I'm a new (well, new to me, car is 2 years old) E Niro owner, and live on top of a hill in the north of England that rarely gets gritted.
I'd like to replace the tyres with all-seasons. There are lots of posts on here and other sites recommending various models. (Although interestingly I can't actually seem to find one from someone who's actually fit all season tyres on an E Niro).
What's confusing me, though, is when I come to buy them, they mainly seem only to be available in 98 load rating (the sticker inside my door says 94), or in V speed rating (the sticker says W).
How important is it if I deviate and go for 98W or 94V? Can this e.g. affect insurance if I'm not specifying exactly what the manufacturer 'recommends' on their sticker? Could it affect performance, longevity of the tyres, etc.?
Also, am I likely to experience any loss of performance if I go for something like the Goodyear Vector 4Seasons or Michelin Cross Climate 2, rather than an EV-specific tyre?
