Good to know. I have 3 cars that take this size but none of them need tires right now. The ones on my eGolf have LOTS of life left.

Great price, but I would avoid these. They came standard on my 2020 Subaru Forester. They ride nice and are pretty quiet. As far as wet and dry traction, just fair. On TireRack, the "would you recommend" is a 4.8 out of 10.
I have two vehicles with this tire size. I recommend either the Hankook V12 Evo2's or the Michelin Pilot AS/3+.

And? Fuel economy vs. Traction. Just an opinion.

I had these tires on my Nissan Leaf. They are very good at the LRR thing - I got better range with these tires than the other tires I tried. But otherwise, they're pretty bad. Traction is terrible, especially in wet weather. Handling is poor. Only get these if you place fuel economy as the most important factor above all others.

I agree these are good LRR tires. Ive had 2 sets on my prius both lasted 60k which i feel is good for a LRR tire. But I rotate every 5k like clockwork too. I feel they handle weather ok, im sure there is better and im sure there is worse. Mpg is good on them i always get 55 on my prius in warmer weather.
