I think I understand more about tire noise. There are two types of noise. The rolling noise and the hard hitting noise of tires hitting potholes and other irregularities in the road. The rolling noise is low. The bumps are like what I am used to maybe better at deadening noise. There is something about these tires that make it very hard to relax and drive in a straight line. I have had almost all the front suspension parts replaced and alignment done twice and it is still a chore to drive. It is no fun to drive. Before I got the new tires, parts and alignment I used to enjoy driving this car. I own 5 other vehicles including this one now and I have never had tires make such a difference that I don't even want to drive it any more.

Replaced OEM tires on 2016 Honda CRV Awd touring with these. What a change! Almost zero road noise and a lot better ride. Not so harsh on rough roads. Excellent wet weather traction. At 6500 miles I couldn't be more satisfied. We'll see how they do in snow. I would highly recommend theses tires!

The Goodyear Assurance Comfortdrive tire is absolutely the best tire for quetness, smooth driving, and stability. IASs a former Nissan and Volkswagen dealer, I have a lot of experience with a variety of tires. From the moment you first drive with this set of tires you notice the low level of tire noise that is produced. I would estimate that it is 50% quieter than the Michelin tires I had. You also notice that the tires run very smooth down the road. There's a feeling of stability, especially at highway speeds. I realixe that in reading these consumer ratings there are some who are critical, however I believe that my objective evaluation here clearly points to these tires being superior in low noise, smooth operation, and stabilty.

Have had assurance touring model on 3 cars and tires were great. Easily get 80 k Had a screw in my 2015 Lexus ES 350 and had to place one comfort drive on with the other three comfort touring. Supposedly the comfort drive was the exact replacement for the discontinued comfort touring . Have about 78000 miles on the comfort touring and about 55000 on the comfort drive. Here's the kicker , the comfort touring with the 78000 miles has much more tread left than the 55000 mile comfort drive. Tires were religiously rotated regularly. Would love to get the assurance comfort touring but I guess Goodyear realized it was too good and gave us consumers way more miles than they figured on . At least that's my 2 cents

I purchase this model of tire thinking being the first came out. Lol so 2 set of tires are really but 2 other tires are just almost bald and I even rotated the tires, balances and alignments. These tires are highway driven. But buyer beware but what is funny. I ask my brother who works at the Goodyear Plant and he said that is why I don't buy Goodyear tires. He buys Hankook tires for his car. Well lesson learned too funny my brother doesn't like Goodyear tires and he works for them. He said that Goodyear tires are trash and I wasted money on a set of 4. No more business from me on Goodyear tires for daily driving. Had these tires for about 1 1/2 years. Not cool

You know the old saying "you only get what you pay for" Well I always tried to get the highest milage expectation for the lowest price. Every time I would end up being dissatisfied with the road noise or stiff ride. This time I decided to focus on ride comfort and quiet road noise. I selected Goodyear's "ComfortDrive". I couldn't be happier to this point, as advertised performance! The ride seems to be better now than at any time that I've owned this Maxima in the past 9 years. By the way, it's nice to be so happy with a purchase that you want to write a good review! Scott V

These tires give a smooth ride and are super quiet but the gas mileage is awful. I make the same trip regularly, setting my cruise control on the same speed every time. I went from getting over 37 mpg on the trip to 32 mpg on these tires. That's a big difference. I hear that others have the same problem. I regret my purchase!

These tires are very smooth and quiet on dry pavement and really earn the "ComfortDrive" name as they are whisper quiet. They also provide excellent traction and confidence on wet pavement. I'm retired, so I mainly avoid driving in the snow. But I have driven them in light snow, and they felt reasonably secure with good traction. I've had them around 8 months and put only 5,000 miles on them, so I really can't comment on the tread life. IN SUMMARY: they're great for dry roads, great for wet roads, and OK for snow-covered roads, so they fit my driving very well. I love them!

These tires have excellent grip, are very quiet, and kill road feel. There's no driver feedback, and it just deadens everything, isolating the car from the road 100%. Handling is mildly vague. They certainly take all the fun out of driving, so if you like a playful or sporty handling car, this is not your tire. But if you prize a quiet, sedate, soft ride with excellent traction and don't care about sportiness or feeling the road, this is about as good as it gets.

Size Tire is 255-19-40. Goodyear Comfort Ride. Got this tires in Sept. 2022. I have always had Michelin Tires for 20 years. I wont anymore. I have a "sport" suspension so it is a little stiffer ride, but I put on these Goodyear Comfort Ride tires and I really notice the difference in a nice smoother ride. I like them better for several reasons: 1) The ride is much nicer (not as stiff) and much quieter . 2)The Winter traction is MUCH BETTER and handles great. 3) The treadwear is 60,000 miles whereas the Michelin were 45,000 miles. My Michelin tires didnt even come close to the treadwear warranty. I had to replace them at 32,000....that has been an issue for Michelin over the past years if you read other comments about them and their tire warranty issues. 4) Rain traction is wonderful. Only negative : Handling on dry pavement on sharp turns is not as nice (but I am not a fast driver) and I get overall 2-3 less mpg on these tires. I will put them on my wife's car next.
