Tires Nexen or BRIDGESTONE
I drive a 3rd generation Honda CRV. Yung stock tires niya Bridgestone Dueler, makapit and matagal mapudpod.
My Bridgestones got 60k. Now I have Michelin defenders. Much better ride and in the snow.
I love my nexen nprix 8. Going to get another set soon.
bridgestone. my old stock tires last for 4 1/2 years before I bought new set 4 months ago. i drove different car with different brand of tires. sa kapit niya sa kalsada mas okay para sa akin. kahit dinadaan ko sa mga mabato or maputik okay naman siya. mas gusto ko lang talaga kapag nagcorner ako hindi bumibitaw yon gulong sa pagliko unlike doon sa iba na mararamdaman mo ss manibela na parang hindi ka na nakaposition doon sa linya.
I'm running a used set of bridgestone re71rs's (also 205/50/15) this year and oh my lord they are so much better even if they are used and heat cycled out. Makes my slow fwd car far better than the 615s could've ever dreamed of.
Bridgestone. Awsome performance and puncture resistance.
I have been a big fan of Nexen tires for some time... Sent two kids to college on them in the Dakotas where conditions can be less than ideal. And we have used their winter tires, performance tires, and truck tires as well and I can say I don't really have any negatives to say for the price... They are solid, budget tires in the same league as Cooper, General, Falken, and Yokohama... They are not Michelins or Bridgestones, but they don't try to be either.
I’ve driven a wide variety of winter tires. Bridgestone, GoodYear, Firestone, Cooper, Michelin, Continental, and one or two others. Some were quieter, some were better on ice, some were better in deep snow. None were terrible. If you go with major brand names, that are not much over 5 years old, you should be ok.
Honestly I think it's bad business for Bridgestone to ship such crap tires on this vehicle, since it's turned me off from buying any Bridgestone tire in the future.
Late to the party here, but just got 2 blowouts this morning with these bridgestones in my mazda 3 turbo hatch.
