I can fully appreciate that each tyre has its own advantages because of the variables between companies - compound, tread design, sidewall firmness etc BUT the way these are reviews are presented make it difficult (for people like me) to actually choose which one is best. If you finished the video review by saying "You will like and dislike [insert tyre brand here] because... would help this matter. Keep up the good work.
You'll be sorry if you buy the G019 Grid. In almost all applications, it feathers and turns choppy within a few thousand miles and then progressively get louder and louder.
Have you TR guys ever thought about testing longer term tire performance, such as treadwear and noise over time?
i have h4s all season on my mazdaspeed6 and i dont like them. they r a bit quiter than potenza summer tires. but in wet and snow they r absolute garbage. almost as bad as summer tires.
Pirelli P6 Four Seasons = Performance oriented tire? Far from it. These are truly horrible tires (probably better than Bridgestone Potenza RE92 though)-- this tire does nothing good. It's loud, it squeals when you try to push it slightly..... I can push my snow tires harder than the Pirellis, and it's pretty sad (I'm not talking about snow either). The reviews on tire rack echo similar thoughts also. It's probably fine for a person driving a Ford Taurus... but not a German automobile.

@autoxerwgn That sounds more like a suspension issue not a tire problem.

I am rocking a set of G019's on my car and my wife's car. Rain traction is fine if your not a race car driver, the tires are solid.

I just got exaltos, and i dont know if its my alignment or, tie bars or what, but the sidewalls feel like a sponge, and they are super responsive.
I prefer the super stiff sidewall.
