225/40 18 Tire Review Highlights
Vredestein Ultrac Pro rated 73% while driving a Alfa Romeo Giuiletta
Driving on a combination of roads for 6500 average miles
Driving on a combination of roads for 6500 average miles
After doing 6000 miles on a set of 4, the front nearside tire worn unevenly at 4.3mm-5mm-5.3mm-5.3mm inside of the tire to the outside. My tracking was out. Offside was a consistent 5.3mm all the way across.
Rear tires are sitting around 5.3mm-4.9mm as my car has an aggressive camber/toe.
They're great tires. Responsive, incredibly grippy in the dry, great in the wet. Fuel economy was stellar in both urban and motorway use.
One issue which has stopped me buying again, was that they just weren't very good below 5 degrees. I know they're a summer tires but the PS5 and Asym 6 I've had previously didn't lose grip like this did in a non-icy morning. Going round a roundabout I'm turning at about 20mph and it's not biting, just skidding.
Visually beautiful tires though.
Replaced the front axle with Pirelli PZ5 tires.

Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 rated 91% while driving a Audi A3
Driving on a combination of roads for 15000 spirited miles
Driving on a combination of roads for 15000 spirited miles
Mid life update @ 15k miles
Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 is awesome I really love these tires, dry grip is unbelievable on summer tire level and gets better as you wear the tire down. Lateral wet grip suffers after some wear just like a summer tire would because there are almost no sipes but the aggressive tread shape prevents any acquaplaning and wet braking/traction is still excellent, just be aware of slightly more understeer (progressive) in the wet as the tires wear down.
I am now at 6/32 so wear is good and even, these tires will last me around 30k miles which is good.
Driving in fresh snow is effortless, the tread design crunches the snow for extra grip and at the same time pushes out any slush/mud away from the tire, considering the width and angle of the grooves even better than a Michelin CrossClimate 2 so excellent tread design. Driving on ice is uncomfortable and a bit scary, I never slid or lost traction so the grip isn't lacking but the tire becomes very stiff and loud when cold (-17C) which makes you think you'll spin even if you don't, it's weird, safe but scary opposed to a softer tire.
Comfort is very good, at first I noticed some small vibrations in the steering wheel which bothered me at higher speeds even while going straight probably because of the super aggressive tread pattern but after some driving (3k miles) every vibration goes away. Tire noise is linear with temperature, cold=loud and hot=quiet you even notice this as you drive while tires warm up noise goes down, the compound is sensitive to temperature which is probably why on ice the tire is loud while during summer you barely notice. The only weird noise I had is a hum at precisely 58mph, not 57mph and below, not 59mph or above so it's negligible.
I'm super satisfied with the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 also because in my area it's the cheapest compared to Pirelli, Continental or Michelin all while sacrificing nothing (to be fair I haven't tested the Conti ASC2 but I had before Pirelli Cinturato SF, SF3 and Michelin CC2 and also Vredestein Quatrac Pro on this car)

These tires are very competent in all aspects. However, the very soft sidewall makes the rear feel super squishy on my Golf R. It's the only reason I will probably not replace them again. I have had two sets on this car so far.

Dry grip is excellent, same level as GY Asym6 I’d say.
I bit harsher and a bit noisier as the (very silent) Asym6, but the PS72 has a bit not direct/sporty feeling compared with Asym6

While these tires are a great performance tire, they have no place on a car that spends no time on track days. They are performance tires, but are very harsh and bumpy including hard to balance. They are also VERY noisy.
I was so disgusted with these tires, I took them off at 60-70% tread left and got another tire

TL;DR: A safe yet annoying to drive tire.
Exact tire label: 225/40R18 92Y XL FP "Made In Germany"
I'll start with the positive: these tires feel very safe in almost all conditions, even in light winter conditions.
They also feel safe on wet roads, both on lightly damp roads and in deep standing water, with very good aquaplaning resistance.
The dry grip is quite enjoyable in summer conditions, they steer very light and easy, my steering wheel became lighter after mounting these tires.
Now I have to address my negative experiences with these tires:
I immediately heard more rolling noise compared to the Michelin PS4 that these tires replaced, however the bump absorption and road feel is much better compared to PS4, they feel much softer.
On rough roads these Eagles sound like there's a window open, it's more of a heavy whooshing noise instead of a high pitch rolling noise.
Even Continental WinterContact TS850 P were much more comfortable and silent to drive on this car than the Eagle Asy6.
On wet roads and even on cold dry concrete roads the cornering traction is totally lacking, the tire feels like it's locking up as soon as it looses a little grip and it takes away all your speed causing very jerky grip when trying to corner fast, you can really feel the compound of this tire is not made for progressiveness during cornering.
Overall I'm extremely disappointed, they don't excel as a Touring tire neither as a Performance tire, it's hybrid tire that only excels at safety only in my opinion.

Michelin Pilot Sport 4 rated 83% while driving a BMW 330i
Driving on a combination of roads for 25000 spirited miles
Driving on a combination of roads for 25000 spirited miles
Replaced my PS4 a few months ago. Had them for 6 years but only around 40k km (25k miles). My car is lowered so the tires wear on the inside, especially the rears. The tires still had more than 40% of tread remaining on the outside and middle part, but completely worn on the inside. With stock height, I believe I could've got a lot more mileage out of them. One thing I notice about michelin tires, be it the PS4, PS4S, PSS, PS3 or primacy 3 and 4, they all show crack on the edges after 6 years, and it spread quickly to the point they start losing air. Bear in mind I live in a tropical climate. It's hot and humid, so it's pretty harsh on rubber.
Dry handling and grip is never an issue with the PS4. Traction control rarely kicked in. I previously had toyo t1 sport, and traction control kicked in a lot more frequently. Handling is balanced enough, but of course don't compare it to the PS4S which is in a different league.
Wet grip is pretty good for a summer tire. Never had any issue with aquaplaning. Not that I tried driving into a puddle. It can get a little jittery in the corner if you go too fast, but overall pretty good.
Overall great tires. I would easily recommend it to anyone.

Swapped to these tires after the original PS4 from the car tore a huge whole from cracking. Knew about these tires about the same time so decided to go with them as they were also a cheaper option in Malaysia.
Comparing these Phenoms with the PS4, I personally feel that they are very similar to the PS4 in terms of grip. The phenoms seem to be grippier than the PS4 in dry while loses slightly in the wet. They are also as noisy as the PS4 but thats not important.
treadwear is 380 and lasted me about 50,000km with some fun in the wet. Overall very satisfied with these tires priced at about RM500 per piece. Best bang for buck in my book as of now.

I've found that above 37-38 psi in very cold weather (around 0-4C) the tires were prone to sudden understeer in wet/greasy conditions (they were set to 39-40 after a service before I lowered them again to 36 for the rest of the winter. The sticker recommendation is 38). Aside from that niche case, at temperatures where really you need winters to be fair, I am extremely happy with these. Amazing grip and very good balanced handling on a mk7.5 GTI, the car is lovely under and at the limit with them. They do wear slightly faster than the Michelin Pilot sport 5 I had before on this FWD car but nothing alarming.
