Review on MICHELIN Latitude Tour HP 265/65 R17 110 year old by Adam Czajkowski ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

High-quality product, the price corresponds to the quality.

My own experiences and observations lead me to believe that the quality is highly influenced by the nation in which the product was manufactured. It would appear that not all Mishka manufacturers adhere to the same standards of quality control and technology, despite the fact that this is repeatedly said to be the case. The exact same model is manufactured in many nations, yet each one has a unique speed index for some reason. Before making a purchase, I went for a ride with a buddy on the same model of rubber with the "H" index (up to 210 kilometers per hour in Poland) - it was loud and it was challenging. I had previously been considering not going through with the purchase. But I was sure in my notion, so I went ahead and purchased it, but I got it with the index "V" (up to 240 kilometers per hour in Hungary). I was correct in my assessment. When we first switched to our new shoes, we were particularly struck by how much more peaceful and gentle the environment was. Even when compared to my last set of tires, the Hankook Ventus ST, which I thought were pretty soft and didn't start booming until I reached 120 kilometers per hour, I find that the Bear steers noticeably more plainly. The sound of the wheel, which appeared to have cotton wool stuffed inside of it, the road, and minor bumps moved away and grew significantly quieter and more muted as they traveled further. And in terms of its softness, if in the past Hankook did not pump up by 0.1-0.2 atm from the number that was recommended by the manufacturer in order to achieve comfort, now I pump the bear a little by 0.1, and it still goes much softer than it did before. Happy like an elephant. Touareg 3.0 TDI on pneumatic tires is the Z. Y. Auto model. Wheels have 255/55R18 109V N1 tires.

Pros
  • Smooth, quiet, and with a level of handling that's virtually on par with sports cars.
Cons
  • Price. The difference in characteristics that can occur depending on the nation in which the product was manufactured.
