Tires Pirelli or BRIDGESTONE
I picked up a set of s22 while bridgestone was having their rebate deal, I'm going to have them put on after my next track day.
I love the Oem Bridgestone Dualers. Great MPG and mileage.
Put them on my parent’s 09 CR-V in the winter of 2020. Compared to the Michelin Premiers that were on prior, the Quiettracks were slightly louder and firmer, which makes sense since they’re 80k vs 60k. Overall though, they’re still decently quiet, round corners super well, and have handled all conditions. Parents drove in a snowstorm in Michigan with those tires and the they felt good the whole time.
I’ve used the S22s on my ‘19 ZX6R upto mid intermediate pace. Even though visually, your tire looks surprisingly good for 6 trackdays, I would err on the side of caution and go with fresh tires. You could still do fresh S22, they don’t tend to fall off a cliff (at least in my opinion) unlike some Dunlops.
Yep, had to replace mine last year. I was fortunate, caught a sale here locally and spent right at $3,000 installed. Bridgestone Ecopia 268, size 245/75R 22.5. On a 2006 Tiffin Allegro Bay.
At the end (last quarter of life) you can feel the grip slowly decreasing (mostly with the rear tire), but they're not becoming vicious at any moment.
I changed them at this moment because I was moving to the advanced group, but they're awesome tires : great mileage, great performance on the road (if you need more on the streets you're a criminal ????) and still good when it's cold or raining (not as good as the T32, but still very acceptable).
My 2014 Passat SE w/roof came with Conti's 63,000 miles. First replacement set were Pirelli Cinturano P7 all season plus. Great tires, except in wet conditions.
Had them on a Camaro SS a few years ago. Only snow tires I've ever used so I can't compare them to anything. I wasn't impressed, they weren't terrible but I expected more in deep snow. No complaints on dry or wet pavement.
Not sure about the Vredesteins, but I will say that I hate Pirellis. No issues with wear or performance, but they are unbelievably noisy after about 20k miles. I probably could have gotten another 10k out of them, but replaced them due to the noise.
I have found it quite hard to predict, but Bridgestone were extremely noisy for me. Then I had Michelin which were slightly quieter but still didn't satisfy me completely.
