Goodyear Eagle F1's I had them on my Volvo 850R and good good did they move water out of the way! great dry tire as well
Hankook Ventus V12 Evo Best tire I've ever had, esp. in the rain
We had Goodyear Assurance TripleTreds on our Outback - outstanding traction in rain and snow/slush.
So my Bridgestone Potenzas got slicked out (lasted 23k km) and a friend reccomended and got me a set of 225-45-XR17 Hankook RS-3 Tires... This hankook tires are rated as Semi-Slicks, and by how they perform, i agree with that... First impressions (compared with Bridgestone Potenzas 225-45-r17): Awesome handling capabilities the car feels so much more responsive and precise in both dry and wet conditions Great Braking You can feel the car generating more negative G force when you slam the brakes Really Confortable to ride and noise levels are low, plus they have a more Solid Feel in the pavement imperfections Overall Conclusions: Way Better Than Bridgestone Potenzas (same sizes and everything) and by far more affordable Definetly the tire to go with in summer conditions
I had the dealer replace the Hankooks that came with my V6 SE Passat with Michelin MXM4 94V rated tires. The difference in ride quality and handling is phenomenal!
I had the dealer swap the Hankooks that were on our new B7 to Conti ProContacts which were on a another B7 in the lot. We have about 1500 miles on car and I can honestly say the car rides quiet.....no more road noise than the B6, and no wind noise.
Goodyear Eagle GT, 235/40-18 Rides rough, not too bad noise wise, handles great on dry and wet. Gives good feedback and confidence in corners. I've got about 19k miles on them now, they still have about 30 to 40% tread left. I'm an aggressive driver.
I'm running the same tires I always have -- the ones that came stock on the car -- goodyear eagle F1s -- that I have loved forever and never had problems with...
The cheapest ones I would consider were the Hankook Ventus V-12's at $199 each, many others are closer to $400 a piece including the OEM Toyo's.
I would not buy Hankook or Kumho again, personally... not for daily-driver tires anyway.
