Goodyear Excellence
The Bottom Line
The Goodyear Excellence is best for drivers who value comfort and quietness, with solid handling for a grand touring tire. However, its short treadlife and absence of a warranty make it less appealing for those seeking long-term value.
Important Note
The low treadwear rating and lack of a mileage warranty suggest frequent replacements, which can increase ownership costs.
