Tires OEM Chevrolet or RIKEN

I have a Chevy Cruze as my winter beater (with winter tires) and it\u2019s does awesome. Got me home in a blizzard last year where the highways had about 8 inches of snow on them.

Bolts tend to eat through tires faster than my other cars, but that may be because it's fun to drive, so I accelerate and corner a little faster than I do in other cars. But this is a complaint that I hear from a lot of other EV drivers too.

Drove a Chevy Cavalier my entire apprenticeship. Good on gas, easy to park, sure footed with Snow Tires.

Want a real out there suggestion. The 2017 Chevy Bolt EV. Kind of a rare car. But my dad had one and it was an absolute blast. 200 hp and 266 ft/lb torque that was *instantly* available made the car way faster than you would have ever guessed. Once you ditched the terrible economy tires on it, it handled incredibly well because all the weight was way down low. It was also really well balanced because, while front wheel drive, most of the weight was in the middle - so it didn't really act like a typical front wheel drive car.

when I bought my car in 2020 with \~27,000 miles on it, I replaced the cabin air filter, wiper blades, and all 4 tires immediately upon purchase because they all needed it.

My experience is briefer: 3 years with a Bolt EUV. I bring it in for tire rotations and maintenance wise that’s pretty much it.

I have some rikens as my non-race tires for the c4. They're fine.

My “RíKEN RAPTOR” tires sound pretty… well I think about my driving on cooler temp roads with corners or any moisture.

I’ve been running Riken Raptor ZR A/S tires since I got my WRX just over a year ago and FINALLY got my hands on a set of Blizzaks. I’m excited to see how they handle any future snows here in Colorado Springs. We just had a good bit of snow dumped on us this past week and the all seasons were definitely showing signs of needing replacement.

1600 miles on my car. Daughter drove down a road being repaired and apparently some of the rough road gouged the inner sidewall of the left rear. The construction is just a mile away. She arrived home and I received a low tire alert. An hour later tire was completely flat at 6 psi. The tire was peeled back in three places. Self sealing did nothing.
