Tires OEM Chevrolet or SUMITOMO
Shockingly fantastic in winter slop. I was expecting them to be bad compared to my Sumitomos. Nope. Even better in slop. 100% recommended. Great in the dry with very low noise and super highway tracking. Finally found the grail of cheap and awesome.
Sumitomo is a fantastic tire. I run their summer tires all year around ( In Texas, heavy sedan ) very stable at 85 mph+, quiet and stay planted.
Sumitomo tires wildly out perform their price tag. Have had them on a bunch of cars over the years and have never been unhappy about it.
I personally have sumitomo and I really like them. Good traction. Good for regular road driving or mountain driving and all weather. A little bit pricier, but I feel the quality is worth it.
Sumitomo wt200, vozio kroz 4 države po autoputu po snegu bez problema, ništa proklizavanje, ništa šlajfovanje. Jedino zanosi malo po parkingu gde nije ništa čišćeno i pretvorilo se u bljuzgavicu.
troquei os dois pneus dianteiros que eram os que estavam mais deformados e o problema foi resolvido, mas agora vou tentar entrar em contato com a loja que eu comprei pra ver se a garantia consegue me ajudar de alguma forma
Previously, Sumitomo P03 that I got rid of at 35k because LOUD. Otherwise durable and great in snow. A little unsettled at speed.
Having gone from a WRX to a Chevy bolt, it is a very different experience. The WRX was a thousand times more fun. The turbo constantly begged you to go faster. It cornered flat and came with super sticky tires so you could go around a corner at a crazy speed. The bolt has solid straight line acceleration, but low rolling resistance tires make it much less fun, and slower in a lap around a track.
This Tire Brand Has The Lowest Customer Satisfaction Rating, according to Consumer Reports
This probably won't be an issue for a 2018, but the spec tires that it comes with don't have good traction and provide a rougher ride.
