185/65 R14 Tyres

For the money, it's a decent option. Durable and stable on dry surfaces. Otherwise, it's average. Above-average noise.

I based my buy in this website, basically because my vehicle, a Mitsubishi Carisma of 1997, uses 14 inch wheels, a diameter that's getting deprecated in the release of new gen tires, and I needed more information about the best models I could choose, I had to choose between this model and the Hankook kinergy 4s2 and I chose Goodyear cause they seem to endure more mileage, although hankook may be a better bang for the buck. I haven't had this car enough to test more tires that this one, but overall, my experience has been great, most time I've driven this car is on a dry road and sometimes wet but I live in a pretty dry territory, I have tried to make a more "sporty" use to see what these tires are capable of and it has an amazing grip, I feel like it's incredibly hard to lose control, something I find specially important since my car has no ABS or ESP or TCS to compensate.

In terms or reliability I have to say I had an small leak recently on the rear left tire which lead me to repair it but after a quick and cheap visit to the mechanic it gave me no more problem.

In terms of noise, considering I haven't measured it specifically I would say these are very silent, most of the noise I hear with this car is aerodynamic, the engine or certain parts of the interior due to their age, I tried the car on sound-absorbing asphalt that has been recently installed in my town and that absorbs around 75% of the rolling noise, other cars I've experienced to hear had a massive difference but not with mine, which leads me to think that there is not so much noise to absorb from the tires.

I hope these to be my tires for a loong time, for now it seems like it's the case since the tire wear with this mileage is minimal.

Very good tires, good grip on dry and wet roads. Quiet, very good comfort on the road compared to the Bridgestone Turanza T 005 I had which were quite noisier but in terms of grip the Bridgertons were equal.

I've had the tyre on a 80hp 1ton Polo 9n3 from 2009 for roughly 10000 km. The only comparison I have is with a budget and extremely old winter tyre.
It handles well on wet surfaces, but I can't really speak about road feel, as the polo's steering is terrible in that regard. I've never felt the tyre loosing grip in corners and it gave me great confidence in very wet conditions, though I have to say that wet braking seems a bit bad (but this might be a symptom of the rather skinny tyre itself).
Dry driving and fuel economy over all has been great (80km/h 4.9L/100km, 100km/h 5.5L/100km, 130km/h 6.5L/100km), as is the road noise which is more than acceptable. In the dry I would have to say that the car is a bit skittish (new Sachs shocks) so take that as you wish, but that might be, again, the fault of the rather soft suspension the Polo has.

Overall, for the price, I can't say I'm disappointed and I can definitely recommend them, especially if you get a good deal on them, but I'd go ahead and buy them at full price too.
