my Yaris came with H-rated Goodyear Assurance FuelMax tires. They aren't terribly sporty but the handling is competent, they're very quiet, ride well, do well in the wet and -- despite my best efforts -- seem to be very slow wearing. The car also gets 3-4 more MPG than our '11 Yaris which has an identical powertrain but normal tires (horrible Bridgestone RE92s).
Owner reviews for tires
Just got these for my commuter and love them. I know of others that purchased them and were really happy plus the rebate they have.
I ran those Kumhos on the Volvo 850 Turbo I had, I liked them a lot. The only downside was being that the car was heavy, you could feel the sidewall flex in hard cornering, then again they are a sport all season and not a true summer tire so I think they fit the bill nicely.
I like my Kumho's 205/45/16's, I have about 15,000 mi. on them, still alot of meat. There 2 yrs. old still looks new. They cost me $125 per tire.
I love my Falkens. Pretty quiet, no hydroplaning and cheap! Pretty decent grip in wet and dry. Terrible in snow. And They seem to be a very soft rubber that wears a little quick.
look into lightweight battery (I run a Braille 21lbs in my Nismo) and tires...the Michelin Pilot SuperSports are pretty lightweight.
And yet another vote for the Conti DW. I run them on the FR-S and I'm very happy with them.
I had the General Altimax HP's on my X3 and they were a way better than the Conti's they replaced. Every set of Conti's I've ever had make way too much noise. :thumbup::thumbup: on the General's
I got a set on some wheels I traded. I think NS7000 is on the sidewall. They are alright, they are round and black. I haven't had a flat and I go into the uber crappy Boston roads all the time, no bubbles no tread defects. They are just run of the mill budget tires. Would I get them again? Probably not. Can I find anything to complain about? Not really.
I am not happy with the quality of the Dunlop tires and I feel they should replace all the tires with a better reinforced sidewall in order to avoid the problem from resurfacing.
