OK tire
Bought these at Les Schwab. Only have 9k on them so can't' comment on treadwear. Tread is fairly quiet on a smooth surface, but there's a low ringing sound with these tires, kind of like the sound you'd get by flicking your finger on a beachball or large balloon. It's noticeable if you listen for it, but overall not unpleasant. Traction seems OK for central California both summer and winter.

Purchase these tires on June 6, 2022. The tires were delivered a few days later have them installed for about three weeks now. I purchased these tires for my daughter's 2017 Nissan Sentra sports edition. However, on July 9, 2022, it was raining that day, but nothing heavy light rain. My daughter was doing about 30 to 40 miles; when she stepped on the brakes, the car did a 360 spin, and she ended up hitting the curb, scratching the side of the vehicle before the car came to a complete stop. She called me frantically, letting me know that the brakes gave out and the vehicle did not stop; however, I had the car picked up brakes were checked out. They were OK come to find out, it was the tires. After reading the previous reviews after the fact, I realize that these tires does not have good wet traction. They are not all-season tires as stated. Luckily this was caught before the winter season. On July 11, 2022, I ordered four new tires from Tire rack that totaled over $500. on Monday, July 12, I called the tire rack because they were closed on Sunday. I was told after a few phone calls that I needed to contact the manufacturer and file a claim directly. They have to cancel my current tire orders until my claim is resolved. I cannot return the tires because it has been more than 30 days. My 30 days start from the date the order was placed not after receiving the tires. I have been buying tires from tire Rack since 2006. I will no longer purchase any more tires from this company. Purchase with caution and know that driving in the rain is highly hazardous.

These tires are made for Arizona because they do not like the rain. They are fine for dry weather and are a nice riding tire. They are also a comfortable riding tire. I have over 18,000 miles on them and they are at 5/32 and 6/32. These tires will not make it past 35,000 miles. I probably will get rid of them in 2022 because they perform so poorly in wet conditions. It is almost impossible to accelerate from a stop with almost any amount of throttle. I would never buy these tires again.

Be careful when purchasing these tires, I received a set of these tires in June and they were manufactured in 2014. It's hard to believe they would sell a set a tires six years old.

I only had the tires for a few month's so not sure how they will be by the time they need replaced but for now they are very quiet on most road surfaces and I have seen my gas mileage increase. I would buy again and would recommend them to anyone looking for a high quality affordable tire.

The tires look and perform very well. However, when my installer was putting on the tires, about the time he was finishing up, he noted that the tires had a DOT date of 2014 on them. He raised his eyebrows as if to say "Now I understand why they were so cheap". I got scared, so I looked up whether older tires were safe to ride on. Many of the websites said that they were not good, but they were also motivated to sell new ones to the customers. I called Simple Tire several times, seeking whether somebody would definitively tell me whether or not to keep the tires. I put the tires on my son's car, and I wanted to know if I was putting him in danger by doing so. The customer service person would not (really could not) tell me anything.
The company did offer me a half-price discount, and I accepted this gratefully. However, I was still scared that I had in some way sold my son's safety for a good price on tires.
The way I resolved the problem was to ask my installer, point blank, if he thought I could keep the tires and not endanger my son. He said that they were fine, since there is no sign of decay or weakness at all.
So far, so good. My son is still driving on them, and the tires are doing great. No guarantees about these kinds of issues. Trusting the One who is in charge.

Worse tires I've ever experienced. Mfr claims a 60,000 mile warranty but tires wore out at 30,000 miles in three years! Tires are used on a Hyundai Sonata driven local, short distances on rural roads - disgraceful. This is an entry level tire with substandard performance at a premium price.
