Sounds great. Make sure the tires are not more than 6 years old.
I have a Chevy Cruze as my winter beater (with winter tires) and it\u2019s does awesome. Got me home in a blizzard last year where the highways had about 8 inches of snow on them.
There is such a notion as touring/comfort tires. They are not sporty at all, their advantage is in the ride quality compared to sportiness. And the prices are usually lower.
Bolts tend to eat through tires faster than my other cars, but that may be because it's fun to drive, so I accelerate and corner a little faster than I do in other cars. But this is a complaint that I hear from a lot of other EV drivers too.
I drive a 2006 Toyota Camry. Not the best on gas, but it handles winter roads well and is comfortable. I like Uniroyal Tiger Paw all season tires.
General Tire, Kumho, Dunlop, Uniroyal are also decent.
Consumer reports says:
Pros: Solid performance in the areas of dry braking, handling, hydroplaning resistance. Solid treadlife performance also.
Cons: Just average rolling resistance performance which can have a negative impact on vehicle fuel efficiency.
Having gone from a WRX to a Chevy bolt, it is a very different experience. The WRX was a thousand times more fun. The turbo constantly begged you to go faster. It cornered flat and came with super sticky tires so you could go around a corner at a crazy speed. The bolt has solid straight line acceleration, but low rolling resistance tires make it much less fun, and slower in a lap around a track.
This probably won't be an issue for a 2018, but the spec tires that it comes with don't have good traction and provide a rougher ride.
2012 Kia Sedona, just got 4 new tires installed at BJs warehouse. Uniroyal Tiger Paws Touring 235/60 R17. Mounted and balanced by them.
Why do they look squished? Like the sidewalls are collapsing? They are inflated to 34psi. They track straight, but not a smooth ride.
