They make my car waste too much gas!!

This tires are not bad they ride well, not great (you feel every little thing on the road), but when it comes to fuel economy stay away from this tires they waste too much gas, my car bf this tires, had firestone on and my gas consumption was around 25.1 miles per gallon in the city & 28.5 highway, average driving speed limit never racing, because i wanted to see what gas mileage i could get out of them well it went down to 23.2 miles per gallon in the city & 26.5 on highway, so now i'm losing 1.9 miles per gallon in the city and 2 miles per gallon on highway because of this tires, so i don't recommend then if fuel economy is what you aiming for, also the riding is not smooth it feels stiff and hard so you kind of feel every little thing on the road. So this review of the tires is base on gas millage & ride comfort and noise because they do get a bit noisy, everything else i guess is fine for now will see how good are they when it comes to the 85K miles tread life.

Great tires

I wasn't in the market for new tires but ended up needed a new set unexpectedly. Was not pleased about that, but very pleased with these! I had no idea how inferior the factory tires on my car were. My installation appointment was in the middle of a winter storm. Definitely improved traction in the snow/ice/slush on the way home. They are also great on my 20-mile highway commute. Smooth and quiet ride and excellent handling. Would definitely purchase again, but hopefully won't have to think about that for a while if these live up to their expected life.

One of the best tires I've had

I really like these tires. Right after the installation, I traveled to Canada and they were really nice. No noise and great grip. Would definitely recommended these. The best part is the 85k miles warranty and free lifetime rotation. What else can I ask for.

Happy with tires but one had a slow leak

Happy with tires purchased, but one tire had a slow leak at bead because of barcode on bead. Store serviceman removed barcode and monitoring the tire & tire pressure to see if problem resolved. Otherwise tires ride great and traction great. Would purchase these tires again.

Average tires

These tires have great traction and I was happy with them on wet roads. The ride was good but not as good as my wife's Goodyear Comfortread Touring tires. Since they are new, I have yet to drive them in snow. On the downside, they are loud. I can definitely hear them and on the interstate the noise is very noticeable. It is the noise level that causes me to rate them lower than I would have.

Good in snow; ride quality not so much

Maybe I just live in an area with really bad roads, but with these tires I feel every single bump in the road and have vibrations right up through the steering wheel. Even driving on a relatively smooth highway the ride is very loud and rough; almost like I'm driving on solid rubber tires. The original "cheap" Toyo tires that came with the vehicle had a much better ride, right up to the day I swapped them for the Maxlife. I have a crossover with the less-common 19 inch wheels so maybe that negatively affects performance and I just chose the wrong tire for my vehicle. I'm debating changing them out but only have 5,000 miles on them and hate the idea of wasting money. On the positive side, they are nice-looking tires and handling seems fine. They have really good wet and winter traction and are surprisingly good in snow. That wasn't something I expected for a longer treadlife tire.

Choose another tire - these are SO LOUD.

I read all of the reviews and several people said this was a quiet tire. I decided to go with them even though the price was a little high. These tires have excellent handling however they are SO LOUD. My ride has been been ruined. I would not recommend them.

Noisy and not worth it

My criteria was to buy a set of tires that gives me a comfortable ride and lasts reasonably long. It is true to its name, Maxlife. However it comes a huge issue of noise, given the hard composite used to make it last long. It makes it impossible to take calls, listen to music or have any conversation inside the car without screaming. The noise has progressively gotten louder as the tires wore out, I have used this for over two years and 40k miles. I have been very regular with rotation and got it inspected regularly. I even got it balanced and aligned a few times, nothing helps with this annoying noise. Its just not a practical design, the hard composite makes it too loud. I will not be getting this set of tire again!

Sooo Happy

My experiences with the store have always been good. The service is excellent and my car runs like new. I wanted all 4 new tires and brakes and rotors. You know when your car is not running as smoothly as it should and it was obvious my car needed some attention ....The strore employees gave me their review of what was needed and I was in agreement. You pay a cheaper price elsewhere but you may pay for with bad customer service or a bad product. I bought my tires in the summer and have yet to deal with winter weather.

Exceeded my Expectations

I got these to replace my cars OE tires and was amazed by the difference that new tires made in my vehicle. The first winter in my car I believed that it was my vehicle to blame in the terrible handling, but it was the poor tires that came on the vehicle from the factory. This is the same with driving in heavy rains, my car would hydroplane everytime without fail, until I got the tires! The ride is unbelieveable and it is silent.
