Goodyear Assurance Finesse

These came factory on my 2025 Honda Civic Sport Touring Hybrid Hatchback (Phew) in 235/40/18.
I haven't come here to say nice things. They're generally quiet and pleasant with good road manners and well damped. In the dry they're ok, but easily overwhelmed and will plead for mercy at generally low levels of spirited driving. In the wet... You better have Jesus in the car with you. I have had these try to leave the road in the rain several times while under the speed limit. On the right aspahlt at speeds as low as 20mph you can give the wheel a jerk and mid corner and break the car free with little grip to recover with. I had these perform a dead even (front and rear) slide in the rain mid corner at just under 40mph (Speed limit 45). The ECS didn't even notice and the car hooked up when I caught the gravel shoulder.
Wear: Its bad. These get rotated out for winter tires. They have no more than 7000 miles on them. The fronts are down to 4/32nd and the rear are at 6/32nd.
I refuse to grace these tires with an attached photo. They don't deserve it.

*OE fitment on Honda Civic Hatchback Hybrid Sport Touring
- Tires have average Dry Grip and lackluster Wet Grip.
- Road Feedback is average - general purpose commuting/touring tire with a laid back character.
- Handling is average - tires will protest loudly if pushed beyond the rather low limits. Frequent tire squeal when maneuvering at parking lot speeds on coated asphalt as is common in many driveways, common areas and parking lots in the United States.
- Wear is average - Front tires were visibly worn compared to the rears at under 7,000 miles.

+ Comfort - Tires are above average with noise control, bump absorption and overall ride comfort.
+ Efficiency - tires have noticeably lower rolling resistance, i.e. there is a significant fuel efficiency difference versus Goodyear Assurance WeatherReady 2 replacement,

Snow/Ice Grip not tested prior to replacement.
