Tires NITTO or Kumho
Nitto G2s. I have em on my widebody
Recomand kumho Solus, sunt cu 17 lei/bucată mai scumpe de 300 dar sunt bune. Fratele meu a avut pe mașina și se comportau bine pe ploaie și pe uscat iar pe zăpadă, decent.
These are EV specific tires and do include foam padding inside. After installation, I noticed an immediate improvement in road noise. What really impressed me was the improvement in road noise during city driving and driving over bumps specifically. The Kumhos were much quieter in both areas. The ride also felt immediately smoother and more refined over the Continentals. While the tires did also reduce road noise in highway driving, the difference was not as stark as the former mentioned scenarios. I think the explanation there is that the tires can only do so much; we all know how poor the pre-highland Model 3s are in terms of sound insulation.
Again as these are EV specific tires, they were created with range in mind. With the Continentals, I averaged 230wh/mi over 40,000 miles. I've since driven 1,500 miles with the Kumho tires, and I am sitting at 218wh/mi. Not a game changer but certainly an improvement nontheless.
Overall I am very pleased with the Kumho tires.
Jack of all trades and great in wet conditions (live in Florida). They look great and are lighter than the Falkens which is what made me go with them.
They switched to the Terra Grappler G3s and said they were much quieter. I’ve been happy with them so far. They are definitely quieter than the Wildpeak A/T4s and lighter.
For your size 185/55R16, the best “cheap but not garbage” all-season I’ve found is the Kumho Solus TA31 they’re reliable in winter slush, quiet, and usually one of the lowest prices without feeling unsafe.
Second pair of Nitto A/Ts. Great off road, great longevity, smooth ride. Wet roads and wet boat ramps are deffinetly not their stong points. They do definnetly slip even on the slightest of wet weather so unfortunately I won't be buying another set.
Mid tiers. Pas tout a fait au niveau des meilleurs, mais pas mauvais non plus. Pas pour moi, je suis trop exigent, mais si tu veux pas mettre plus, c'est pas honteux.
The OEM tires are junk. I had the kumho 7's, replaced them by 25k and they weren't great even when new.
I wore out a set of Kumho Ecsta 712's on my Miata in about 7.5K miles. Of course I was sliding the rears using the throttle to steer around curves on Highway 9 in California.
