Wanli Harmonic H220 rated 76% while driving a Great Wall Motors car brand"FAW Bestune",car model"NAT"
Driving on mostly country roads for 9000 average miles
Driving on mostly country roads for 9000 average miles
I personally think this tire is perfect for the rear wheels of front-wheel-drive cars.
This is the factory-fitted tire. It's soft and comfortable, with low rolling resistance, reduced power consumption, and excellent quietness. Its comfort level is probably comparable to the Continental Ultra Contact 7, but it's more comfortable and durable than the Kumho ES01 (KH27). My car is a front-wheel-drive electric vehicle, and with 14,000 kilometers, the front Wanli H220 tires show almost no signs of wear.
I put the Kumho ES01 on the rear axle (honestly, I'm still a Kumho fan), and after only a few thousand kilometers, a large, deep crack appeared on the Kumho ES01's tread. Fortunately, the dealer gave me half the purchase price as compensation.
The mileage on both pairs of tires with different tread patterns is less than 10,000 miles, so I can only speak subjectively about their durability. I'll provide further evaluations later.
The Wanli H220's wet braking performance is slightly weak, and its handling is mediocre (perhaps because my car is a multi-purpose vehicle). These are the only weaknesses I've noticed so far.
The performance isn't comparable to the more expensive Michelin Prima 5 and Continental UC7 (approximately 600 RMB), but at around 300 RMB per tire in China, it's definitely worth the price.
Compared to other affordable tires, this tire may be more suitable for pure electric vehicles.

Continental UltraContact rated 83% while driving a Toyota CHR Hybrid

Driving on mostly motorways for 29000 spirited miles
Hello from Thailand, I mostly drive Continental UC6 on motorway with the surface quality as average or below. I am not an always sporty driver just when it is the time. I list from my most impressive:
Compared to the Previous tires as dunlop ec300+, yokohama E70, michelin primacy4
1. Wet grip : in heavy rain I push it faster than other traffic and confident in long puddles 70-80 km/hr
2. Value : my priority is wet road performance b/c it is the most uncontrollable factor when you are on puddles and heavy brake. With half budget from primacy4, it is very preferable other great spec below as compliments in my priority list.
3. Durability with consistent tire feature : I rate it 2nd as primacy4 the best by noise and wear.
4. Comfort : I would say it will be a smooth drive until it end of life at 31,000 miles(I will have reached the safety limit on 31,000 mi / 2 years almost the same time by Sep’25). Previously, I did expect this value on the Michelin only.
5. Handling : when heavily make a lane change(turn and straight again in 1 sec), it feedbacks unstable in tires. The reason I guess due to it soft sidewall which is softer than primacy4.
To summarize, It is acceptable for me with it handling compensating the comfort. With others spec maintained only more stiff in handling, I would accept it as good in all performance. Until now, I have still fine tuned for the tire. Next one I will try Giti Control P90.
PS. Few words for the other tires: Yokohama (decibel) E70 ‘bad wet grip’ ‘not quiet as expect’ , Dunlop Enasave EC300+ ‘all average with stiffer sidewall as I want for my Conti UC6’ , Michelin Primacy 4 ‘all good with less confident on wet than Conti UC6’ ‘pricy tire’

Continental EcoContact 6 rated 47% while driving a Kia Motors Niro EV

Driving on a combination of roads for 22 easy going miles
These were supplied new on our 2023 Kia Niro EV. On inspection they appeared to have very shallow tread when new and now are up for replacement at only 36,000 Km of quiet economical driving (I'm 73 years old and used to enjoy seeing what a car could do but now I'm a confirmed user of active cruise control).
They would be the noisiest tire I have ever owned and I cannot recommend them in NZ. This is on New Zealand's coarse chip seal roads - on the limited stretches on asphalt available in the South Island they are the quietest tire I have ever owned - an unbelievable difference when driving from one surface to the other.

Tires were handling fine although I haven't tried other tires with this vehicle. Wear was extreme!! Totally worn out after 29000 km under mild driving behaviour and not a particularly high load.

Tire is a great choice, top notch quality with a great price. Lasted for more than 18,000 miles with fast driving. Grips incredible, especially taking in consideration its price. Definitely recommend them and buying them again.
Kleber Quadraxer 3 rated 77% while driving a Suzuki vitara s 1,4 boosterjet
Driving on mostly country roads for 30000 average miles
Driving on mostly country roads for 30000 average miles
Kleber is part of the Michelin group, so it is easy to see how the technology found in the cross-climate has trickled down to this tire. I currently drive a Suzuki Vitara 2019, and the bulk of my drive is done by the wife commuting and my two big trips a year from Scotland to Italy or Poland.
Motorway driving is on par with many other tires; the wind noise coming from the car is always louder than the tires themselves, so no trouble there; you get just a wee bit less fuel efficiency overall (compared to the more expensive choice), but it is nothing to transcendental, on the dry they are as good as you can imagine, you can get the edge of the grip quick enough(most probably is the car been heavier than a hatchback) but is relatively easy to understand and current, they give a good road feel and absorb potholes quite well, on the wet they are great, having directional tread (similar to corossclimate) it helps to dissipate the water and they have never felt unsafe or lacking grip.
The same goes for the snow. I took the car to the Alps last year, and it was a breeze. Traction control never had to engage, and the drive felt smooth and safe.
I've driven almost 30.000 miles and still have more than 3mm left on the tread. I'll probably get another set unless I find something more interesting to try.

Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 rated 84% while driving a Suzuki Vitara 1.4 GLX Mild Hybrid AllGrip

Driving on a combination of roads for 3100 easy going miles
Fitted on a Suzuki Vitara 2021 4X4 to replace the manufacture's Continental Ecocontact 5. First time on an all-season tire on a relatively mild climate with average to bad quality roads in Greece. The tire performs excellent on dry almost like a summer tire with more noise. Wet handling is also very good with no surprises and felt very confident. I also drove light snow and the handling was great compared to a summer tire but average compared to a winter one, although if you don't push it, it will do the job, haven't tried ice. I also did a bit of offroading in muddy conditions and with the combination of Suzuki allgrip it was very good, way better than the OEM tires. I have only done about 5k km because I switch to summer one's on late spring, so far wear seems normal. I would definitely buy again as it was the cheapest choice of premium all-season tire I could get for my size and overall for mild winter conditions it's an excellent tire.

Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance 2 rated 95% while driving a Toyota Avensis estate 1.8 petrol

Driving on mostly motorways for 1000 easy going miles
I have been driving my Goodyear Efficientgrip Performance 2 (215/55 R17 94W) for about 1000 miles and I'm quite surprised with the quiet and comfortable ride they deliver, a real premium experience. I have to admit that they struggle a bit on wet braking, but the rolling resistance is impressive, as the car kept the same fuel consumption as with the smaller OEM Michelin (205/60 R16 92V).
Yokohama BluEarth GT AE51 rated 79% while driving a Honda Odyssey
Driving on mostly town for 20000 average miles
Driving on mostly town for 20000 average miles
Good choice for light passenger vehicles. Grip performance is above average in both dry and wet conditions. If your tires side profile are 50+, highly recommended to pump up to 35 - 37 PSI, while the manufacturer says 32 - 36 PSI. It provides a very clear and solid traction on both highway and city corners. If it is a front wheel drive, you might need to check the wear around 30000 km, especially the edge toes. However the back wheels are still with 80%+ tread. Hence it is perfect for those light 4 wheel drive although I have not tried on them. These GT tires are designed for summer touring so they are pretty quiet and comfort, compare to other mid-high range brands. They are good quality in general and drived with confidence.
Toyo Celsius rated 86% while driving a Toyota Verso
Driving on a combination of roads for 40000 spirited miles
Driving on a combination of roads for 40000 spirited miles
Bought 4 x Toyo Celsius in early 2022 and in April 2025 they have now covered nearly 40,000 miles and are down at 3mm tread depth all round having rotated them twice a year.
They've driven from Lancashire UK to France, Belgium, Netherlands, Germany, Denmark, Sweden & Norway - almost 4,000 miles.
They have recently returned from a trip round France, Italy, Switzerland & Germany - 3,000 miles.
The Made-in-Japan Celsius delivers a smooth, comfortable, quiet ride that helps the miles pass by with ease.
They track a neat line round long corners without the need for minor corrections and it'll drive in a straight line for 100s and 100s of metres with your hands off the steering wheel . . . it's a great tire to drive long distances with. Minimal effort is required making it a relaxed touring companion.
In winter it's always gotten us home from wherever we've been. And we live in the hills where, come snowfall, 99% of people don't venture out in their cars. The deepest snow the tire has seen is about 4 to 6 inches and traction and braking were impressive. The aggressive tread design and traction claws obviously help inspire confidence in these conditions.
In the wet, standing water doesn't throw the car off line and motorway driving in heavy rain is surefooted.
Again, dry weather poses no issues for the tires which have seen +35deg C and the tread blocks have remained stiff enough for you to enjoy fast B-roads in the summer.
It's a well-engineered tire (each wheel is balanced with just 10 to 15 grams of weights in total). Most other tires we've owned (Bridgestone/Goodyear) required 30 to 50 grams in wheel weights.
We're due to get some new tires come October/November but we'll have to get a different brand because when I've looked Toyo Celsius are regularly unavailable in the UK in the tire size we need. Tire Leader, Mytires, Black Circles, Camskill and even a local tire fitter who specialises in Toyo tires can't get their hands on them.
I thoroughly recommend the Celsius if you're looking at Toyo as a potential purchase - assuming you can get hold of them!

I have a much better grip on ice and wet conditions now. The tire noise significantly less than the stock tires on the highway. I can now hear the media at lower volumes compared to the stock Kumho solus ta31 tires.
