Review on Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance 2 205/55 R16 94W summer by Micha Puzio ᠌

I changed it in the middle of the season and took PremiumContact 6 to replace the tired Continentals. PremiumKontakt6 is an excellent tire: quiet, soft and at the same time amazingly rulitsya, ideally keeps the trajectory, does not depend on temperature changes like Michelin Primacy3, but there is a big minus: shot-blasted arches. And a few minor disadvantages: it does not like puddles and heavy rain, it is harsh on small bumps and rough asphalt, it requires regular rebalancing as it wears out. There were also ContiPremium Contact5, Michelin Primacy3, Toyo CF2, Nokian. When choosing, I looked at the tests of ADAC, Auto Bild, Test World 2022, Vi Bilagare and others. Chose Goodyear between Continentals, Michelins, Bridges. I liked Performance 2 because the balance of characteristics they have is more interesting for me than competitors. According to the first sensations, right after the Continentals: Goodear is definitely more comfortable. Uneven asphalt, small joints, bumps are passed on it much softer and more comfortable than the Continentals and Michelins. Less vibration, smoother ride a level up. Tires are quieter, especially on bad pavement. It's a little more rolly and doesn't steer as crisply as the Premium6 or Primacy3. Trajectory on the track keeps not as stubborn as Conti, but also good. Ideal for trails and long hauls. Braking is softer and not as aggressive as on the Continentals (on Premium6 there is not enough braking until a certain point, and then immediately a stake) September 2022: Having driven more on this rubber: it is not afraid of temperature changes. The impression is that at +15 . +20 it is better than at temperatures over +30. The rubber is really wobbly. What they write about the fact that after installing these tires the car is blown away by the wind or sways from passing trucks is true - the car sways on the tires like on springs. This is the price you pay for a high level of comfort. I would not dare to put on a tall car. For a light puzoter, if you need comfort, silence, a resource, coupled with a good balance of braking performance and road behavior, these tires are the most important safety. I don't regret buying it at all.
