So I popped a tire on Friday on my ‘15 Volt, and ended up replacing all 4 tires (36k miles 5/32) and was opting for these Road Hugger GT Eco as the salesman recommended me personally as a Electric car owner.

Unfortunately they didn’t have enough in stock and threw on some Goodyear Assurance Touring tires ($25 more per tire) I guess considered an upgrade?

I have yet to try out the full range to see how much I’ve lost, but figured I’d ask..what are other owners throwing on to maintain range. If I notice a big difference I may just opt to come back and get the original set I purchased.

Continental TrueContact are a well-reviewed LRR Eco rated tire. Several threads about them in the wheel and tire subforum.

I've been running mine for a couple months now and they've been great. Still need to put a few thousand more miles on them before they're broken in for full range but I can get 40 miles as it is on my '13.

I agree with Continental True contact. Better ride, better in snow, LLR rated no loss of range
