Goodyear Excellence RunOnFlat

The Goodyear Excellence RunOnFlat is a solid choice for urban drivers who value a quiet and comfortable ride, with the added peace of mind that comes from run-flat technology. Its wet grip rating of 7.5 slightly exceeds the category average, providing reliable performance in rainy conditions. However, the tire's treadwear rating of 240 is significantly below the grand touring all-season category average of 574, suggesting a shorter lifespan. This is compounded by the absence of a treadwear warranty, which could lead to higher long-term costs. In terms of competition, the General AltiMAX RT45 and BFGoodrich Advantage Control both offer treadwear warranties, potentially making them more cost-effective options for high-mileage drivers. The Vredestein Quatrac Pro+ may appeal to those seeking a higher speed rating for better performance. The Excellence RunOnFlat's 'R' speed rating is lower than typical for this category, which could be a limiting factor for some. Overall, this tire is best suited for drivers who prioritize comfort and noise reduction in city environments and are willing to trade off treadlife for run-flat capabilities. Those who drive long distances or at higher speeds might find better value in competitors with higher treadwear ratings and warranties.
