Owner reviews for tires

We have this on our Camry ironically enough. They are pretty good tires, I think we have put about 40-50k km on it so far and it still looks to be good. Its great in the rain and decent in the snow.

This is my review of the Michelin Hydroedge tires. For those who have small SUVs, vans and mid/full-size cars this review might be helpful if you are seeking new tires for the family vehicle. They are all-season tires that ride soft, offer a long life-span, safe handling in adverse conditions and emit low road noise. The best thing about these tires besides the longevity is the rainy weather handling. Don't ask how I know...but these REFUSE to hydroplane in even several inch deep water going 40-50mph. You have almost as total control in very wet conditions as you do in dry conditions.

I ditched my 19s for the factory (Canyon) 17s on my V8. Mounted up Bridgestone Dueller A/T Revos (265/65/17) about 3K mi ago. I can't say enough good things about this tire -- second truck that we've put them on and they're doing great. Super in rain, snow, and the usual winter muck!

Recently upgraded a W8 wagon to 17 inch wheels and General Exclaim UHP Z-rated tires from Tire Rack. So far delighted. General is a Continental subsidiary, tires are mfg in Germany. Amazing level of comfort for a Z-rated tire.

I may try these next season. I'm currently on my second season with a set of Hankook W404's, and I've been very happy with them. The dry handling/performance most likely falls short of the iPike's, but I believe the W404's provide a bit more snow and ice traction, which was my main concern.

Coming back from Whistler on Thursday, a 5 hour stand still... The tires worked great on ice / snow.

I have the same tires on my Golf, we had 15\" of snow last week and the car behaved wonderfully. I only got stuck once, in my driveway because I was snow plowing. I've taken my car up to Mt. Baker a few times and was able to drive on snow and some ice.

For any of you guys looking for an inexpensive snow tire, i would strongly consider a set of these. the size i got were 195/65/15 i have not driven them in the snow yet, but i have been able to evaluate all of the other common complaints associated with inexpensive snow tires. noise: the noise on these tires is extremely minimal. they seem to produce no more noise then my sumitomo z rated summer tires. even cruising at 70 mph there is no noticable tire noise intrusion. handling: slightly squishy when pushed to their limits, but that is to be expected of a snow tire. overall, the handling feels true and confident. cruising at 70 mph there is hardly any \"floaty\" feeling that you can sometimes get. its not as planted to the road as my summer tires, but again, i didnt expect them to be. ride: these tires undoubtedly ride smoother then my summer tires. despite the aggressive treads, the softer and much larger sidewalls provide for a signifigantly smoother ride, especially over good pavement. less quirky body motions and jolts. price: the price for these was inredible. i went to a reputable tire dealer on ebay, and got them for 60 dollars per tire with shipping. it was 238 dollars shipped to my door. arrived within 3 business days. overall im very pleased. my biggest worry with these was not their snow performance. based on their aggressive treads i am very confident they will perform very well in most winter scenarios. my bigger concern was noise, dry weather handling, and ride. all of which turned out to be completely acceptable if not very good. these tires are also studdable, but i am not riding on them with studs.

I have the same problems with my p zero neros also. Right at 70 mph that steering wheel jitters. It's not bad, but somewhat irritating. I have had the tires balanced and rotated twice, but the jitter remains. It does seem to be getting better with mileage however. I must say though, these are by far the best all season performance tires I have owned.

Had the same thing happen at 1400 miles. GY replaced my tire for free because it had less than 1400 miles on it. They then sold me the tire protection plan....fast forward 15000 miles and I get 2 more bubbles.
