Thoughts on ACCELERA tires?

[kkowalsk]

I was in need of new tires and figured to give the Accelera’s a try as tire options as so limited. Having something that could serve light winter duty was also a plus.

For my 21’s total installed price $775. Initial thoughts in dry, mid 30’s was really good. Smooth ride, no vibrations or pull. Pushed them in the corners a bit and they seem surprisingly good with no slip. Interested to test them out in the wet and snow or ice if we get any here in Arkansas.


For comparison I got a little over 17k mi on the $1,930 Michelin Super Sports however I run them down to the very minimum.

Had a chance to test out my new Accelera’s in the wet and some light winter snow / slush.

They performed great and confidently in the winter stuff.

Interested to see how they perform as they wear however so far these are absolutely great.

I'm replacing my Accelera's at the wear bars. They do NOT clear water and aren't good in the wet if they are worn. But I'm putting another set on...they are just fine up until they hit the wear bars.

I'll run them through the spring and then put on my summer tires for the summer.
