Replaced Michelin Primacy 3 with these. Intitial feeling is that tryes are less confortable (not by much) and a little noisier than Michelins but wear, grip, handling and feedback looks to be much better. Obviously I do not need sporty type of tire for soft SUV and from that point of view they seem like perfect match with a car dynamics (or lack of it). They seem to be well balanced tires. I will see what will happen once I put additional miles in them.

Unreal longevity and fuel economy. Driven 37,000 miles on the driven wheels and they still have 3.5mm tread left. They're quite expensive to buy, but it pays off in the long run with the improved returns on life and mpg.

I drove my car on these tires for 46 000 miles (Front Tires - mostly highway) and I still have 3.5mm left, it is a good tire for summer (as it is designed) but when the weather gets a bit wet it can struggle a little bit but nothing major. I used them in snow a couple of times and it will struggle as it is not designed for that but I managed to get home without assistance. I will probably buy them again as they perform very well for the mileage.

Previously had Vredestein Ultrac Satin and the Goodyear's are a big step up in terms of overall grip on dry and especially wet. They are really safe and stable in all conditions even on winding roads in heavy rain. On a down side the subjective feeling through twisty turns was not great, the side wall was much softer than in the Ultrac Satins and they did not feel as sharp, so do not recommend for sporty driving. The tread depth was barely touched after around 8k so the wear seems very good. Would buy again as a premium touring tire with great grip in dry, wet.

had these on front of diesel accord , comfort was good and grip was great in both dry and wet as for braking lucky enough never had to ram the brakes on in dry or wet, the wear seems good still about 5 mm left after about 15000 miles, they are on the back now as fronts now have asymmetric 6 fitted.

Excellent grip in wet and dry conditions with good handling but after 6,000 miles I’ve had 5 punctures ! With 2 tires needing replacement. Yes it has been unusually wet in UK, but in 20 years driving I’ve only previously had a couple of punctures until now. Maybe I’ve just been extremely unlucky but I can’t help thinking that the increased grip that these tires undoubtedly have somehow makes them more prone to picking up screws and nails. I love the grip and handling but would never buy these again.

So far tried Michelin Energy Saver (ES), Continental Premium Contact 5 (PC5) and now these Goodyear Efficient Grip 2’s (EG2) on my car. The Efficient Grip 2’s are basically like half way tire between the Energy Savers and Premium Contact 5’s. EG2 have a softer ride and are a touch quieter than the PC5. Definitely less fidget over broken surfaces and thumps from the suspension on bigger bumps are a bit quieter too. EG2 therefore don’t respond to changes in direction as readily as PC5. There is more squidge in the initial turn in and the car feels less keyed into the road surface. They do grip well however. EG2 the steering feels more gloopy than PC5, this is especially apparent when temperatures drop below 5 degrees. EG2 don’t respond to low temperatures as well as PC5 and start to behave like ES. More understeer on wet surfaces especially. Inconsistent steering weights become apparent in very cold temperatures, less than 3 degrees. EG2 has similar fuel economy to ES. I regularly get 310-330 miles per tank driving around town. On PC5 doing the same routes, I got 280 - 290 miles per tank. Overall if I had to buy new tires for my car again, I’d get the Premium Contact 7’s when they are released. I much preferred the PC5’s consistency across temperatures and sporty response. I would sacrifice a bit of ride comfort and fuel economy for this.

Came from the Goodyear F1A3 and wanted something more comfort biased, and this is a perfect balance between comfort and performance, almost similar performance to the F1A3 (75-80%) while having superior comfort and noise and rolling resistance, ontop of that handling is still fun as you still get road feedback. But as it is a softer tire, at high speed cornering you can feel the car roll more compared to harder UHP tires, but that is just how things are. Overall totally great buy in my opinion. Highly recommended.

After 10000 miles I can say they are the worst tires I have ever bought. I drive in Greece (Athens, Thessaloniki) and quite a lot on motorways. The grip on dry surfaces is the worst I've ever experienced. In normal atmospheric and street temperatures the tires are so bad even when I start moving the car smoothly, after being stopped at traffic lights. In low speed corners (40kmh) again I feel that the car has no traction at all. Compared to the previous tires I've bought, Vredestein Sportrac 5 and Ultac Satin, or even the Continental Wintercontact TS 870 winter tires (under almost same conditions) there is a huge difference in dry grip. They also make a lot of noise and finally when I drive at low speeds and have to brake, the ABS is activated which is not normal. At least on wet surfaces the car seems to behave well. Generally no comfortable at all with these tires on the car

Awesome all around tire. drove mostly on the country side/motorway. wet grip is excellent and they shine on dry asphalt. Before i had some contisport 5 225/45 R17 (i downsized). best choice of my life probably haha. these are a LOT more comfy and quiet after 13000km, they lost practically zero tread would definetly buy them again

I'm surprised at the positive reviews.i found these tires very disappointing in all areas.in particular wet grip very poor.constant wheel spins pulling off.

205/55/16 the best touring tire overall....
