Best Tires for the Honda Stream

my best set of tires I have ever owned, tanks potholes really well, no sidewall damage and I can count the puntures I have had on one hand. The wear got reduced due to bad alignement that meant it wore more on the inside than the outside, otherwise these tires would have lasted upto 80,000km. Very comfortable driving on them, road noise is also quite good, not too loud.

My only gripe is when you push them hard on a very hot day they don't have as much grip as the goodyear Eagle F1 Assymmetric 5 that I used to own, and they are also heavier which affects acceleration on my Honda Stream.

But these are really excellent tires, I would classify them as premium touring tires.

Compared 185/60R15 size with Michelin XM2+, Pirelli Cinturato Rosso is quieter than Michelin XM2+

Dangerous. Rubbish in dry ABS kept kicking in. Slip all over in the wet - I'm taking pootling about at 30mph. The front and the back has lost it back going round roundabouts. Took them off after a couple of weeks. We have 2 Honda Streams so I know what they should drive like. The are fine with Bridgestone Turanza, Goodyear efficient grip, Landsail LS388 (yes- no bother whatsoever with these), and Michelin Cross Climate. The only other tires I have had to remove were Khumo Ecowing from the rear as the back end would lose grip on them.

I had a pair of these put on the front of a front wheel drive Honda stream, they seemed ok so got some put on the back when needed. These are the worst tire I have ever had. The back end slips on slightest corners, roundabouts, etc. and this is at normal speeds and even in dry conditions - you can hear them screech when it is dry. They were so bad I took them off the back, this is the only time I have ever taken a tire off, and I have had some rubbish in my time! They are ok on the front, and seem to grip where they are pointed, but for the back have no lateral grip whatsoever. They start to split in the tread too as they wear.

I have had Bridgestone Turanza (very average, not great) Goodyear efficient grip, and Landsail LS388 (don't knock them until you have tried them), and both of the Goodyear and Landsail stick to the road at all times, but the Goodyear don't last too long on the front.

Had my first set of Nokian Z G2 215/55ZR17 (Made in Russia) fitted on my car for the past 4 years after reading the good reviews. However, after the 2nd year or approx 20,000 miles of rolling on city (70%)/highway (30%), the tires became quite noisy. After the 3rd year, the tires show signs of cracks and uneven wear although I performed wheel balancing and rotation for every 10,000 km. What surprises me is the tires had very uneven wear and the inner blocks surface were high and low during one of the my regular wheel balancing and rotation. Mechanic checked my wheel alignment and there is nothing wrong. TIll now, I do not know why this set of tires have so much uneven wear. I have used different types of tires in the past (bridgestone, yokohama, michelin, falken, goodyear, dunlop) but never encounter this phenomenon before, Although the wear indicator is still showing 5 to 6 (almost new) for the tires with 70% thread depth left, I decided to change the tires as the tires was getting too noisy.

Yokohama E70B dB decibel 93V (Made in Japan) is a touring tire which is very quiet and comfort bias. After fitting 4 brand new tires onto my Honda 2 liter MPV, my ride on the move is so quiet that engine noise becomes more noticeable. This is definitely a comfort tire suitable for daily commute and long distance touring. Previously my car was fitted with Nokian Z G2 which has uneven wear and noisy. WIth this set of tires, the drive becomes more relaxing and audio quality has improved. There is no longer the need to turn up the volume. Grip on dry and wet roads is very good. Previously I have fitted & experieced bridegstone, nokian, pirelli, falken, michelin, dunlop, goodyear tires. I have experience in driving both left hand and right hand sides on roads in Europe to Asia to USA to Australia. From naturally aspirated engine to turbo charged 350HP sports car. It goes without saying that the world best gripping tires will not help if the driver does not keep a safe distance and pay attention on the roads.
