Best test result: #1 of 4 in 2024 Auto Express Crossover All-Season Tire Test R18 (rolling resistance)
“Second set of Turanza 6 on the G70…awesome tyre. Very quiet (have in mind that mine have the B-sil technology), excellent grip in dry and wet (my car is M760e and I do love to push it hard from time to time when on highway or mountain passes) and pretty solid structure for bad roads. Haven’t used the Hankook and can’t say anything about them.”

“Tyre Suggestion for Seltos Guys, I am planning to change my terrible Goodyear tires, which have been a puncture magnet since I started using them. I have driven 42,000 km, and currently, three of my tires have punctures. I am not going to get this fixed. I am not a car enthusiast and have limited knowledge about tires. I did some research and shortlisted these tires: \- Continental UC6 \- Yoko BlueEarth 1 \- Michelin Primacy 4/5 \- MRF As I will be driving in the worst city in India (Bangalore) due to its terrible roads and highest road tax, I feel Michelin might be prone to punctures, as I read some reviews about it. Please suggest some tyres Wheel profile is 16 inches. Not planning to upgrade that. I don’t have budget constraints as such. View Poll”

Tire A
Bridgestone Turanza 6
Mixed
The community has mixed opinions on the Bridgestone Turanza 6, with many users praising its wet and dry grip, low rolling resistance, value pricing compared to Michelin, and improved ride comfort over predecessors. However, some drivers report a soft or twitchy sidewall feel during hard cornering or high-speed driving, and a few note unexpected noise or durability issues.

Tire B
Michelin Primacy 4
Positive
Community feedback for the Michelin Primacy 4 highlights its exceptional wet and dry grip, low road noise, and smooth ride quality, making it a top-tier touring tire for daily drivers. While most users praise its longevity and well-balanced comfort, a few note mixed experiences regarding tread wear rates and performance on rough or older pavement.
Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements), each result compared with every other tire in the same test and newer tests counting more. 40% comes from owner reviews found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates. Both use one scale: the average tested tire gets 70, the best 100. When a tire has only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from the other and the score stays closer to average; with no road test and fewer than five owner reviews it gets no score yet.
Community buzz from Reddit and forums is shown for context only — it never changes the score.
