The eNTYRE 2.0 tires were purchased as replacements for the OEM Goodyear Assurance tires. These tires do not have a lot of miles but have been through three real seasons already, including a much colder and snowier winter than normal here in the mid-Atlantic USA. They are probably the best performing all season tires that I've had on a sedan, across a wide range of weather and temperature conditions. They are certainly the best value: premium performance at a mid-range price. The first thing I noticed as soon as I got them installed is how quiet they are; on open road, I'll only hear wind and muffled engine noise. In terms of other NVH impressions, they are very comfortable and make up for the somewhat harsh ride of the Accord; there are no odd vibrations of any sort thus far. No signs of premature wear on them; they look new at over 800 miles in. Warm and dry handling is very sharp and predictable, close to what I would expect for a summer tire. Wet handling is excellent and very close to dry handling; they barely slow down in standing water and it would probably require a lake to get them to hydroplane. Cold (below freezing) and dry handling is very good, with a little more vagueness compared to warmer temperatures. The snow and slush handling was a revelation; I never expected non-snowflake tires to work this well. They were able to handle about 4-inches of unplowed snow with relative calm and hinted at slipping only when driving on steep inclines/declines. In slush and on plowed roads, the tires handled similarly to rainy conditions; no scary surprises in handling. They struggle on ice but they have a pleasant habit of staying straight (no lateral squirming) while the claws in the tread bite for grip; they will get grip pretty quickly if it's a thin layer of ice. I highly recommend the eNTYRE 2.0 for anyone looking for a mix of touring comfort and summer tire level handling, and live in an area that sees below freezing temperatures and occasional snow during winter.

The tires are on a Toyota Prius, and the Prius is a fairly quiet car. The first thing I noticed when driving on these tires is how loud they are. It is like sitting in a room with a noise oscillator and the volume turned up to 80dbs (decibels) inside the car. I feel like I have to yell to talk to the person next to me. That being said, they are a fairly comfortable tire, but I would not say they are as comfortable as a Goodyear and far from a Michelin. They are wearing well and would be a good tire for someone that is taking a lot of trips and high mileage. I would not recommend these tires because I believe there are tires that are better for just a smaller margin in price.
