These tires came on my wifes 2023 Blazer. Had flats on 3 out if four. Tires are very soft when trying to plug. Put all new tires on Blazer at 6,000 miles at my own expense

Nokian One rated 87% while driving a Nissan Murano
Driving on a combination of roads for 50000 average miles
I'm comparing these tires to the OE Michelin Latitude Touring. I currently have 20,000 on these tires and I have very little criticism of them as you can see in the review. The biggest issue with them is that under extreme dry cornering they feel a little uneasy (kind of like floating), but not where you think you would loose control. The best aspect of the tires are how good they ride and how quiet they are. The Nokian were half the price of the Michelin and they perform like tires double the price.

Continental Cross Contact LX Sport rated 40% while driving a Nissan Pathfinder
Driving on a combination of roads for 9000 spirited miles
Not impressed, slip in the corners under speed limit conditions around town, hold ok on the open road but a little nervous now i know they do not hold terribly well at low speeds, especially in the wet. actively looking for a replacement tire as we speak....

Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 SUV rated NAN% while driving a Volkswagen Touareg
Driving on mostly town for 6000 average miles
Took original Pirelli Scorpions off vague steering and poor cornering fitted Eagle F1 much better steering response and better feel whilst cornering.

Michelin Latitude Sport 3 rated 83% while driving a Nissan Murano
Driving on mostly motorways for 25000 average miles
235/65/R18 on Nissan Murano 3.5 Auto.

Done 25k miles on these and they have been very good. Front down to about 3.5mm and rears at 4.5mm. Could probably get a bit more out of them if we swapped them around and might do that for summer but I will replace before winter.

At £525 fitted at Costco in July 2016 they have been a good buy but this tire has now been replaced with the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 SUV so I will look at them though I could buy the Latitude 3 again.

Kumho KL33 rated NAN% while driving a Nissan
Driving on mostly motorways for 0 average miles
I have just bought the kumho kl33 4 pieces yesterday. the road noise is very terrible. I will never go for kumho ever again in my life and wouldn't recommend anyone else for this brand.
very very disappointed with the road noise. I have to really switch on the music at high volume to overcome the terrible road noise.

Falken ZE912 rated 47% while driving a Nissan Murano
Driving on mostly motorways for 14000 average miles
Noisy if compared to previous tires I used. Grip, high speed handling are also not to my expectation. Will use other brand of product next time.
