Review on Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance 2 205/55 R16 94W summer by Stanisaw Lewczuk ᠌

I will try to substantiate my assessment in the comments. Having made Shumkov on my car, I realized that I could not do without changing the hard regular tires to softer and quieter ones. After reading reviews and tests decided to take Goodyear. By the way, before that there were Bridgestone Turansa T001 in size 225/45/17. Having left and tire fitting, I could not believe my ears - it really became somehow quieter. Rough asphalt with protruding gravel is softer, fewer shocks to the suspension. On the old ones, I just felt how everything vibrates. But here, as always, there is a big "but" . Literally a day later, some doubts began to creep in, maybe of course it’s not customary that if the car standing on the handbrake is slightly pushed to the side, then it starts to vibrate like jelly (it may not affect driving performance, but strange). This is just the reverse side of the softness of the sidewalls. But the most important thing: for a couple of days I tried to understand, but has it become quieter? It seems quieter, but somehow very strange and seems to be louder. And the reason is just that the noise has moved from medium and high frequencies to low, very low ones. There was a real rumble (on bad asphalt). Asphalt joints work out gently, but with a characteristic low-frequency ringing. If earlier it was "tyk-tyk", now it's "pum-pum". You can imagine if you hit a polyethylene swim ring (there will be a hard hit) and a rubber bladder (softly, but with a characteristic sound). Everything would be fine, but this low-frequency sound puts a lot of pressure on the eardrums. I am not kidding. Ears really hurt. It may depend on the size, but I tried different pressures from 2.2 to 2.5 and there is no difference. Unfortunately, I already managed to sell my old ones, but it is no longer possible to ride on these.
