Review on MICHELIN Latitude Tour HP 215/65 R16 98H summer by Micha Mitrut ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Mediocre goods, most likely I will not use.

I went online and read a number of reviews about this rubber, and while some people were really pleased with it, others were extremely dissatisfied. I'll take care of my part. To begin, I have tires that were manufactured in Poland. 215/70 R16. acquired in brand-new condition. It turned out later that it is very crucial to know exactly who the producer of rubber is since this influences the product's quality and explains why there is such variation in the reviews. Because the rubber is already rather tough, there is no use in discussing its softness; in order to make it more pliable, the pressure should be lowered to 2.1., but there is no need to do so. But despite its public profile, it operates very smoothly on the road. Absolutely no roll, and the sidewalls are quite soft. It seemed like she was trying to keep a low profile. The thing that impressed me the most about this rubber, though, was how well it performed on a wet road and track. Both the braking and handling were performed really well. I felt very comfortable spitting in the left lane of the Ring Road even when there was heavy rain falling, and the puddles that formed in the rut did not disturb me in the least. As a child, I had a positive attitude toward the rain in general. The rubber performed admirably in snow and slush throughout the winter because it is all-weather and did not lose its luster when exposed to frost. I went ahead and switched my shoes out for winter footwear even before it was officially winter. However, the second season brought up several disappointing events: 1) The tread started to flake off, and eventually it was in shards. This is a problem that plagues this particular model, as seen by the numerous reviews that mention it. 2) After 20,000 runs, the rubber was worn down by fifty percent and had lost its dignity. 3) I let up on the brakes while driving on the wet road, and hydroplaning started happening at a speed of more than 80 kilometers per hour. 4) Became more boisterous. The total mileage was probably around 35,000 over the course of two seasons. Although it does not look to be in terrible shape, maintaining the tread, and ensuring that no hernias have developed, it is time to replace it. Disappointed by the rapid wear and, as a consequence, the loss of their merits.

Pros
  • Only when it is brand new is it able to withstand a damp road and the initial snowfall. Pretty quiet. Uninterested in the music being played.
Cons
  • Rapid degeneration. Rigid. The protection can be removed by peeling it.
