Tires Hankook or Goodyear
Seriously though, I hope an FE team bites the bullet and does a lap or two on modified slick tyres. Those cars are quite fast on that Hankook Tyre, and could be even faster on the slicks.
I bought eagle sport exhilarates mostly because $150 off and a $100 rebate at the time, and I really noticed the performance and they removed my issue with wheelhop on my stock Si.
I have MY7 long range also, and have already put 33k miles on the stock tires. I have only rotated them once. I still have about 5/32 on mine. It all depends on how hard you drive the car too. Edit: for context, forgot to mention they are Goodyear and I have the 20 inch wheels.
I got 30,000 miles out of mine (Continentals on 19" Gemini wheels on a MYP.) I replaced them with Hankook iON evo suv. Amazing tires.
Hancook great performance, better than stock and 3 times cheaper
A couple of months ago I put new Goodyear Electric Drive tires on my 2019 Leaf SV + and so far been very happy with them. I think the efficiency has actually gone up about 5-10%.
Typically I don't like Goodyear tires but my Duratracs have been a great AT tire. Zero complaints.
If your car feels like it’s bouncing/bobbing sideways (I’m guessing that’s what you mean by “bubbling”), it’s probably due to the softer material used on the winter tires. I’m running a set of Goodyear Assurance WeatherReady and they show the same behavior. The effect will less noticeable eventually as the tire passes the break-in period.
Just replaced the stock Hankook's on our 2016 after only 20,000 miles. Granted mostly around town miles but damn they wore quickly.
My experience with Goodyear is that they are trash.
