Q.Ertiga Tyre recommendation

Hello Friends. Car tyre purchase is indeed highly confusing. I own Ertiga SHVS Vdi 2016 model. After a run of 43,300km, the company fitted Good Year tyre finally bursted today afternoon. Thankfully the car speed was just 20km/hr and no damage was incurred. I immediately did a Google search for reviews and had a final choice of Michelin, MRF and Bridgestone. After a deeper search, I opted for Michelin. A quick call to the authorized Michelin tyre store, responded promptly by the owner, reached the store within an hour, got all tyres checked and they had worned out completely. I was educated by the shop owner on how to detect the life span of a tyre. The Michelin guy gave a zero interest emi option on the credit card payment and it was easy on my pocket. Another offer on purchase of four tyres was all that I needed to change all the tyres. Trust me, highly efficient service, quick wheel balancing and alignment took just 30 minutes and I was driving off on the brand new Michelin tyres. So, what was the first difference after fitting Michelin tyres? As soon as I sat on the driver's seat, the car seemed elevated than before. The car seemed to be running smoothly with as good as none tyre friction noise. The new tyres seemed to absorb the turbulences of all the rough potholes and provided additional support to the car's shock absorbers. The 10km ride seemed to be super good with easy manoeuvring and better car control. All in all, guess a wise decision to go for Michelin. The journey has just begun and way to go for a further pleasurable driving experience. Cheers Michelin. Regards, Manoj Patkar.

Are you planning to upsize the tyres on your Ertiga to wider ones? Or do you want to stick to the stock size of 185/65 R15. In the stock size, I would suggest going with Michellin Energy XM2 or even BridgeStone Potenza GIII, as you need a good mix of handling, good looks and good ride comfort with seven passengers. If you want better grip, look at upsizing to 205/60 R15 with the same brands. You will find handling to be better, but fuel efficiency make come down by about 0.5 kmpl.
