Two years in and they are holding up well. Great for flooded roads but surprisingly wet roads not so good. They float a bit. Dry roads are great but mud and snow = wow perfect! First year had lots of light mud use and the rear drive never kicked in at all. Last year we had some snow and went hooligan in a country car park booting it for fun and almost never lost traction. will def by again for confidence .

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.
How long do tyres last on the Honda CRV?
Across 20 end of life reviews from Honda CRV drivers, a typical set of tyres was worn out after 28,000 miles. Half of all worn-out sets lasted between 12,000 miles and 38,000 miles.
Distances are self-reported by drivers whose review marked the set as worn out; figures are medians, so a single unusual report cannot move them.
Every tyre reviewed on the Honda CRV
The complete record, including discontinued tyres and tyres with too few reviews to rank, ordered by the amount of evidence. A further 80 tyres have a single review each; they count toward the totals but are not listed.

Generally very good, i hope future upgrades can improve on comfort, as they are a rough,
But you do get Sharp responsive stop, start and handling for that exchange
Good tyre, i would buy again
The tires are cupped after only 30000 miles. The tires came standard on my 2023 Honda crv hybrid sport touring. The vehicle was purchased new in 2023. Very dissatisfied with Michelin primacy. An expensive tire that is crap. The tires were rotated every 5000 miles with the oil change.
For some reason I experienced lots of tyre roar from the PS4 SUV tyres despite rotation and alignment. In the end i waited for the MyCar Black Friday sale and got a set of Pirelli's in 19 inch and no more tyre noise. Maybe just unlucky but every Michelin i have purchased, i've always had noticeable tyre roar. Have stayed away from them and leaned towards Bridgestone and Pirelli for now.
Amazing tires. Sand, snow and rain, has demolished everything on my CRV. Amazing tires, no flats, holds pressure amazing. I’m in BC Canada. Would buy again in a heartbeat for another vehicle and recommend for sure.
This is a follow up review for these tyres, the 1st being in April 25. Tyres are fitted from Nov-Mar and this will be their 3rd winter coming up. To date they have performed admirably in all conditions and there is still 5mm on all tyres as I rotate them from front to back each time they are refitted. Given their performance I couldn't justify paying for a premium brand as these do everything I want. In summary a great value tyre with decent performance and wear. Will replace like for like when required.
Having driven nearly 24,000+ miles on these tyres on my Honda CR-V since November 2022, I'm thoroughly impressed. Compared to other tyres I've used like Pirelli Scorpion Verde& Goodyear Wrangler HP All Weather, they balance durability & refinement exceptionally well. They handle Nairobi's demanding roads & highway drives easily, with outstanding wet grip. Cabin noise remains low & ride comfort stays smooth. Performance hasn't faded after almost 3 years. Exceptional value & would definitely buy them again.
A vast improvement over the original Michelin tire that Honda recommended for my vehicle.
very satisfied. no weak point reviewed. strongly recommended.
So the Hankook Kinergy GT is interesting here in Canada. My mom has put 30,000 kms on it since new in 2024, and it seems fine still, but I found something note worthy. In Ontario anyways, this tire is on a lot of Honda CR'Vs from factory, and I know of 2 other people who had this exact tire and same spec on their CR-Vs, but they said once around 50,000kms, everything just fell off a cliff.
The feedback, the grip in both the wet and dry, the comfort, everything. I'm wondering if it's because Honda has this version slightly tweaked differently than maybe what Hannok would normally do? But why Honda would request this tire to be "less capable"... It seems odd to me... Weird that at 50k kms this tire would feel like end of life, and from a company I wouldn't expect that from.
I know of these people and trust their judgements with tires, and neither of them really know one another, so I found it odd that they both said basically the same thing. Between all 3 of us, we drive Honda CR-Vs at the mid tier "Sport" trim, and dirivng habits are quite similar.
Maybe this is something worth mentioning?
It feels like a great tire, I've had no issues with it myself, and I've likely put on close to a third of the millage that is on it.
I am used to Michelin Defender 2 tires for larger vehicles... And I wouldn't say the Kinergy GT are as good as, (not even close) but... As a "mid tier" option, it's a good tire. But still sits in the back of my head that, by 50,000 kms, the tire could be at end of life.
I'll definitely be updating my review when I get closer to that, number.

Every rating on this page was submitted by a driver through the review form on this site, naming the car, the tyre, the size and the distance covered. Reviews are checked by hand before publication, and the page rebuilds automatically as new ones arrive.
About the TR Score
The Tyre Reviews Score rates each tyre out of 10 using independent test results and the full body of owner reviews, so you can check a car-specific ranking against the wider evidence.
Who does the testing
Every test published as a Tyre Reviews test is run by Jonathan Benson, who has been testing tyres independently since 2007.
