Every now and then, I decide to write an article on a topic that hits close to home, and the one I’ve chosen for today falls in that category. You probably know that I drive a car that’s a similar age to me, so this article is for you just as it is for me.To get more news about car tires, you can visit gofortunetire.com official website.

Copy of Best Tires For Older Cars
If you purchased a car in the past decade or two, then there is a great chance that fitment isn’t an issue. Depending on the application, most manufacturers go for a decently wide range of size options. A Pilot Sport 4S on an Aygo is pointless, so Michelin covers the bigger sizes, as those are the type of cars you’d probably take on a track.

What about if you’re like me and drive an older car but still want to avoid the disastrously bad Chinese tires? I have some good and bad news. Starting off with the good, there are pretty good options available on the market, so you can even get a premium tire. The bad news is that, as you can probably guess, the number of available models isn’t as extensive, and you probably won’t be able to get the interesting stuff.

Before I begin, let me explain how I chose the tires. The first criteria was for the models to come in at least 14-inch size; the maximum is not as relevant because the goal is to help people with smaller wheels. As for the second, well, naturally, that one is reserved for the performance, meaning that I avoided the poor performers. This means that these aren’t the best tires in their categories, but they are the best choice for the smaller sizes.
As an all-season touring tire, the Advantage T/A does what it’s advertised for in most cases. The dry performance is excellent, and even if you own a smaller car, you can be sure that you’ll have more grip and traction than you’ll need. Going into a corner, the tire feels like a touring one, and while it holds pretty good, you can expect a bit of flex. Despite that, the handling isn’t terrible and can give you a whiff of sporty feeling through the steering wheel.

Moving down the range, we have a model from Hankook – the Kinergy ST. Despite not being a grand touring tire like the previous one, it’s an excellent option for smaller sizes. It covers the 14-inch range a bit more extensively, and you can even find one 13-inch model.

#3. Cooper Evolution Tour
As a daily commuter, the Evolution Tour is an excellent tire for an older car. Most of those aren’t overly powerful, so the tire won’t struggle with traction when accelerating. In the corners, you can also get very good grip levels which will be more than enough for most people. Cooper advertises this as a touring tire, so don’t expect a strong emphasis on handling. The responsiveness is acceptable, and you won’t get a lot of feedback through the steering wheel.

#4. Nexen N Priz AH5
The last of the all-season touring tires I’ll discuss is the N Priz AH5. Nexen did an excellent job at covering the lower end of the spectrum in terms of tire sizes and offers the tire in plenty of models that range from 14 to 17 inches.

#5. Dunlop Winter Maxx 2
With the all-season touring tires out of the way, let’s take a look at some winter options starting with the Dunlop Winter Maxx 2. This model comes in a 14 to 19-inch range and a single 13-inch model, so you could fit it to any car, even the newest ones.

#6. Michelin X-Ice Xi3
You probably thought that you won’t see some of the popular options on the market today, but I have one from the premium winter segment. Michelin’s X-Ice Xi3 is the latest addition to the winter segment and comes in a plethora of options from 14 to 19 inches.

#7. Cooper Evolution Winter
As part of the Evolution lineup, Cooper released several models. I already mentioned one of those, the Tour, and the second one for this list is the Winter. This is probably the widest size range on this list with models ranging from 14 to 20 inches and is a studdable tire.
