But I’m a major fan of American elite 4’s. They came on the new bike and I’ve put 10k on them in the last 3 months and they haven’t aged a bit.
If anyone wants good cheap tires, go with something reputable. I and lot of guys in my local Miata club run hankook ventus v2s. Can be had for 60-70$ per tire, and grip is very good for the price. They do wear pretty fast with hard driving but great value.
I’m a fan of hankook dynapro. Quiet on the highway, but has enough tread to function in the mud.
Nexen, riken (made by Michelins), Hankook are all budget friendly made by good brands.
The Hankook Kinergy 4S2 is an all-weather tire with the Three Peak Mountain Snowflake (3PMSF) symbol. Not only that, but it is an exceptionally good tire, with not only excellent snow and ice traction, but excellent dry and wet too.
There are Hankook RS4s, and then there are all other tires that cost more, need to be replaced more often, and are slightly faster. Best bang for the buck tire, I'm on my fifth set.
I use Hankook RS4s because endurance 200TW tires are cost effective. I can run them on my VN for at least an entire season and then some. It's gotten a bit chilly and there so the grip in colder weather is lacking if you're pushing it.
My 2017 Beetle S came with the tires specified immediately below...Hankook Kinergy GT...Originally, tire wear appeared to be proceeding well...After the 16,000 mile service...I noticed the centers of two tires...to have lost the siping \u2013 classic over-inflation indicator...Recently at 19,000 miles I noted the front tires...had lost the center siping \u2013 again signifying over-inflation...I am not particularly surprised at the center wear as I think a load index of 95 is fairly high for this vehicle...I cannot imagine 60,000 miles for these tires.
These tires are not great. My GTI I bought had them on and I’m just riding them out. This will be their last season. They’ve been loud the entire time I’ve had them and aren’t great on any road condition.
At the 30,000 mile oil change, my dealer told me my tires were bald. They are the Hankook GT tires EX 235/60R18.
I went online that minute and checked to see for how many miles the Hankook GTs EX 235/60R18 were rated for, and they are rated for 75,000.
