I've just ordered a set of Goodyear Efficient Grip 2s, 205 60 R16 92H EVR for my Ioniq '38.
Total cost £579.16, includes £15/tyre for fitting/valves etc, delivery to one of their agents in Petersfield to fit.
Bought from mytyres.co.uk, I've used them before & v happy with their choice & prices, also when they sold me a set of winters that didn't fit my Fabia (their error, new model had larger brakes) & they sorted it no probs.

They have 2 92H EVR offerings, 70p/tyre difference, one rated 69dB, the other 70 dB! So I've gone for the quieter one. Same B A rating for Range Wet-grip - really, are these tiny differences significant? Noticeable?

I'll try to estimate my efficiency when I drive 22 miles there on v worn Michelins, and when I return on new rubber!
