I have no complaints with them. Seem to be a good compromise between wear/stickiness/noise.by the way, what do people think of the OEM all-seasons that come with the car as summer tires? I believe the car comes with Michelin Primacy XMX4, if not mistaken.
I think it will depend largely on your driving style. I know that my foot is heavier now than it was when I could hear the ICE straining and guzzling fuel. A sedate start from a light often surprises me when I look back and see how far back the other traffic is. I think that the WRG3 is also a compromise, like all seasons, but with summer conditions rather than winter. I've always considered an all-season to be a three season tire, that *might* also be legal in the winter. With that in mind, I suspect the WRG3 would be fine for a typical minivan or SUV, but I have to question whether it would perform as you'd like on a Model S... unless you plan to drive it gently. My opinion, for what it's worth... (likely not too much!)f-stop said:back to @beeeerock's comments... actually I'm not a big fan of all-season tires myself, though I am intrigued a bit my these relatively recent all-weather tires like the WRG3 (a friend raves about his Hankook Optimo 4S tires, though I know those aren't applicable in these sizes). I'm used to separate sets of performance summers and winters on my old car and changing them myself. So I know the tradeoff of performance vs convenience. maybe I'm getting old and lazy and figuring maybe I can live with all-weathers - and also not having to buy a new heavier-duty jack required for this heavy car to continue my own wheel changes.
I'm seeing similar numbers to my OEM Primacy's, with some allowance for colder temperatures. In other words, I'm not seeing an obvious energy hit from the R2's which kinda surprises me... even though they're designed for low rolling resistance. I'm happy with them so far and look forward to confirming they're as good in the snow as my older Nokians were.I can confirm this after putting on R2's last week. Drove 120 km on the 401 highway the other night and averaged 175 Wh/km, about the lowest I've seen so far, easily on par with the OEM summer tires.
