Great tire. Ride, handling and performance are superb

Purchased these tires to replace the OE tires on by 2019 Avalon Touring. OE tires only had 31,000 miles on them. Purchased the 85,000 mile Goodyear tire. So far the car handles better, ride is smoother and ride is quieter. Have not driven them on snow yet. After 1,000 miles I am very pleased with the tires.

90000 plus miles

I need new tires. I happened to keep my original receipt when I replaced my tires on my SUV in 2019 with Good Years assurance max life tires. On the receipt it listed the mileage as 47, 000. It's been 5 years and my mileage is around 137000 miles. That's 90000 miles on a set of tires! That's nuts. I am not good at rotating tires, maybe 3 or 4 times in 5 years. I've been buying tires for decades. This is the first time the mileage meets our exceeds the warranty. Last note, the tread still has a bit to go before it meets the wear bars. Wouldn't have believed it if I didn't have that receipt from 2019.

Great Tires

I replaced the original tires that were on my Subaru Ascent when I bought it new in December 2019. I had about 26,000 miles on them and the vehicle was out of alignment. The tires were worn out and dangerous. My husband researched the tires and we called Just Tires in Apex. We got in and them installed in about 2 days. The service was very good and I love the tires. There is less road noise, its a better ride, handles better! Handles a lot better on wet roads than the other tire. They aren't cheap, but they are worth every penny! Safety first! Couldn't be happier!

Max life, min fuel

After trying to convince my wife to get a working all-season from another company, then those tires coming from the warehouse with dry rot TWICE, we settled on the MaxLife. Our '21 Toyota Highlander hybrid (AWD, XLE) had Toyo OEMs that lasted 25,000 miles (300 UTQG) . That meant we weren't going to bother getting another set, and the knee-jerk reaction was to find the absolute longest tread life tire possible. Hello, MaxLife! Anyway, it took between 1,000 and 1,200 miles for these to really break in, but they are 90% as quiet and comfortable as the Toyos - which was the whole point of that OEM tire. There is a low, quiet rumble from them, and a really nasty pothole will get through, but they're a very solid all-season tire as far as comfort and noise, just a hair below the best touring all-season options. My fuel economy was 35-38 MPG from the OEMs and these get me the same MPGs now that I've gotten through the break-in period. (Note that my spouse gets 5-10 MPG less. Driving habits matter!) We can drive confidently in the rain, braking is very good considering we've not had any really close calls to test emergency braking. Just those stomp-on-the-brake-because-people-don't-understand-roundabouts and that-squirrel-made-a-panicked-run-for-it situations. We live in NC so we won't have a lot of snow to deal with. Have yet to try these on the trails we take in the mountains. Overall, while I wanted the fancy touring all-season tires, these make a lot of sense for the family hauler and road trip vehicle.

Got me through three blizzards in first week

The team at Piper Glen in Charlotte recommended these tires right before I had to drive cross country. Thank goodness I did!!! We got stuck in three blizzards in one week, with one rerouting us for hours on rocky dirt roads, solid ice, and extremely hazardous conditions. I can't count how many times I thought about how glad I was that I had these tires on. They rode a tiny bit rougher than my old tires to begin with, but that was due to this being a heartier tire and I got used to it within a few days.

Rough interstate ride

My experience was not a good one...I road away from the tire store and had to immediately return my SUV because I had gotten a flat! I never use the interstate highways, but I chose to use it last week for a quick run, my SUV road horrible, I felt as if I had a flat again!!!

High tire wear with a Tesla 3

I put the tires on in less than 9 months ago and drove 17K miles and they have to be replaced. Always felt they had poor grip as soon as I put them on the car. Sliding in light rain and light snow. Recommend picking a different tire for a tesla as not sure if the weight of the car affected the life of the tire. The tire was highly recommended for tesla 3 for overall performance but I think I need a harder compound tire and one with better all-season ratings.

Great tire

In my history of using the Assurance all seasons, this is the best tire I have used. Compared to the base model of the tire... It is great especially in taking a hit to an unavoidable pothole. There have been may times I have went turtle mode in my car after hitting a pothole. These are a stronger tread, and I am glad I don't have to lose any time replacing one. They last a lot longer too! I may have to nearly full price on the next set! They hit their prorate mileage. That's even with me driving on numerous types of roads.

Quiet and smooth

I read several reviews prior to purchase and many mentioned the noise. I dont know what was different with their tires but these are extremely quiet and smooth. The ride and handling has been pleasantly surprising. I've driven just under 2k miles in both highway and city conditions and these tires have been great. I hope I get close to the 80k-85k miles estimated treadwear as that would be icing on the cake.

Quiet durable tires!

These tires are surprisingly quiet and handles well in rain. I haven't been through a winter yet but I'm sure they will perform great with their tread. I drive freeway, city and gravel county roads and haven't had an issue. I'm Very happy with this purchase
