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.

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

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.

I have a 2020 Subaru Outback, I just replaced the original tires at 30K miles because I couldn't stand the road noise even on new smooth black top roads. I love the new Goodyear Assurance Comfort Drive tires, they give us a smooth ride and no road noise. They are everything I was hoping for.

While it may sound like I am talking out of both sides of my mouth, what I love about these tires is also what I hate about them. They deaden everything. On a nice sunny day drive this is perfect. In heavy rain, not being able to feel the road is a major downside to me. I previously had the Comfortred touring and these are supposed to have replaced them as an "upgrade" I can tell you that the Comfortred touring was 100% the superior tire. These are very good tires and I have never lost traction even in the heaviest rain. Zero hydroplaning incidents. Just not being able to feel the road during a gully washer is a major negative to me. Not sad that I bought them, but also wouldn't recommend or buy them again either.

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.

I had 4 Goodyear Assurance ComfortDrive tires installed a month ago. They're definitely smooth and quiet, but my gas mileage took a 10% dive. I took a 400-mile freeway trip on my old tires and saw 37.7mpg in my 2018 CR-V. With these new tires, I could barely manage 34mpg. Same drive, same speed, same weather, same car, same 35psi. I'm stuck with these tires for the next 5 years or so and the money I'll be losing on gas is a huge disappointment.

The 19" wheels on my 2018 Honda Accord Touring made the ride harsh, and the OEM tires were very loud. I was almost ready to sell or trade it in. These tires made a HUGE difference. Not only is the road noise completely gone, I can now take small bumps easily and the ride is so much more comfortable. These tires work great just as advertised. Highly recommend. P.S. - I really can't comment no tread life or winter traction at this point since I haven't had them long enough.

I've had these tires on my car for about four days and they are exactly what they say -- Comfort Drive. They drive smoothly and softly. A pleasure to have on my car. A definite improvement over the previous Yokohama Avids. I have not explored the limits of the tires' performance, and I don't plan to, so I can't speak to wet traction. I'm sure they will be fine in the snow. I'm glad I bought these.

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.
