Tires PHANTOM or OEM Honda
And, dang, they really stuffed some meaty tires on it. Hope those are production spec and it's properly geared to turn them.
Pros: meaty tires
Vehicle:
Honda
I had a paid off Honda Accord that got 27mph. The only thing it needed was tires and oil. I found it pretty funny that I was getting $3500-4000 a year in mileage reimbursement when the car was only worth $1500.
Pros: only needed tires and oil
Cons: driving that car sucked
Vehicle:
Honda Accord
I don't know if it is still relevant, but I put this Phantom on my 2020 Ridgeline, and I’m very happy. I saved at least $200. The tires were a little bit noisy in the beginning but after the first month much better ???? keep road as champ even under heavy rain. Totally recommend this tires!
Pros: keep road as champ
Cons: noisy in the beginning
Vehicle:
Honda Ridgeline
I have a 2005 with just over 75k miles. Bought 5 years ago with 19k miles. I'm averaging 19.64 mpg. Most expensive repair have been 4 new tires after 50k miles.
Pros: repairs are cheap
Cons: mpg go down
Vehicle:
Honda Element
Mileage: 120700 km
Phantoms are America's/Discount Tire own brand tire. They're a mid range tire that are for SUV's mainly but the smaller trucks like f-150, and the 1500's can run it if they are older from when they had the smaller frames. Better than the cheapest option out there, but don't expect top tier performance like, Michelin, Yokohama, and so on.
I'd recommend them if you do in city driving mainly, but they'll still be fine on highway driving. They're fine in wet weather as well. But again they arent top tier, but a decent budget tire so you don't break the bank.
Pros: decent budget tire
Cons: not top tier
Those stock tires will give you grief, they give your steering a little annoying dance the closer you hit 170kmph/100mph. Work through those tires. Swapping to something else will almost completely get rid of the wobble.
Cons: steering annoying dance, wobble
Vehicle:
Honda
Finally, check your tire date codes. Tires older than 6 or 7 years are no longer suitable for riding on, as they have lost a lot of their elasticity and therefore grip.
Pros: check date codes
Cons: lost elasticity, lost grip
Vehicle:
Honda
I used to think Honda is great until we had a CRV. It was a piece of crap. It shakes at low speed or highway speed. The dealer was so incompetent and kept asking us to replace tires, wheels all at our own cost but the problem was still there.
Cons: shakes at low speed

Honda
