vs
Tires IRONMAN or OEM Honda
I'm a City owner, and the OEM tires were terrible and noisy. Since switching to UC6s, I have zero complaints.
Pros: zero complaints
Cons: terrible and noisy
Vehicle:
Honda City
my biggest complaint, and probably my only real one, is the road noise. The interior can be pretty loud, especially on the freeway. I’m fairly confident that most of this comes down to the stock tires, because otherwise the car feels tight and well put together.
Pros: car feels tight
Cons: interior pretty loud
Vehicle:
Honda Civic
Mileage: 30000 km
I'm in ironman gen 2 from tire discounters all 4, i got all the tires and the mount and a alignment and balancing for like 400$ bucks with the deal they run. And a free oil change. But the ironmans have done me well they did good in rain and snow and i haven't exactly been nice to them, handled potholes too.
Pros: good in rain and snow
Usually it is recommended to replace the tyre for puncture on the shoulder or the sidewall but it is a very small nail. Personally I would get it repaired and move it to the rear.
Pros: small nail, get it repaired
Vehicle:
Honda City
Throw some studded tires on and you’ll be fine. I made it back to Saskatchewan after a blizzard in Banff Alberta where it snowed 10” of slush. It was a slow drive dragging through the snow.
Pros: studded tires, keeps going
Cons: slow drive, dragging through snow
Vehicle:
Honda
Ironman and milemaker are the last two sets and they lasted about 75% of what a premium brand would.
Cons: shorter lifespan
All that carbon fiber to make it light and easy to flick into corners - yet bro's never been past 15° lean. Waste of good rubber.
Pros: light and easy to flick
Cons: waste of good rubber
Vehicle:
Honda
Ironman is a value line. They are not awful, also not outstanding. Wet traction and winter traction are not gonna be their strength.
Cons: poor wet, winter traction
My little Honda Fit is so light that even with good snow tires I can't get anywhere if the roads are slick.
Pros: good snow tires
Cons: can't get anywhere
Vehicle:
Honda Fit
This tire is new Iron Man. This is the second chunk missing; the other tire was replaced under warranty. It’s new, maybe 2 months old.
Cons: chunks missing, warranty replacement
