Initial review after getting fresh tyres today..I'm not sure if my comfortred tyres is the same as EU/USA as the design looks abit different.. Im getting this to compare to my previous lassa revolas, but even though it's a different size, i can immediately feel differences in terms of comfort and noise...I used to listen to my music at lvl 7 on the expressways. Now i can listen comfortable at lvl 6.. The noisiest stretches are still noisy but better.... I will update again when the tyres have worn in

Fitment comes from each tyre's manufactured size list, and the sizes are the ones drivers reported when they reviewed. Check the size, load index and speed rating on your own doorplate before buying - a size a previous owner ran is not always the size your car left the factory on.

What BYD Dolphin dynamic drivers say
The most recent owner reviews from this car, in their own words.
For high Torque ev usage- Satisfactory grip during normal driving but easy breakaway under high power, even at speed. Expected end of life 45k km.
Tyres have developed around 30k a per revolution noise which is very concerning and proven to be Tyre related.
Roughly 35,000kms on the tires. Just did my last rotation on it. Will prolly last another 5000kms before I'm changing it out.. Going back to 195 60 16, as I want to test the efficiency of after market tyres but stock size. Going to try goodyear assurance comforttred which is supposed to replace the efficient grip 2s as it's being phased out.
So as previously mentioned road noise is getting pretty loud after 20k+ kms. Cause of not really good wheel well insulation..after rotation its temporarily better, but it will still be noisy..if on new well paved roads it's dead quiet even at 90-110kph.get roads make it very noisy..
.i have dropped pressure to 240kpa cold from 245kpa ~28-29c.. Hot will be about 260-265kpa at 40-42c..I find the tires becoming abit stiffer after about 25k kms... small bumps n shocks are more prevalent. If i had better suspension n shocks this won't be an issue.... Overall decent tyre for the price. Depending on demand /supply price.
Mileage more than 45000 km, still in fail handling, dry and wet grip, braking.
Noisy in highway more than 80km/h
Currently done about 25,000km+ on the tires.
Dry grip still pretty good. Have yet to make the tires squeal around corners.maybe cause of the body roll n soft side walls.. Makes me not wanna push it so hard.
Wet grip is still alright...hydro planed twice.., but able to catch it..
Comfort /noise is getting abit worse after about 20k+ km. Noise is abit louder and feels abit more bumpy in terms of tire impact absorption. Have been maintaining 250 kpa at 29-30c.he's about 265-268 at about 40-43c. 270kpa is harsh for the Byd dolphin..
Rotation at every 9-10k kms noticed slight tread block scalloping. At about 7-8km b4 each rotation... Tyre dealer advised its cause of the weight and the car and the toe in on the car.

The oem tires came with the byd dolphin.
Mediocre at best on dry, and very poor in wet.

Follow up review after 700km
Dry grip very good, but cause of the soft side walls, body roll feels exaggerated
Wet grip is decent so far, easily manages hydroplanning. Have not test wet grip limit as theres no track here for me to test..
White nose from the tire is there compared to my ling longs which is quiet .. Certain audible wrring at 49-51kph maybe from the acoustic cancelling tread design patterns., but the white noise is ok and not disturbing.. If my wife n daughter is able to nap then its good.
Average Tire temps are also higher.. Ling longs usually max out at 38c on normal driving roads while ot reaches about 42c if I do cross country higher speed runs.. This tyre averages 40c and so far has gone up to 45c on normal driving, maybe cause of hotter weathers
Experimented on diff tyre pressures at 26-28c n found that 250kpa is best as by the time it reaches peak temps at 40ish c its about 265+kpa.and its nice and firm. After 270kpa tyre becomes abit too stiff for me. Small bumps become very noticable.
Oh yes.. To the website editor, its lassa Revola. Not revolta.
