Best Tires for Honda Element
The Toyo OpenCountry AT3 on a Honda Element were my favorite. Superior snow, mud, rain, and pavement performance.
I have those on my Honda Element and they have great traction and wear. They are super quiet and very smooth on the interstate.
I got Michelin Defender 225/65R16 and they are great tires. Got them at discount tire and they are not cheap, but worth it IMO
I run Continental TrueContact 225/70/16 now. They are stickier than the Michelins, especially in wet conditions, and I regularly get 26+ mpg in my E.
I’m running the Falken Wildpeaks 235 70R16s.
No suspension mods (my car is ALL stock except for these tires!)
I LOVE THEM.
They’re a brilliant tire, and I can’t imagine the Defenders being superior to the intended use. Basing that off extensive experience with the old LTX MS2’s, which were also great. I guess my point is **Bridgestone is making really good tires right now**.
I've been happy with General Grabber HTS60 for the last 2 years
I've had some Yokohama AVID Ascend GT's on mine for about a year and a half with no complaints.
For my 2011 Element AWD, switched from the original Goodyears to Continental Control Contact in 235/65/16 (calculated for appropriate aspect ratio). No rubbing in the wheel wells. Better ride and traction.
