Tires Firestone or Sailun
Yeah, I have 20k with these on my Mazda6 and I wouldn't say they're unresponsive. In fact I would say they're quite responsive in that they like to track in the direction you're turning, so the car gets encouraged to dive into turns. One thing I have noticed is that they feel much more dead if you let them get low. Keep them at 36psi.
I’m glad the series asked Firestone for a bigger differential in pace between the reds and blacks. A lot of the time last year it seemed largely negligible.
I managed to get her setup with some Firestone all seasons, with hazard warranty for 600 out the door at a Firestone auto center.
Yes, Ive been using Sailum ERange and I’ve noticed a significant increase in range. Averaging 230W/mi from 290W/mi on 19in.
My buddy has it on his Y and happy with it an doesn’t notice any difference with the original tires.
1 year on these Sailun tires. They work fine. I've driven the same routes on both sets. Multiple road trips from Los Angeles to Phoenix AZ. Lots of city and freeway driving in So cal. From the driver's seat I haven't been able to tell the difference.
They are absolutely fantastic and well worth the price. They perform better than other name brand winter tires I've had.
I put a set of 21" ERange on my Model Y over the summer just to try them out, almost as a joke. They are ever so slightly louder than the stock Michelins. But they are more efficient, just barely. There's a droning resonance around 58-62mph as well.
I would recommend just outright avoiding Firestone. Aside from Firestone tires being garbage (except the Transforce line)
Mine are now just under 9k wear and have become noisey AF. Not to mention they seem to grip less and less as they get used. On a 2015 GTI and I have the car aligned twice a year with winter/summer seasons tire swaps. New they were awesome.
