I have read good things lately with Good/Year Tires. I hope that G/Y is turning things around as I would like to buy them again if possible.
I am not a fan of G/Y tires for what they cost and the poor dependability that they have given me over the last 35+ years. I keep trying them and giving them another chance.
At one time, all 4 of my vehicles had G/Y tires all at the same time and they all sucked. And I was buying Good/Better G/Y tire too, not low line G/Y tires!
Right now, only one of my vehicles has G/Y tires on it and I have to say that they're doing the best thus far. G/Y Assurance Comfort Tread(G/Y ACT's I call'em). 3 plus years(can't remember the miles on'em) and they're doing OK!
Previously this car in particular had(OE), Integrity's and they sucked in everything except ride/quiet. I got rid of them early just because they sucked so bad is the wet even when new. And at every corner, I had to crawl otherwise the car felt like it was going to rollover(almost!) and wandered on the hiwy all the time. Never felt stable.
But, every G/Y tire that I have owned over the many years and many tires, experienced belt seperation or uneven wear or couldn't keep'em balanced or something!!! Always something!
G/Y tires in my experience, never seemed to be a "diverse" tire(I could have said...well rounded or well balanced) but, they seemed to do only 1 or 2 things well(or just OK) rather than many things well. That's OK if you only want a tire to roll down the street and are Black! And I seemed to pay alot of money for them with no satisfaction in the product.
Today, I beleive that G/Y is making a better tire than ever before in many catigories of tires(HP/Summer, Truck/SUV, Strandard Touring/Touring etc.) I may consider them again in the future as I always have given them another chance time and time again, even though I keep moving to other brands.
