Citroën DS3 Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Continental WinterContact TS 870 P given 83% (215-60-17-)
Driving on mostly country roads for 2000 easy going miles
Very balanced tyres. Ideal for my EV thanks to the low noise and rolling resistance.

Writing about the Roadstone Eurovis Sport 04 given 56% (205-45-17-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 10 average miles
They generally drive fine in the dry - predictable with decent grip, feedback and handling - but you need to be much more careful in the wet, when they tend to slip and slide around a bit if pushed at all. They seem good for fuel economy but poor in terms of tread wear. My front pair are almost down to 2mm (and now due for replacement) after little more than 10,000 miles. A decent, reliable budget tyre if your annual mileage is low.

Writing about the Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance given 91% (205-45-17-)
Driving on mostly motorways for 25000 average miles
In 2011 when I bought the car, it was wearing the Bridgestone Potenza 050. A tire with excellent grip on the dry (but only when it was warmed, and unfortunately it took too long to warm up, which never happened on the max 50 km routes I did on a highway at 80% of the vehicle's use), but moderate in the wet, very annoying rough and stiff (which it extended even more by the 45 profile to 17'' rims) and incredibly noisy. Passing on ContiSport 3, about the same in the dry, better in the wet, slightly less stiff (but still rough) and slightly less noisy (but still noisy). I would describe it as completely indifferent! I am deliberately not referring to mileage wear, because I believe that a tyre should be judged by the high level of safety it offers in all driving conditions (within reasonable speed limits and maneuverings, rather than making dangerous and illegal speed races on highways!) combined with the high level of comfort and noiseless riding with the least possible rolling resistance it offers. And finally all the above desired features, within an excellent well-tempered proportion of them, I found in Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance, for which in dimension 205/45/17, 88V, the EU label gives A, B, 67db. Specifically, very quiet even at high speeds, very comfortable with excellent riding quality at the correct (by the manufacturer recommended) pressure of 2.4 bar, extremely low rolling resistance (approximately 0.8 to 1 lt/100Km, compared to the previous tires), they warm up very quickly, and their handling in dry or wet is exceptional even reaching the limits of excess in speed and cornering. Recently after 45,000 Km, and long before their grooves reach their wear indicators, I replaced them again with the same ones (since the new Performance 2 do not come out at the moment in this dimension) and already from the first kilometers I am just as excited. But with a single weirdness: Their tread pattern (although Performance 1 and not 2) is the same as Performance 2, although on the EU Label sticker it says EfficientGrip Performance (i.e., not the 2)!
