195/60 15 Tire Review Highlights
Yokohama BluEarth Es ES32 rated 86% while driving a Honda Jazz
Driving on mostly town for 42000 easy going miles
Driving on mostly town for 42000 easy going miles
I’m using these tires on my Honda Jazz — admittedly a bit of an overkill for a compact hatchback, but I specifically wanted a wider tire than the stock 175s. I’ve been extremely pleased with the performance.
For everyday driving, the grip is excellent in both dry and wet conditions — surprisingly, it performs even better in the wet. It handles puddles effortlessly, and the car feels stable and planted on the road. Braking distances are also impressive.
The ride quality is very comfortable overall. If I had to be picky, the last 3,000 km have been slightly less smooth as the tread wore down, but that’s to be expected.
All things considered, this tire definitely punches above its weight. Given the car I drive and my driving style, I’d absolutely buy it again.

Much better than the Sumitomo BC100 I had in previously. I immediately notice they were much quieter and noticeably more comfortable than the BC100s I had no real problems in the dry or in the wet. They've performed well in emergency braking situations on my non-ABS car and are not easy to lock up on dry average quality pavement. The loss of grip is progressive and more manageable than the previous tires I had. I've noticed a slight tendency to understeer on very tight corners but that could be suboptimal alignment. In the wet they are more difficult to spin than the Sumitomos and that's a good thing because Greek pavement is not grippy in the rain. As for wear, after about 15000km they had about 5mm tread and that's pretty good considering the fact that I do take my car for spirited drives often. Overall I'd buy again but I'd also like to try the Adan Flevas and see if they're worth the price difference.

I drive civic 2005 on city roads in Bulgaria. I’ve been driving 3 summers these kumhos. They are good on the dry roads, fuel efficient too and have a good price. They are good for NORMAL DRIVING and I’m happy with them. Not so good on wet roads.
Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Gen 3 rated 42% while driving a Fiat Bravo
Driving on a combination of roads for 20000 easy going miles
Driving on a combination of roads for 20000 easy going miles
Vector 4 Season Gen 3 is very soft which makes the tire quiet and this is the only good trait for this tire, everything else is horrendous.
Dry grip is good, the tire rarely slips under acceleration but being so soft the feedback is not great and handling is very vague, I tried lowering or raising pressure but still the sidewall flexes too much compared to other tires.
Wet grip is what made me scared and I replaced the tires, understeer is crazy even during slight rain in 10C taking a roundabout at 30kph is enough to make the car understeer, I never though an all season tire can be this bad in the wet, I had some ChenShingTires Sport before and the feeling was the same, outright dangerous unless you're going in a straight line.
Fresh soft snow is okay but once you get on compacted snow or ice the car understeers and doesnt brake, the rear also gets loose in a FWD car somehow...
Comfort is exceptional, these are probably the quietest and softest tires I've driven on, you don't feel cracks or bumps and potholes are muffled well, wind is noisier than road noise from the tires.
Durability is weird, every goodyear tire falls apart before wearing down, there's plenty of cases online for "goodyear chunking" where pieces of tread randomly get torn apart even though you drive 100% in asphalt and no rocks/gravel/offroad otherwise the tread has a good depth after 30tkm still over 4mm so theoretically 50tkm would be achievable without weird chunking
Safe to say I'll never buy this tire again (luckily there were gifted to me), if my old Fiat Bravo became unsafe after installing Goodyear Vector 4Season Gen3 let alone I don't even want to imagine installing them on my Audi A3 or my Ford Mustang... shame because in the past I had Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5 on my BMW 640d and they were fine

I've tried Firestone, Goodyear and Toyo so far. And these one's the better one. Excellent dry and wet grip with a very impressive handling and feedback. But what amazed me more was the tire wear. I've done 90k km on a lowered (with negative camber) car. And I still have some rubber left. Impressive. They gone up on price since I've bought them. No wonder... I bought 4 tires for 240 euros. Now it's 400. Still, I'm definitely gonna buy them again!
Maxxis MA P5 Mecotra rated 75% while driving a Honda Civic

In my opinion, this tire punches well above its weight. For a budget category, it offers excellent value for money. No.1 highlight: comfort. It has plushy drive feel, soft but surefooted, and it is surely the quietest tire I've ever had (even beating premium brands performance models). They're really super quiet. I put them through proper test in Asian mountains (after 800km ridden), which included descending long steep slopes on narrow road with tight corners in the middle of the storm. The grip was totally satisfying with zero sketchy moments, inspiring confidence. I had to remind myself again and again what the price of these is. The only setback is that the rolling resistance seems to be higher (as common with other Maxxis's, e.g. bicycle tires). But again, it's a budget tire, and I'm really impressed overall.
Michelin Primacy 4 rated 73% while driving a Mitsubishi Lancer 1.6 16V (2003 2008)
Driving on mostly town for 13670 average miles
Driving on mostly town for 13670 average miles
Coming from BluEarth AE50, Falken ZE914 and Kumho PS31, this Thai made Primacy 4 is the quietest set of tires I have ever owned. On nicer paved roads, it's really a silent on a Japanese ride. But on roads with poorer condition, it is still noisy for me. Dry braking distance is noticeable longer but still able to stop in time during emergency. On heavy rainy days, I can maintain speed limit confidently on the highway. Aqua planning is great. Can't really feel the steering pulling to one side when driving through puddle. Road feedback is average, but you won't feel like you are losing control at 140km/h on Malaysia highway. However, I feel it is still short on comfort even on stock suspension setup with all newly replaced original parts. Inflate to 2.1 bar, the car is bouncing everywhere like a boat. Inflate to 2.3 bar, the ride is extremely harsh on uneven Singapore roads like I am on coilover. Other than this bumpy/bouncing issue, it is a great set of tires. Now at 22,000km and 4 years old, noise level and grip are still good. But have to look for other brands as good 15 inch tires are hard to find these days.

Generally, it's ok tire.
Advantages:
Comfortable ride, good dry grip, wet grip fine, driving noice pretty good.
Cons:
Wear very quickly, tire side get very dirt accompanying with typical color. I did not use my car often but after 4 years of use I started to see a drying cracks, this is not typical for premium tires. Mid-range tire.

Excellent tire. In the rain, the water flow is impressive. Dry is also good.
