Current Tire Recommendation List?

Hi everyone,

A few years ago, I stumbled across a very comprehensive list of recommended tires here in the forums. I found the information to be very informative and used the information to decide on the purchase of Bridgestone Ecopia 422 tires for my 2010 Prius. I was able to get 65k from them with no complaints.

I then decided to purchase the Ecopia 422+ in May of 2017 and currently have about 43k on these tires. I don't know what is different, but I have not been happy with this set of tires. They are more noisy and are wearing very oddly. The outer edge of one of the tires is worn significantly more than the rest of the tire or other tires on the vehicle. I have my Prius serviced at the local dealership (they treat me very well and I trust them) and they believe the odd wear is a tire issue as there is no issues with the alignment or anything else that would cause this.

Unfortunately, I did not purchase the tires from the dealership (Sam's club had a nice sale).

All of this being said, I am interested in getting feedback on this tire in particular (Ecopia 422+) as well as recommendations for an "eco" summer tire. I live up north, but use a dedicated winter set of tires for the snow. Any and all input is appreciated. Thank you!
