Hi all, My Fit has 30K and the stock Dunlops (P175 65 R14) are just about toast. I was really good about rotating about every 6k and am not an aggressive driver. Looking for some recommendations on tires. I would like a long-lasting tire. Live in NC so snow is not a huge issue but I do travel in the north so I want something I can depend on. Was in WV with snow and was very disappointed with how the Dunlops gripped (or didn't).

Anyone know anything about SumitomoTouring LST, Cooper Lifeliner, Pirelli Cinturato P5, Pirelli P4 four Seasons. I've read a lot of reviews but could use some advice for a Fit.
Anyone out there who can help a girl out? Thanks.

 

Hello! I have those Sumitomos on my GD fit and theyre pretty nice. Ive put about 10k on them and they grip pretty well in the snow.

I still have to drive slower and keep the revs low in the snow but i havent had any unwanted slides or anything.

Everyone here hates on the dunlops so much, theyre just too basic for weather conditions.

 

hey i love power sliding on DLs , next set will be falcon 912's have them on my MPV grip nice and cost is good.

 

I live on quite the hill and opted for four steel 14" rims with studded snow tires for my sled riding times. My stock Dunlops made the car handle like a hockey puck on the snow. At 35K the Dunlops went and new Pirelli P4s came. Since I've felt the car handled too much like a go Kart, we opted for a taller and thinner tire. The 185/60/15 fits just fine. It brings the car up about 1/2 further from the road/curbs/hazards and removes some of the twitchiness from the ride. Some others I've talked with opted for Goodyears in the standard 195/55/15 and claim they are much better in the snow. I think just about any other tire will do better that the stocks in the snow.
