235/50 19 Tyre Review Highlights

Royal Black Explorer II rated 80% while driving a Chevrolet Captiva
Driving on a combination of roads for 3000 average miles
This review is based on the Royal Black Explorer II in 235/50/19 103Y XL (front and rear).

The tyres were fitted within 2 weeks of each other (fronts first). Dry grip is absolutely fine but I don't throw my SUV around. When it's wet grip is fine but some extra care is taken just in case. Wet rating is 'C' but my SUV is somewhat lardy so best to be on the safe side. Can't really comment on handling or feedback given these tyres aren't "pushed". So far wear is good but the boots are somewhat noisy at speed - all okay at 60 mph but at 70 mph there's an obvious drone (tyre is rated at 72dB). But am I happy? Yes and would buy again.

Uniroyal RainSport 5 rated 76% while driving a SEAT Tarraco 2.0 TDI 4Drive
Driving on a combination of roads for 120000 average miles
Have driven over 120,000km on multiple sets of Rainsport 5s. All done on a 4drive 2.0tdi Seat Tarraco. Fantastic in the wet as would be expected. Dry performance I can't fault for everyday driving on all roads at all speeds.
Fuel consumption seems marginally higher than previous Continental EcoContact 6.
Only major downside has to be how quickly these wear out. Only averaging ~33,000km a set over 4 sets used in the last 18 months.
However, confidence in the abundant wet conditions will find me buying these again and again.

Continental AllSeasonContact 2 rated 88% while driving a Volvo XC40 T5 Plug In Hybrid
Driving on a combination of roads for 1900 average miles
Early days, but so far really great all round, Wet grip is good with almost zero wheelspin compared to the Pirelli it came with, recent snow and icy lanes no problem, motorway and dual cariageway smooth and quiet

Goodyear EfficientGrip 2 SUV rated 96% while driving a Audi Q3
Driving on mostly motorways for 12000 average miles
I’ve been using these tires on my SUV, and they have truly impressed me. Their handling is excellent on both dry and wet roads, which is essential for navigating the often damp Irish weather. They aren’t a sports tire, but as a touring tire, they are fantastic – smooth and quiet.

After 12,000 km, the tread has only worn down about 1 mm, so the wear looks good to me. In terms of comfort, they soak up bumps far better than the Premium Contact 6 I had previously. Aquaplaning resistance is also noticeably improved, giving me more confidence on rainy days. Overall, this is a quiet, comfortable tire, perfect for long drives. I’d absolutely buy them again!

Continental EcoContact 6 rated 59% while driving a Mercedes Benz EQB 300
Driving on mostly town for 11200 easy going miles
The EcoContact 6 are the original tires came with our 2023 Mercedes-Benz EQB 300.

Nice tires for all around daily usage, quiet and comfort.

Unfortunately, tires must be replaced after 18 months and 18000km of home-school-supermarket usage.

Not recommended for extremely poor mileage.

Continental EcoContact 6 rated 42% while driving a Nissan Qashqai
Driving on mostly town for 4600 easy going miles
Hi everyone, firstly I'm 68, I want mpg not mph. Im telling you the whole truth here, no lies, its not my style to lie. In March I bought a new Qashqai epower, it came with Continental eco6 on as standard tyres. First impression, only 6.4mm of tread brand new, are they serious? Surely they'll wear quicker than an 8mm treaded tyre,,,,yep, they have. Listen, I drive with the lightest foot going, I'm getting over 55mpg over the period I got it (1st March 2024) it's done 4628 miles now. I just checked my front tyre tread depth,,,4.7mm, I swear, I couldn't believe it. Back are 5.4mm.
So, mpg is brilliant, tyre wear is diabolical on the heavier epower qashqai. Dry handling is ok but wet handling isn't, it'll move sideways on wet corners, it's a bit scary.
Noise level is very good inside the car.
I'm going to change these soon, before Winter, I live in Aberdeen, it's cold in Winter, I can't trust these things. Looking at : Goodyear 4 seasons Gen3 , hopefully with 8mm of tread on.
I'd never recommend these Conti Eco6 to anyone, Continental are taking the proverbial with only 6.4mm of tread from new.
Steve.

Hankook Ventus S1 Noble2 rated 89% while driving a GMC Terrain
Driving on a combination of roads for 75000 average miles
I have the Hankook Ventus S1 Noble 2 tires on my 2018 GMC Terrain with 2L Turbo. I am coming up on 70,000 miles and I estimate they should last another 6 months. I have had very good luck with this brand.

Bridgestone Alenza 001 rated 86% while driving a Audi Q3
Driving on mostly motorways for 22000 average miles
Alenza 001 tires are well-made, offering good performance in grip and handling, but they are noisy, and seem to wear out quickly

Nokian Snowproof 2 SUV rated 96% while driving a Mercedes Benz MB GLK 220 CDI 4 matic
Driving on a combination of roads for 500 spirited miles
Nokian excellent on snow, also excellent on wet surfaces, but what was surprising was in the dry. The Kevlar reinforced sidewall significantly reduces body roll and steering angle. The tire is direct and precise, at high performance summer levels, making the handling fantastic. This driving pleasure has not been declared by the tests carried out so far, not even the aramid reinforced sidewall which reduces the risk of punctures and dents or bubbles, very important for an off-road vehicle. Unthinkable for an SUV winter tire until recently. I had the WR SUV3, which lasted 10 years, excellent on snow, but here the step forward is very big. Well done.

Continental EcoContact 6 rated 54% while driving a Volvo XC40 T5 Plug In Hybrid
Driving on mostly town for 11900 easy going miles
In city/town speed use I have no major problems. However last year passing through Austria on the motorway late at night in heavy rain the tyres had ‘moments of tyre grip loss in straight lines when the vehicle had done less than 6000 miles from new and therefore the tread depths were good.
At just under 12000 miles I have 3mm front and 4-4.5mm rear left so I don’t think tyre wear is very good but I do except that PHEV’s and Fully electric vehicles are heavier and wear quicker.
My local driving is mostly short journeys on electric and I pride myself on the smoothness of my driving which I think is chauffeur like. Once on the motorways or in bad weather they are not as good as I would expect for an expensive tyre. I’m now considering fitting an all season tyre such as the Michellin cross contact 2
