If you're looking into low rolling resistance tyres, the Michelin Energy Saver doesn't handle or brake all too well in the wet - but in the end it all boils down to what you're used to, I'm comparing them to rather sporty tyres.
BTW : That Toyota Scepter looks a lot like a Camry over here  |
Hmmm. I may have to consider what you have said about the Energy Saver (LRRs). Traction is very important here in NZ as we have a lot of bends and corners especially in the countryside.
I might just have to adjust my (city) hypermiling with these sticky tyres during winter.
>>>Yes the Toyota Scepter is very similar to a Camry. It's the JDM version of the camry with heaps of extras and electronics installed. It also has a slightly more powerful engine than the Euro and US models.
