Given 51% while driving a Honda CRV (225/65 R17) on a combination of roads for 30,000 average miles
Scarily poor wet grip, will spin in 3rd gear and every junction and that's driving normally. Only positive is very hard wearing

Given 80% while driving a Honda 2009 CRV (225/65 R17) on mostly motorways for 25,000 average miles
Tire chunking happened after 3 years.

Road noise became apparent after 2 years.

Grip is still good for both wet and dry road conditions.

Good tires but would be wary because of the tire chunking/flaking issue. (Could be user-induced but Im not quite aure)

Given 83% while driving a Honda CRV 2.0 2009 (225/45 R17) on mostly motorways for 27,000 easy going miles
Bought a set of 4 in Nov 2013. They were quite and grippy.

After a year, they started to get noisy but grip was still superb both on wet and dry condotions.

After 2 years, tread groove cracks started to happen. (I live in the Philippines though as summer temp can reach as high as 40 deg celsius so roads can be scorching hot.

Will be replacing them now for peace of mind

Given 52% while driving a Honda CR V III (225/65 R17) on mostly motorways for 69 easy going miles
1. grip wet and dry road performance are good
2. The performance of the fuel in the 90KM / H no significant difference can reach 16KM / L, but in the dry ground , the speed at 110KM fuel consumption is reduced to less than the speed 12KM / L, wet pavement performance is up to 15KM / L, the overall fuel consumption for the project performance is not satisfactory. increase fuel consumption by 25%.
3. In the comfort of the project , there is no better than the original tire performance , but it is easy to noisy vibration .
4. The wear rate performance is good, but because of an increase of 25 % of fuel consumption , will spend more money on the part of oil resources .

Overall, if both run on a wet road is safe and appropriate , on a dry road surface noise is adversely on fuel consumption and comfort

Given 25% while driving a Nissan X Trail 2.5 petrol (215/65 R16) on mostly town for 35,000 easy going miles
On a Nissan Xtrail. Paid top price for them $220 AUD a corner. Supposedly a 90/10 road off road tyre.
second worst tyre I've ever owned, the worst being retreads I got for free.
WIthin 5,000 kms they were chewed out from going on a 1km stretch of gravel once a month.
Goodyear shop advised they shouldn't be used on gravel...even though they sold them to me for that purpose.
They lasted 55,000 kms in total.
They were quiet for the first ~10,000 and got progressively louder, they are now very loud.

Grip in dry is bad, in wet is terrible. I easily spin wheels in the dry on a slight incline.
I'll never buy goodyear again after this. Which is a shame cause the best tyres I've ever had were goodyear (F1 eagle I think the were...that was 15 years ago)

Given 64% while driving a Subaru Outback 2009 (225/60 R17 H) on a combination of roads for 15,000 average miles
Bought six, lost three, unreliable. It have really bad side. Two times i accidentally run flat less then 100m and side was completely destroyed. And one time the finger thick stick pinched huge patch in the side wall. I see that people sell used tires for 4x4. I will do this too, because such tires can kill me and/or my car.

Given 96% while driving a Jeep Patriot (215/60 R17 H) on mostly country roads for 2,000 spirited miles
Put a set on my jeep patriot and the grip was unbelievable! Drove like a sports car, chucked it into corners and it just gripped, never found the limit before I sold the car. Really good tyres, did a bit off soft off roading and they performed well, never spun or struggled for traction. Would definitely recommend to anyone over any other tyres I tried on the jeep, especially the continentals it originally came with

Bought the Goodyear EfficientGrip SUV in end of 2013 on my Toyota RAV4.After 50,000 km,the tread depth remain 5.1 mm in average for the 4 tires which is very good wear for me.The noise and comfort performs well which is better than the origional equipment tire(Michelin Latitude HP).The wet/dry grip is satisfied me as well.

Given 93% while driving a Land Rover Discovery 3 (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 195 spirited miles
Discovery 3 2.7 D , Put two on the rear they have done 40K miles, two on the front have done 20k miles with 5m of tread left. Putting two more on the rear again. Wet grip fantastic, dry grip fantastic. Road noise low. The car is four wheel aligned and pressures are checked regularly. Had car since new and done 195K miles. These have been the best set of tyres so far.

Given 61% while driving a Nissan Qashqai (215/65 R16 H) on a combination of roads for 9,800 average miles
Bought these after after I couldn't get my trusty Gppdyear HP AW in my size anymore. This is a replacement for them.
After reading reviews, seeking advice from various fitters and retailers I decided to take a punt!
Worst £200 I've spent.
Less than a year, less than 10K miles and they're through.
Noisy, slippery and un responsive.
Dissaponting decision
