A list of recommended/ popular replacement tires?

Hi! Did you find any options? I only have 29,000 miles but would love some tires that make a quieter ride. Thanks!

 

I just purchased a new set. I just turned 50k on my 14

I was gonna go with a cheap set, but I figured why?
The OG lasted 6 years and 50k

So I opted for the
YOKOHAMA AVID ASCEND GT
$83 each on amazon right now, so I grabbed them
Will prob put them on this or next week.
...hopes im happy with them

 

Good luck with these! I don’t even know what tires are on mine. Some kind of good year I guess. Please report back on how how you find the new tires work if you can. Thank you!

 

Right now I have a pair of Hankook Optimo tires that were on my Prius c when I bought it 6 months ago. They're solid tires, I find they drive really well in the rain, and I got great mpg in the spring and summer months.

Yesterday I purchased a set of Michelin X-Ice Xi3 for winter. I guess they're being replaced by X-Ice Snow in 2020, but I still went with the Xi3 because of all the glowing reviews I read. Quite a few reviews noted they ride pretty quiet for a snow tire. I'll put them on next month.

 

Hi members!
I too in the hunt for some tires, 2013 with 70k km on the clock. Tires seem to be the original set. They would have lasted for another 6 months before my mechanical inspection but my alignment seem to be off because the outer edge of both my front tire is bald. I also do park my car in B7 and my garage spiral is a oval circuit so I guess going up and down that 3 times a day can wear them out, hopefully some toe out and camber adjustment can help with the issue.
I have the Yokohama ones. 175 65 15.
Thinking about going for some 185 60 15 since they are more common. But would hope to stick with the thin profile with higher sidewall for the ride. Noise and tire life is of importance, grip here in Asia is not that big of a deal, usually traffic and hot. With just over 100hps dont think I'll be pulling much corners.

 

you might want to try more inflation to get wear more towards the center of the tire..
a thinner taller tire is going to be better with less rolling resistance surface area plus should last a little longer having a larger circumference.

 

What's the specs on the Yoko's, treadwear, temp, Trac, load, speed....

 

The Yoko Avid Ascend GT all seasons were about the only tire that were mentioned on PC here for the "c"
Looks like they really have come down in price in past year.
