Tires MRF or OEM Subaru

OEM Subaru Tires

Over the last 2200 miles (3540km) since I put my snows on, I've averaged 26.4mpg, or 8.9l/100km. At least half of those miles are in decent storms. I don't know how people get such horrible mileage in these cars- mine gets better than any previous Subaru I've owned, while going a hell of a lot faster.

Pros: better than previous Subaru
Cons: horrible mileage for others
Vehicle: Subaru
Mileage: 3540 km

Well I have a 24 Limited with the 20s and live 2 miles up a dirt road. The tires are fine to me. I have an outback and tundra with 18s and don't notice much difference.

Pros: tires are fine
Cons: dust pools in door wells
Vehicle: Subaru

We had a similar situation with kia ev. The left front tyre at night got punctured (sharp cut, we suspect it was due to impact of the pothole) due to a massive pothole in National highway that was invisible at night. The tyre went flat in 5 seconds.

Last week I got a flat tyre on my back from the office and found that this tyre on my 2-month-old Suzuki Fronx (Aug 2025 model) is no more usable. Found a chipped off thread grip on the driver's side tyre, which resulted in low pressure. Due to driving at that pressure, the side liner developed cracks, losing its pressure holding capacity. Commonly, it is a clear case of prolonged low-pressure driving. However, in my case, since the tyre always looked low on pressure, I made sure to check the tyre pressure at every gas station while refueling. Now I am running on a spare tyre and wondering if I should go for the same tyre (MRF Wanderer 195/60 R16) or another brand.

Pros: tyre looked low on pressure
Cons: chipped off thread grip, side liner cracks
Vehicle: Suzuki

The fucking console rattles like a mother fucker. The stock tires are pieces of shit. The clutch pedal will make noise when it is cold because they used shitty spot welds on the pedal assembly. The ac compressor will probably fail within 50k miles.

Cons: console rattles, stock tires shit
