Goodyear Comfort Treds

[cmhj2000]

Have a 2005 base W/Auto. Great little car. Gets a consistent 35-38 highway at a steady 65 MPH with 13K miles.Am considering dumping the junk Continentals for a set of Goodyear comfort treds. Has anyone tried them on this car?Am also thinking the ride might improve slightly more if I go to 205/60-16 versus the stock 205/55-16.With the extra .8" outside diameter I see no clearance problems. Also the minor drive ratio change should not be an issue as I pull no trailer, run mostly in flat areas and seldom have anymore than the wife or some luggage with me.Has anyone done either of the 2 mentioned changes?Thanks for any feedback.

Hi, went to the Comfort Treds on my 06 Matrix 2wd Auto.Got rid of the Crappy Conti at 3,000 miles and went with 215/55/16 on new 16x7 wheels.Big improvement in ride quality and noise reduction.Traction in Minn. Weather was also improved greatly.After 10,000 miles on they show no wear pattern at all.Many like the Goodyear Triple Treds for exta traction.Hope this helps.

I'm planning on getting Comfortreads for my Wife's cavy in the spring or sonner if nead be..And when my Vibe's RS-A's go I'll get the Triple Treads for it.

Just got back from a 10 mile drive on new 205/60-16 comfort treds. Don't know how much the oversize effects the ride if any but Gotta' admit this Vibe is a totally different car.

I swapped my RS-A's at 42 miles for 225/50/16 TripleTreds. Discount Tire allowed me $250 for the RS-A's. TripleTreds are so much quieter and now with 10K miles, they look like they were installed yesterday. I'm very satisfied.
