Have has ElectricDrive2 for a few months now and dry and wet traction is light years better than the OEM Michelins.
The Goodyears have a bit better comfort but worse tread life. Based on the tirerack reviews most people only got 30-50k miles from them. The Michelins should last 60-80k miles.
In the latest Tirerack comparisons the new Goodyears are surprisingly good and the Cross Climate 2.
I went for Hankook Synergy 4s. Good price vs performance and no issues on my Countryman.
I go with the Assurance ComfortDrive. Lower price and able to focus more on comfort vs Michelin focus on mileage. ComfortDrive is also awesome in rain which you get a lot of in Florida
Yes, I had the Hankook New Englander 205/55R16H for about 4 years on my Mazda 5, and they had just over 60k miles on them. I liked them enough to buy the same thing again. I'm in Massachusetts and they feel great in all kinds of New England weather. I do a lot of driving to work including highway and city. They are grippy in rain, snow, sleet and every combination even at highway speeds. I did get a bulge in the sidewall and kept driving them the last 5-10k or so, even though I knew better. (Don't do this even though it never popped on me.) There was still a little wear left on them, but you have to replace a tire with a bulged sidewall, so I got all 4.
I have Goodyear Forteras on my GC and like them a lot. They're very smooth on the highway.
They are ok... Nothing special. For the money you can usually do a lot better... Goodyear is not the tire company it used to be.
I have a 2023 Accord Hybrid Sport, it's currently at 19k miles. They found all 4 tires nearly worn out, the tread depth on all 4 is between 5/32 to 4/32 of an inch. I can't believe the shitty quality of tires that Honda has installed. I do drive rough but no way can the tires be this worn out at 19k miles. They use Goodyear Eagle Touring tires and apparently the quality of these is really poor.
I'd advise against the RS4 altogether. They wear super slow but they heat cycled out after 100 runs for me. The RE71RS were still competitive at 150 runs. It's a great endurance track tire if you're looking for life, but as an autocross tire it's not actually cheaper per run and it's handling manners are generally terrible for the use.
