Passenger Car Summer Premium Touring Tyres Tyre Review Highlights

Bridgestone Turanza T005 rated 63% while driving a Toyota Auris
Driving on mostly motorways for 20000 average miles
Worst tyres I have ever had. 4 tyres purchased 3.5 years ago. Replacing them on Tuesday, cracks in the tyre walls. Had the tyres checked at Kwik Fit.

Falken Sincera SN110 Ecorun rated 89% while driving a Smart fortwo passion
Driving on mostly town for 20000 easy going miles
Like others on here I have a smart fortwo 450 which means you are somewhat limited in choice when it comes to replacement.

Once you are outside the realms of budget tyres in the UK I'm essentially down to a choice of Sincera 110 ecoruns or a mixture of Continental ecocontact.

The Continentals carry a hefty premium over the Falkens - even with a 15% discount from my supplier I'm still paying £65 more for 4 tyres than I would should I choose the none discounted Falkens. ( £345 v £410).

Not only that but I'd be having a mixture of ecocontact 3 and 6 which seemed odd that I would be paying a hefty premium for a tyre that was essentially 3 generations old - research on this site showed me the ecocontact 3 was initially released in 2003!

But, more expensive equals better, right?

It would seem not.

The reviews on this website for the Continentals appear to be less than glowing, certainly compared to the ecoruns which I already have on the car.

I've been running the sinceras for a couple of years (since I bought the car)and about 15k miles. As it's a Smart car there is virtually no tread wear as the car is so light but the tyres are starting to perish as they date back to 2015. Overall, looking at the MOT history and the tyre dates I would guess they've done no more than 20k miles.

Ordinarily I would have replaced them earlier but as the car rarely goes above 20 mph in London I haven't really had to worry about high speed blowouts. However, I had to do a longer trip on the motorway last week where I made a promise to the tyre gods that if I didn't die in a fireball I would replace them this week.

In the time I have had the car with the Sinceras I can say I've been impressed.

I run an slk 55 as a weekend / summer car and have Michelins on that.

I would imagine that people want different things from different tyres and different cars. I don't expect the Sinceras to offer up the same level of grip as the Michelins but on the Smart my priorities are different - my prioritied are excellent wet weather grip - I don't want to be acquaplaning in a car with such a short wheelbase and noise and comfort rate high too.

In this respect the Sinceras score highly - I will caveat that with the fact that I am in the unusual situation whereby the tyres have plenty of tread left but are no doubt a lot more brittle after being on for 10 years and exposed to UV light all that time with the concomitant degradation.

I would certainly expect brand new Sinceras to be even better.

In short, they are an excellent tyre for your regular family type car where wet weather performance, noise and ride comfort are more important than outright on the limits grip - and they are certainly better than some tyres that are more expensive

Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance 2 rated 98% while driving a Hyundai Ioniq
Driving on a combination of roads for 1000 average miles
Replaced all 4 previous Michelin tyres due due to tread getting low at 20,000 miles. It's a pure electric car, so needed the extra weight rating. Not had any wet weather yet, but dry performance is excellent - car really grips the road when cornering at motorway speeds, and the lower sound is unexpectedly noticeable compared with the Michelins. I am planning to keep the car for at least the next 3 years, so will be interested to see if there is any reduction in wear as claimed.

Pirelli Cinturato C3 rated 97% while driving a BMW 218d Active Tourer
Driving on a combination of roads for 0 spirited miles
I've been driving my BMW with Pirelli Cinturato C3 tires only for a week now, but what I noticed right away is that I can now drive my car as if it were a toy I'm holding in my hand and I can turn it quickly and safely in any direction I want. All I have to do now is turn the wheel in the direction and degree I want without worrying at all if the car will skid or lose control, that's how safe these tires are. The tires are not noisy and maybe they can be even quieter over time, I don't know if there are other tires that could be even quieter...comfort?! The tires give the feeling as if the car is moving on a single large, very balanced tire and not on four of them, and I mean that in the most positive sense possible. At higher speeds, the tires do not seem to be glued to the asphalt nor do they prevent the car from moving promptly at the desired speed, nor will you experience the tire as the main factor that dictates the dynamics at high speed, on a straight road they become one with the car, for the moment, but when you need to maneuver the car quickly or brake, in the smallest to the largest maneuvers, then the tires come alive and oh boy, so alive, to remind you that they are there for you to keep you safe and in control. Of course I can't know how long they can be there for you but for as long as they will be, you and your car are in safe hands. I am really impressed how good these tires are.

Kumho Ecowing ES31 rated 80% while driving a Hyundai Ioniq
Driving on mostly town for 5000 easy going miles
Replace the previous Bridgestone Nextry tyre, the ES31 felt safe & capable in both dry and wet scenario, i am an easy driver in an Ioniq 28KWh, ride is good and didn't notice any bad behaviour. Too early to comment on tyre wear as i had only done around 5000km in it.

When wet road i manage to gain traction, if standing water deep, will easy to predict car behavior...

Michelin e.Primacy rated 56% while driving a Tesla Model 3 LR
Driving on a combination of roads for 31000 average miles
Very poor performance on wet surface. Dangerous even when you are driving at motorway speed and passing on this flyover bridge joint, these tyres will lose grip immediately and give you a shock.

Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance 2 rated 95% while driving a Toyota Avensis estate 1.8 petrol
Driving on mostly motorways for 1000 easy going miles
I have been driving my Goodyear Efficientgrip Performance 2 (215/55 R17 94W) for about 1000 miles and I'm quite surprised with the quiet and comfortable ride they deliver, a real premium experience. I have to admit that they struggle a bit on wet braking, but the rolling resistance is impressive, as the car kept the same fuel consumption as with the smaller OEM Michelin (205/60 R16 92V).

Michelin Primacy 5 rated 92% while driving a Toyota Corolla Cross
Driving on a combination of roads for 30 spirited miles
Changed from factory custom tyres(Bridgestone Alenza)for Corolla Cross . Bridgestone Alenza was one of the worst tires I ve ever used.

The change is dramatic . It is hard to hear road noise below 100 km , above 100 km noise level is very low. The comfort is perfect . While I did not try on wet , dry handling is better than Alenzas. I will update when I try on wet. I believe it will be much better than custom Alenzas.

Driving on a combination of roads for 10000 easy going miles
These are just a really anaverage dry tyre.
BUT IN THE WET THEY ARE A DEATH TRAP, THESE TYRES ARE SO DANGEROUS IN THE WET THAT THEY SHOULD BE WITHDRAWN FROM SALE AND ALL SOLD TYRES NEED TO BE RECALLED AND REFUNDED.
Do not trust your lives to these tyres....

Driving on a combination of roads for 30000 average miles
Good tyres, wearing is quite acceptable. They lasted from 2020 on mountain roads and highways, city daily driving so around 45000 kilometers and still 5000 kms before being exhausted at the front.
I appreciated their comfort with the noise: good with my Nissan Leaf 2.
On dry surface, they miss a bit of traction to support the 350 NM from the electric motor.
On wet surface, they miss a LOT of traction, they rip very easily.
Appart from traction, they are ok, not a sport tyre but pretty much enough to keep you secure.
