Tires NITTO or Goodyear
Nitto Neo Gens are good performance and on road tire.
Finally upgraded from the stock tires to a set of Nitto Terra Grappler G3’s 265/60R20. Been quiet on highway and still look aggressive. I’ve only had them for a short time but impressed already for what I was looking for.
Agree on the Goodyears. I have them on my Subaru Legacy, really improved the handling. Quicker turn in, quiet and smooth.
I wouldn\u2019t hesitate to buy the Goodyear MaxLife 2. I\u2019ve had great luck with the top of the line Goodyear tires
Switched out my old Michelin sport tires with these Goodyear, EV tires and my car cabin noise has reduced by 90% of believe it or not. Feels like a new car.
I settled on the nitto neo gens. Great for the price. The indy500 seems like a great option to
I drove the Vector gen3 for two winters just because they came almost brand new with my car. I am a very calm and mindful driver and my suv is 150hp (awd) and top speed 170 km/h, so the performance never felt lacking , including druring blizzards and on shiny slippery ice. That's with my driving style and without mountains, mostly flat roads. But I feel that if you constantly push them to the limit, you may get mixed results. Especially on compacted snow with frozen tire tracks, it can be quite unsettling experience. I think the excellent awd made it feel sufficient, but I never felt completely stable and completely safe. All-seasons are usually a bearable compromise and aren't excellent at anything. This Goodyear felt rather solid and just the fact I could drive in 40C and highway speeds, and in -15C in snow is very impressive. BUT at only 3 years old they were already dry rotting and all cracked, to the point one started leaking through the sidewall. Tread wear was also very rapid. The Goodyear had so much noise, including some vibrations and even a loud roar at high(er) speed. I honestly thought it might be my rear diff indicating it wants an oil change. I didn't know it was all just from the tires. Now I only hear some slight wind and nothing else. I guess the all-season compound baked during the summer and lost its qualities, just as the winter compound would.
We moved to a new set of Goodyear Comfortdrive's and immediately dropped 0.4mi/kwh efficiency (which has stayed consistent over the 700 miles that we've put on them). That is to say, our 'new normal' is 3.6mi/kwh.
I had cupped Nittos on my ‘20 Pro and as soon as I replaced them… the 55-60mph steering wheel shake was gone.
I had Ultragrip Performance G1s on my Kia and they were a pretty bad experience noise-wise, so I'm hesitant to go with Goodyear again.
