Tires Goodyear or WEST LAKE

Latest all season tires like Good year vector gen3 and Pirelli Cinturato received very good reviews, the former are the first ever tire to get a “good” by ADAC. Maybe worth a look.

I got a good deal on new Goodyear Winter Commands at end of season in the spring, so I’ll be trying those.

Right now Goodyear has a great sale

I have driven on my Goodyear Wrangler Tires purchased at Walmart under 70k miles over about 5 years, almost 6. I am not even bald.

For context I have worked in the tire industry the last 6 years. The 2 Goodyear, which are clearly your new tires, are perfectly fine.

3r is the goated non-slick tire. Rapid pace and great durability during it’s life (3 track days). The only other tires that compete in pace are the cup2R and the trofeo R.

SC3R is excellent. Very forgiving at the limit and just over the limit, easy to get heat into them and they handle heavy loads very well. Probably a better track-day tire than the RE71RS, but I can’t speak to the Nankang. Even when pretty old or near the end of the their life, they retain pretty good limit-handling characteristics, even if they do lose a little pace.

I have since transitioned to a set of Goodyear Wrangler A/Ts (275/60/20) for the past year and a half.

The best I’ve gotten was shy over 19 MPG (19.3-19.5) but average 17-18 MPG highway, same speeds 65-70 MPH.

City is around 14-16 on average.

Noticed these two splits on the sidewall of this Goodyear Assurance tire, they’re less than 4 years old, manufactured on the 39th week of 2020, it’s a 225/45R18, wondering if anyone ever had an issue like this one on such a new tire or if maybe I should watch out for someone trying to slash my tires? Contacted Goodyear about this issue just now and it’ll be getting replaced either way tomorrow

Had them on my TJ and they were deafening on the highway.
