Thread: D3 Standard tyres

Are the AT2's any noisier on the road than the standard Goodyears? I would expect that they are

Windows up, nope, no difference at all, windows down, again neglible.

Would be interested to know as my Goodyears will need replacing fairly soon (35,000 Km's)

Well being new they are a lot quiter I will see after about 10,000 K's
I will let you know when we get back from our trip

I'd be interested to know how your fuel economy has changed since fitting the AT2's.

Slightly more noisy, don't notice with the windows up. Certainly not of any concern. Haven't checked the fuel economy yet as have done too much varied driving and towing on short trips recently.

I have found no difference at all with fuel economy, I would almost say it is actually better, around 13.5l/100km atm.........and thats for a V8 ,

The fuel economy has not changed for city driving
still around 10lts per 100k. Thats a lot of stop start
as I average around 200k a day city driving.
have not been out of the city yet can't wait to get
out on the open road away from the idiots.

That's really encouraging then, I think a set of AT2's might well be on the cards!

Did you notice your Goodyear HP's getting noisier as they wore (mine have). Mine have also started to tramline like a b*****d when the road is worn from the trucks. I spoke to another D3 owner he said his Goodyears made the car do the same thing - he changed the tyres and it went away.

Yes they were getting very noisy and yes it did tramline on rutted roads which their are plenty of in Brissy. That has stoped with the AT2's
