving style - MPS AS4’s were 10% worse. Loved them but would go with the Hankooks were I to do it again.
The Hankooks are slightly softer absorbing a smidge more of the road. Noise difference between the 2 isn't noticeable at all. The Hankooks are slightly more efficient, lifetime on the Michelins is 306whm and the Hankooks are 297whm(tracked via TeslaMate).
Big fan of my Bridgestone Turanza AS 6’s.
Never had any rear end slippage in either of my BMWs, even when taking corners a *bit* too hard in rain/sleet
So my OEM Hankook tires, inflated normally to 40psi were wearing down on the edges of the tire. The look of the tire is amazing. Completely changes the look of the truck. The tires didn’t have any more appreciable noise - I listened intently at 40 mph and might have heard a bit more
With about 28,000 miles on my 2022 SEL AWD, it was time to replace the the Michelin's. I picked the Ions because it seemed like Hankook did their homework in terms of designing a tire with range and longevity considerations. Initial thoughts:
-VERY QUIET. These are somehow substantially quieter than the OEM wheels. Noise from bumps and rough roads are somehow soaked up as well. I'm impressed.
-Smooth and planted. Rolling on these at moderate speeds feels like floating on a cloud. Steering and acceleration/braking felt great too, no issues feeling like there's no grip.
-Didn't have too much rain experience, but it seemed to handle wet conditions fine, about the same as OEM.
-One con I noticed: These have a foam lining on the inside.
Tenho Bridgestone Turanza no meu e aquilo agarra que se dana (mas também tenho 225 à frente e 255 atrás).Fica a recomendação!
Depois de muita pesquisa em relação qualidade preço escolhi os Hankook Ventus Prime 3 K125.
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.
Finally got rid of them. They slide in the lightest snow. They also only lasted me 35k miles.
Have had my CX-30 through one Minnesota winter thus far on the stock Turanzas. Got through fine, but the car was also only about 4-5 months old at that time. I have already noticed some issues going into my second winter, one semi snowy day where nothing accumulated and I was sliding through roundabouts and was a little nervous about going around bends in the road.
