Tires BRIDGESTONE or Kormoran

The Alenza is way better than the ecopia tires. Go with those.

I have Ecopia. Drive is comfortable and the tire lasted.

I have the HL alenza plus and they have been great

I just replaced my Mazama Reputations with these awesome tires. My car is a 2017 Jeep Cherokee High Altitude 4x4. These tires are grippy, have good response characteristics with good road feel. The Mazamas were a very rough ride in comparison. This Jeep feels like a luxury ride now. Not feeling all the little bumps and road jarring. Just smooth, quiet and grippy. I'm impressed. It's like driving a new car.

I worked for Bridgestone before. They make decent tires. Indy 500 and Destination lineups are great tires.

The only reason I avoid recommending Bridgestone Blizzaks is that while they are an absolutely incredible preforming tire, the softness of the tire wears out quickly and they tend to have a higher ticket price.

I've been very happy with the Blizzaks on my R.

I have the original 20” Bridgestones on my 21, with about 20k miles. Should be good for another 5k or so. Not great tires, but fairly typical OEM tires for me.

My BridgestonePotenza S001 has 12k miles with 6/32 of tread depth. Likely, they grip marginally better than new but I don't have high expectations from this tire anymore. Nevertheless, I did expect a transformation from wider summer tire, coming from horrendous BridgestoneECOPIA EP422 PLUS .

Here's the 18" Cadiz wheels that came off 2015 Golf R. Stock 16" Astana wheels are beyond hideous, they are also heavy (e.g. 21 lbs.). As soon as you mount any sticky tires, irrelevant of size, your range will decrease by ~10%. The sole purpose of low resistance Bridgestone Ecopia EP422 Plus tires is to float due to super firm carcass. These tires are terrible in dry and scary in wet.
