Scariest tires I've had in the rain. Lasts a long time though. Pretty noisy too.

My only problem is the false advertising. They list my series as 275. Which is about 10.75 inches. These look skinny so I measured the tread width. In all actuality they measure 222 m. Which is only 8.75 inches. That's 2 inches narrower then advertised. I guess Chili doesn't know how to use a measuring device. False Advertising...

The tires are fine until one could no longer hold air. Went out and looked at it, and realized chinks of the tread were missing. Not just in one spot, but around much of us circumference of the tire. This was mostly on the outer part of the tread (Not the sidewall) The inner part of the tread was literally peeling off. I would not recommend this tire or this tire compound. These tires had maybe 20,000 miles on them. Mostly highway driving. Garbage.

I've been driving on Goodyear tires for a good 20 years with three F-150s so thought I'd give Goodyear a try with my Fusion as well and so far am very pleased. Obviously the handling of a car is vastly different than an F-150 and they corner well, go around curves at speeds without issues, and are responsive during evasive braking. The noise level is good at this price point and is only noticeable at highway speeds, assuming that your car has good insulation and sound deadening material from factory. Wet handling is also good at this price point whether it's light rain or torrential downpours. I have no expense with these in the snow as it almost never snows in Texas. What I like best about these tires are that the sidewalls look very nice especially after a coat of gel tire dressing. They stay black with no brown spots unlike tires from other manufacturers. I think a tire salesperson I spoke to told me years ago that Goodyear has TrueBlack, or some marketing name, given to a black compound they use in their tires to keep them black for a long time. This comes in handy if you have tendency to rub the curb turning right at red lights. I chose a .45 instead of .50 aspect ratio (not recommended by any manufacturer LOL) to decrease the sidewalls about 10mm for a lower profile tire. Last, these tires have a built-in wheel guard "lip" that protects your rims from curb rash with very minor hits. If you run a curb at full speed like my sister did with my car that rubber lip will not help you or your wheels. I like these so much I bought another set for a different car.

Great smooth ride. It's like a new car, albeit 15 years old.
