Passenger Car Summer Premium Touring Tyres Tyre Review Highlights
I'm already on my second set and I'm very satisfied. I bought them for $95 a piece, and the value for money is unbeatable. They are completely safe even at 110 km/h in pouring rain, there's not even a hint of aquaplaning at this speed, despite water runoffs, etc.<br />
<br />
I definitely recommend the set. Sure, there are probably better ones out there, but for this price, its a no brainer..

I looked for silent tyres, but they are far away from my expectations. They are much louder than my Hankook Winter i*cept iON X (IW01A). Acceptable noise at 90 km/h, but loud on Lithuanian highways at 130 km/h. Maybe it is just the car with weak insulation. The driving properties in contrast are fine, comfort is good. I drove on rainy highway at 130 km/h without problems.

These tyres are the best summer I have ever driven. And far better tha k KC2000 that was previously on my car

T005 was originally mounted on Opel Insignia B. After 5 years on car and 35000km drive and it’s time to replace them. Well, these tyre is like love-hate relationship. T005 has strong and weak sides. Top highlight these tyre is fuel consumption - really low, even 0,5 liters lower as wintercontact 870 in long term statistic, some routes I could reach 4.5 l/100km with 200hp on 40km long journey.<br />
<br />
Pros:<br />
Fuel consumption<br />
Dry grip<br />
<br />
Cons:<br />
Too loud- bad annoying noise no matter of pressure/speed<br />
Weak wet grip/handling<br />
average steering response<br />
<br />
In my opinion I would not recommend this tyre because it,s not all rounded wheel but primarily focused on low rolling resistance.

They replaced the pc7, hoping for better efficiency.. fuel consumption is reduced by almost 8% ..on dry tarmac is great, but you need to be a little bit careful on the wet.. very low noise, although sx4 hasn't much of isolation

Well, well, well,<br />
Finally, I decided to change out my 7-year-old T005s. As you probably have read, I had previously fitted the T005 in many, many, many vehicles, sizes, and dimensions, as well as the T6s in 18inches.<br />
<br />
I've driven the PC7s for around 160km now, and I can give you my initial impressions.<br />
Dry and wet grip is supreme. Sadly, I can't compare them to brand new T005s, but I can tell you they are T6 level and above.<br />
<br />
The tires are very, very much touring optimised, meaning that off-centre response, the first 10 or so degrees of wheel input, is very soft. Meaning that center weighting of the steering wheel is low, and the tires feel very progressive. <br />
<br />
Even more progressive than the arguably softer sidewalled T005s.<br />
The same type of progressivity also applies when loaded mid-corner, and you ask for more load, the front end loads up progressively, while the T005s load a bit more regressively, or let's say linearly. <br />
<br />
In fact, although the softer T005 sidewall led to lower steering accuracy, the changes in steering input were consistently damped. The PC7 is null -> null -> load up and turn.<br />
<br />
This is something I don't really like as it causes a snake-like behavior between the front and rear end of the vehicle, although when highly loaded up, they do feel sharper than the T005, but in transient average load conditions, they feel much more progressive.<br />
<br />
They seem like tires that like higher pressures; my 30/26 psi F/R, which was the sweet spot for my T005s, seems to exacerbate their super progressive behavior.<br />
<br />
Noise-wise, they are less noisy than the T005s when rolling. Comfort-wise, they are a bit firmer than new T005s but surely much more comfortable than end-of-life T005s. <br />
<br />
All in all, I need more time with them after completely breaking in to assess their subjective qualities, fuel consumption, final comfort, and noise.<br />
I will come back

I replaced the Bridgestone Turanza T005 tires with these in 2020 and used them for five summers, covering 42,000 km. These tires are significantly better than the Bridgestones. They wear much more slowly, are far quieter, absorb road imperfections better, and offer superior resistance to aquaplaning.<br />
<br />
With the Bridgestones, I could feel every tiny bump in the road, as if I could tell what was written on a coin I drove over, whereas the Goodyears smooth out road imperfections very well. The Bridgestones were quite loud, which made them especially annoying on the highway, while these are genuinely quiet.<br />
<br />
With the Turanzas, even shallow water crossing the road was very noticeable; it would noticeably slow the car down, and once it even caused the cruise control to disengage. These, on the other hand, pass through such patches of water smoothly without affecting the car’s motion.<br />
<br />
Because the Goodyears are so comfortable, you might think they’re not suited for more spirited driving, but the moment you start pushing them, it becomes clear that they offer excellent grip and feel very safe.<br />
<br />
The only area where the Bridgestones were slightly better was fuel consumption: with the Goodyears, consumption increased by about 0.1 liters per 100 km.<br />
<br />
What’s truly impressive (almost unbelievable!) is that after five summers and 42,000 km (often driven dynamically), the tires still looked nearly new, with a tread depth of 6.2 (!) mm.<br />
<br />
Over nearly 25 years of driving, I’ve used summer tires from Continental, Michelin, Pirelli, Fulda, Vredestein, and Bridgestone, but these outperform all of them by far. These have been the best summer tires I’ve ever owned.<br />
<br />
As a side note, before the Bridgestones I had the predecessor to these Goodyears, the EfficientGrip Performance. It wasn’t bad, but it’s nowhere near the EfficientGrip Performance 2.

Got these tyres on a used car mostly for driving around town, they were 5 years old with no visible wear. On dry roads it had okayish grip .Absolutely horrible in wet, on anything but asphalt road, you can expect ABS triggering when braking little bit harder or understeer when turning into a harder corner. Had them on the car for the few months in late summer, early autumn. Got rid of them happily in favour of winter tyres (Hankook winter i*cept RS2) which felt much better. Maybe on a heavier car wet grip could be little bit better, but it would probably still be quite bad.
