Gen6 Quite and Comfortable Tires

Any recomendation?? I am currently using Goodyear Responsedge 215/55/17 for my Camry V6 XLE. They are very quiet tires but I found out that the ride is a little too hush.

Thinking of changing they to Goodyear Comfortred. Or mabye increase the tire profile from 55 to 60 series. (215/60/17) Hmmm... wander if it will fit my car?

You might consider the Michelin Primacy MXV4. We recently drove the tire next to several other touring tires and it proved to be the most comfortable. Give me a call if you want to discuss the details. 800 428 8355 ext 663

KYLE,

I know that you are a very reputable and helpfull member of this forum but I just wander how reliable are the survey reports on your website. The survey shows that the MXV4 and the Pilot Primacy ratings for noise and comfort to be much lower than the Goodyear Responsedge. (am I looking at the right tire??)

The Primacy MXV4 is a new tire designed to be the follow up to the Engery MXV4 Plus. It is different than the two tires you mentioned. We haven't had enough surveys or data collected yet to include it in the customer review section.
Once we have a sufficient number of reviews and miles reported it will be added to the charts.

I would also suggest the MXV4. I agree with Kyle they are a nice quiet tire and have had good response from customers.

Kyle, Thanks for recomending the Primacy MXV4. They are much much more comfortable and even more quieter than the Responsedge or the Yokohama YK520 I had. (Exchanged from Goodyear to Yokohama to Michelins)


Thanks again... You are really the Guru of Tires.
