    I've written about this extensively here:
    Finding the Best Tire for You
    Thanks.

    But was looking at Good Year's site for passenger tyres...

    "Budget tires" is more of a generalizarion that they are more affordable.

    Older small cars had alot of road noise because lesser insulation in the wheel wells.

    Low rolling resistance tires with low tyre pressures will be noisy.
    hahaha.. oo nga, "econo" pala na type ko... it should be "eco"

    Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5. Almost same level of performance as Michelin PS4 - i.e phenomenal grip, best-in-class rain performance, good wear, and low road noise.

    If you go for the cheaper variants like a Triplemax Assurance or Duraplus, but you'll have far less dry grip for sure, but typically better wear (maybe about 5-10k km longer).

    Be cautious, and increase your tyres` lifetime with the programme of Tyre Awareness! Never miss a tire pressure check and get a convenient way to save on tire replacements with a Priority Tire coupons code. By observing all traffic rule and regulations possible you also get more of the reward in the form of tire giants' discounts.
