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.

These tires are great for our Sienna minivan. We've driven a minivan for 16 years and have tried many types of tires. These are the quietest, smoothest, easiest to handle tires we've had. They do wear quick but last longer than other types we've tried. We purchase them at Just Tires and normally will have some warranty coverage when we have to replace all 4, which helps the price. We just put in our third set.

I have been in the Automotive field for over 40 years as a Mechanic then a Service Director and a Automotive reviewer - this tire handles great in rain , the most forgiving harsh pot hole ride, and by far the quietest ride, I had Michelins on my latest sedan and they were pretty quiet but these ComfotDrive's tires are 8 decibel lower when comparing a tires with 5-6,000 miles on them with my meter .I will see how they are in the snow this winter - they should be good because they have the deepest grooves/ tread of any all-season out there .I will update after this winter season.

These tires are the exact opposite of how they are advertised. My SUV went from having the quietest, smoothest ride of any vehicle I've ever owned to riding like a jalopy. Instantly I noticed the sound of the tires in the parking lot. So loud! Then the tires emphasized every little bump, literally bouncing me around in my seat.

Replaced Michelin Primacy that were standard on my Honda Accord. I expected similar levels of handling, comfort, and sound. Both sound levels and comfort seem unchanged from the Michelin, but I was shocked by the more responsive steering with the Goodyear Assurance ComfortDrive. At the first left hand turn at a traffic light, I noticed an unexpected difference in responsiveness. Perhaps the better handling may be attributable to stiffer sidewalls and slightly stickier rubber. I purchased the tires with a bias towards quiet and comfort, but feel pleased with the unexpected improvement in responsiveness for a tire that is promoted/named for comfort.

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.

These GY ComfortDrives replaced the OEM "M's"on my '17 Cadillac XT5, last year, and now have 7,000 miles. The originals were very good tires, but these GY's outperform them in ride comfort, secure handling, and traction. Also, the tires balanced out perfectly. Most favorable is the outstanding interstate highway touring. Highly recommend and will instal these on my other car when needed.

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

Purchased these for my 2014 Mazda3. Makes the car handle nicely and great steering feel. However I bought these for comfort. It doesn't deliver. Ride is still very stiff and firm and road noise which 8s my biggest complaint with tires is ever so present. Not very quiet.

These tires came on my 2017 Subaru Legacy new. I have 90,000 miles on the vehicle and I have to finally part ways with the tires. Yes, you read that correctly 90,000 miles. I am the worst customer a tire has ever seen, I don't rotate when I should, I hit curbs all the time, drive aggressively when I am in a hurry (I am in a hurry quite a bit.) and I have not had the car aligned to date. In the summer I drive in torrential thunder storms at least twice a week. All other cars including 4WD pickup trucks, Compact SUV's and full size SUV's are driving down the interstate at 25 miles per hour. I get to buzz along between 60 and 70 MPH in these conditions. I hydroplaned for the first time two weeks ago, time for a new set. They are a bit expensive; however, one would have be a fool not to buy Goodyer comfort drive tires.
