225/45 19 Tire Review Highlights

Bridgestone Potenza S001 rated 51% while driving a Volkswagen T Roc
Driving on mostly motorways for 10000 average miles
Hey ALL, When I bought my VW T-ROC, it came with S001, the tire is fine when you are at a lower speed.

However, when you are on the highway, I mean the noise that tires make will drive you crazy.

Continental Extremecontact DWS 06 rated 67% while driving a BMW X1 2.0 Xdrive
Driving on a combination of roads for 20 average miles
These 225/45/19 Continental tires are not suitable for an X1. The comfort is basic and they are too stiff. The driving becomes too nervous. Very poor directional stability. The trajectory must be corrected regularly, even after having revised the alignment of the car. After 33,000 km, I have to replace them...
The original tires were Pirelli Cinturato P7. These tires are even worse. I had to replace them after only 21,000 km of discomfort.

Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3 rated 85% while driving a Nissan Juke
Driving on a combination of roads for 2000 average miles
It has definitely been a choice that improved the driving comfort of my car. I’m pleased with the road handling. I’ve had the chance to drive around 3,000 km without experiencing any issues. With my B-segment SUV, I can now take turns more easily, and I’m satisfied with the braking distance. Both dry and wet grip have shown a significant improvement for me. The performance and safety level of my vehicle have definitely increased. I haven’t noticed a difference in fuel consumption compared to my previous tires yet. Although the suspension of my B-segment SUV is medium-firm, I feel less impact from bumps and potholes on the road, and I can notice the difference in comfort. I haven’t had the chance to try it on snow or icy roads, but I’m confident it will perform well.

Bridgestone Dueler HP Sport rated 79% while driving a Skoda Karoq 2.0TSI 4x4 Sportline
Driving on a combination of roads for 20000 spirited miles
These tires were fitted to my car from new, and replaced after 20,000 miles due to the tread wearing away on the outside edges. They gripped well, surprisingly so in winter and on snow, and gave precise steering, but suffered from tire noise on some road surfaces, and a harsh ride.

Continental AllSeasonContact 2 rated 97% while driving a Skoda Karoq 2.0TSI 4x4 Sportline
Driving on a combination of roads for 1000 average miles
I bought these tires to replace the Bridgestone Dueler summer tires fitted by Skoda as after 20,000 miles these had worn significantly on the outer edges of the tread.

After a 1,000 miles, they seem to be more comfortable and quieter, but the extra tread depth seems to have the side effect of making the steering slightly less precise. I haven't detected any change to fuel consumption, or grip, but now the temperatures are dropping I expect them to have more grip on winter roads.

Kelly Edge AS rated 43% while driving a Toyota Venza USA
Driving on mostly motorways for 0 average miles
I drove these with my Venza and only got like 7000 miles on them. Only realized they were worn after they started skidding in light rain

Goodyear Vector 4 Seasons Gen 2 rated 80% while driving a Nissan Qashqai 4x4
Driving on a combination of roads for 27000 easy going miles
These have been a great tire. Still have life left but having to change as NSF has worn down due to alignment. They've taken me throughout Europe and all over Switzerland in the snow, no issues with grip whatsoever. I even slid into a curb, mangling the Alloy but no damage to tire at all. I've hit pot holes that would have destroyed a summer tire (from experience with Dunlop SportMaxx), but these has been perfect and survived without issue.
Would fit again if the price hadn't gone up £100+ per tire.

In comparison to the original Michelin Pilot Sport and Dunlop Sport Maxx it's had, there is definitely less wet and dry grip but that was expect being an all season but not to a detrimental level.

Noice wise, in Europe these are pretty much silent on the motorway. In the UK: M25 it's unbearable (due to road surface). General M6, M4 not really an issue.

Wear has been 27,000 over 2 years, could keep the 3 going for another few thousand miles if I wanted as they're at about 3mm but the alignment of my wheels has taken the one down to 2mm.

Roadstone Eurovis Sport 04 rated 63% while driving a Renault Kadjar 1.5DCi
Driving on a combination of roads for 15000 miles
I've had these tires put on twice on the front (15000) and one on the back so (30000) still have a bit left in the back.
No complaint, but am trying a different brand now trying to get a few more miles out of the front tires.

Bridgestone Potenza Sport rated 70% while driving a Mazda 6
Driving on mostly town for 16000 spirited miles
TL;DR Great tire with a huge amount of dry/grip and excellent road feedback. Wear rate and noise is very high. Ride is firm.

This is my second review on TireReviews.com. My past tires on my 2017 (2018 for the Americans) Mazda 6 were a slightly-upsized 235/45/19 Yokohama V701. I've always been a fan of unidirectional and symmetrical tires, so the Bridgestone Potenza Sport tires were a departure from my previous bias.

For context, the Potenza Sport in my car's stock size was some 30% cheaper than the usual Michelin/Continental competitors, and just 5% more expensive than my prior set of Yokohamas. These prices are for Singapore, and for the record, temperatures range from 30-40 degrees Celsius all year round, and we get rain pretty often (50% chance throughout the year).

These tires GRIP. Whether its wet or dry, the confidence inspired by the Potenza Sports were always high. The stiff sidewalls translated to excellent feedback through the steering and I never once felt like the car would come loose. When it was dry and traffic was clear, the tire never failed to plant a smile on my face and it felt like I could never reach the tire's limits on public roads. In the wet, traffic tends to slow to a crawl in Singapore, but of the few times I had fun when it was raining here, the tire would still track very confidently around bends.

Now the negative feedback. The tires were fairly noisy even when new. And whilst the stiff sidewalls translated to excellent steering feedback and response, the ride was noticeably harsher and firmer.

As others have noted on this website, the wear rate is VERY high. I drove this car for 25k km (16k miles) when my car was 5 years old to 7.5 years old. At 7 years-old and my tires were at the 20k km (12k miles) mark, my independent mechanic (who does not sell tires) noted that my inside treads might not pass our local vehicle inspections (similar to UK's MOT, and our's is conducted biennially from the car's 3rd year onwards). For the record, I did manage to pass the test, thankfully.

I always had my car's tires rotated regularly at 6 months regardless of distance, and the wear rate was quite a surprise. I've attached a photo of one of my front tires at its end-of-life (2.5 years or use and at 25k km) and you can see that the inside tread is already at the treadwear indicators.

To be fair, I am running aftermarket camber bolts to for -1.5 degrees camber in the front. But to go back to my usual bias, I'm not able to do a proper cross-rotate to even out the inside tread for asymmetrical tires, which is a bit of a shame. If your car is running stock/less aggressive camber, I daresay you could eke out perhaps another 6k miles (10k km) out of the tire.

Due to the high wear rate, I've gone back to my old tire (Yokohama V701). My local tire shop gave me a very good price for the new set, so I'm happy to head back. Plus the V701's more relaxed nature probably suits the Mazda 6 better. I do miss the much better feedback and grip of the Bridgestone Potenza Sport, but the high wear rate was definitely a concern, despite its reasonable pricing.

Michelin Pilot Sport rated 97% while driving a BMW 330d M Sport
Driving on a combination of roads for 410 average miles
Absolutely the best tires I have ever had. Yes, they are expensive but you do get what you pay for. This is my second set on the fronts which the previous ones had covered 30K miles and somehow they seem quieter than the set before. Not sure why or whether there has been an upgrade or they are simply new.

The rears still have some life in them but I will be changing these later in the year.

Little tip, ensure your tracking is setup correctly. Makes all the difference in the wear.

In conclusion, you won't be disappointed in the Michelins. Enjoy and drive safely.

Bridgestone Turanza T005 rated 49% while driving a Mazda Mazda 6 GL Wagon
Driving on a combination of roads for 34000 spirited miles
A hard wearing OEM factory original tire that was used for 6 years and 55000 km. The tire tread is still very sufficient, but it is already unsafe to drive on - the wet grip decidedly awful. You will get wheel spin just with a mist of water, or on a drying road, with only moderate throttle input. Dry grip is sufficient but you can feel that the car is just a little on edge if you brake too hard while cornering. The feedback is excellent, if only because you can feel every bump and dip in the road surface. Obviously the ride is extremely bumpy, and road noise was quite loud. The steering got very heavy as the tires aged, and some brake screeching started to occur even at very light braking between 40km/h and 60km/h. All issues, including the steering and the brake screeching, were solved when replaced with new tires. I would not recommend these tires to anyone.

Continental EcoContact 6 rated 76% while driving a MINI MINI COUNTRYMAN S ALL4
Driving on a combination of roads for 300 spirited miles
This tire is Eco Contact 6 SSR BMW labelled which is OE tire for MINI countryman cooper S ALL 4 sell in China.
According to my oberservation, the treadwear is 440 and the traction is AA which is different to the non brand-labelled tire or other brand proved tire.BMW or MINI may customize of this tire with Continental and improved the traction, handling and reduced wear.

This tire has good handling in urban and mountain tarmac in Beijing.The support in curves is good and not easy to make some noise to remind driver so this tire can support the spirited driving although it is not belongs to the sports tire at all.I think the Premium Contact 6 is placed at higher level than this.

I gave the lower mark on noise.This runflat tire is likely to produce more noise than others like PZ4 RSC for BMW X5 21 inch wheel.(The countryman has poorer level of NVH)

I may buy the UHP non-runflat tire for Countryman to increase its sportiness and reduce the rolling noise.
