Tires Hankook or Goodyear

I had your predicament last year, and went with Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar 3s. Stickier than R-S4s, but last a lot longer than RT660s. I’m pretty happy with them now that the year is over. I’d definitely recommend them.

Hankook RS4s have my recommendation if you're not going to compete in sanctioned time attacks where prizes are on the line. I value tire longevity rather than saving one or two seconds per lap with a theoretical perfect racing line(not something that's bound to happen often).

Earlier this year, I picked up some Goodyear Reliant All Seasons for my MK4 (2002) Jetta GLS and I’ve been VERY pleased with them for daily driver tires. They have an “H” speed rating, stick pretty well in the turns, and Walmart had them for a shockingly low $67 a piece! Best part? Made in USA!!

If anyone wants good cheap tires, go with something reputable. I and lot of guys in my local Miata club run hankook ventus v2s. Can be had for 60-70$ per tire, and grip is very good for the price. They do wear pretty fast with hard driving but great value.

I saw good prices at ca tire for Goodyear winter command. They are pretty good tires.

Goodyear Duratrac, best off road and snow tire I ever had, and no obnoxious road noise.

I’m a fan of hankook dynapro. Quiet on the highway, but has enough tread to function in the mud.

Driving reaffirmed my decision to ditch these lazy tires. They only grab the road when they feel like it. They are a medicinal marijuana user making your bowl at Chipotle: doing a little work, spacing, doing a little more. I'll grab the road now, take a break, then grab again -- all while you're going around a single curve on a down hill slope.

I just put new Goodyears on my trailer. One of the 4 was a GY Marathon and it feels so squishy and the sidewalls just feel weak compared to the other Chinese tires so its going in the trash for sure.
