Renault 5 Tire Review Highlights
Writing about the Goodyear DuraGrip given 79% (155-70-13-T)
Driving on a combination of roads for 15000 average miles
I bought these Goodyear Duragrip and made about 20.000 km in 4 years. In town, motorway and also curvy mountain roads. When they were new I was able to climb a hill even in snow, where my newer station wagon didn't make it even with winter tires (Goodyear Ultragrip 7+, 2years old)! The grip was always very good.
Then (after buying a new car) I parked it in my garage with still 6 mm of profile left.
Five years later I re-registered that old Renault R5, tires still look good, no cracks at all, I don't even feel any shaking at higher speed! But now they are about 10 years old and in a little faster driven turns it doesn't hold well anymore. It's time for a new set. For a higher millage i would defintely buy Goodyear, but for yearly max 2.000 of sunday-driven kilometers I will probbably choose a cheaper brand.

Writing about the Michelin Energy E3B given 90% (145-70-13-T)
Driving on a combination of roads for 5000 spirited miles
Went from Sava Effecta+ to this tire. Amazing difference. This tires shoot water abou 1,5-2m tall on wet road and grip it and don't let go. Not as good on dry as I was expecting, but just slightly. Excelent tire non the less. It is a bit expensive, but it is well worth it. I never felt aquaplaning ever since I got this tires and I am very happy.

Good Tire for the price, and good tire overall! Only going to get rid of them because they are bald. Bought them used though

Driving on a combination of roads for 18000 average miles
Good all rounders imo, rear tires still have loads of rubber left, very pleased with them :). I've used the same brand for around 11years and lost more than a few people in the corners in that time ;) lol.
