Starfire Solarus HT All-Season 235/75R15XL 109T Tire

I have been an ASE certified technician for 35 years. I have installed a lot of tires over the years. I love these tires! The cost is great,no noise,no vibration whatsoever and the traction on snow and ice is excellent. I live in Central New York and we get snow and ice. This year is finally normal,last couple of years have been mild. I will definitely buy these again and recommend them.

I have a truck that has some issues and may need to be replaced within the next few years. I had these installed and am very pleased so far. They should wear well I assume. They ride sure and comfortable. . They are as attractive as tires can get If I get 40,000 I’ll be happy with the durability.Update 3/30/2024. I find that I may have lost a few MPG and I typically do as its now a tire that travels a greater distance because it has more diameter . They are quiet and wear well. Sure they have a bit of rubber loose here and there so I took a moment and trimmed it off. They balance well and are round drive straight. Are they a 250.00 tire? Nope Mavis tire installed these for a fair price perfect zero issues. Would I buy them again you ask? Yes9/6/2024 update still like the tires. No issues whatsoever. Wearing well.6/8/2025 Update I was looking at my tires today and notices a 6"long crack in the tread. rehaps a defect? then i saw metal wire sticking out of the side of the tire. I pulled these 3 wires out of the tire. Wait... What How does this happen? I will watch the tires and report back. I mean the appear ok outher than those 2 issues nice and smooth. Wearing well still. I have never seen this before on any tire. Like a wire brush wire. No kidding...

300 mile on them not to bad wish they were 10ply tires so I could have 55 psi instead of 40. But otherwise a great tire for my f150. I travel with a camper quite a bit. Also a quiet and comfortable ride

Deep straight grooves for water and very quiet.These tires are a great bargain

Installed four of these back in November of 2022 put about just over 30000 miles on these tires with some fairly aggressive driving. For the money these are a great purchase and as an Auto technician I can safely say that these tires balance perfectly with very little weight and no hard spots on the road force balance which is a telltale sign that these are quality tiresIt is now November of 2024, and the tread is now just above the wear bars, as long as your vehicle is properly aligned these tires should wear at a normal rate however I will say and I think other reviews have mentioned it that these tires don't come with a very deep tread to begin compared to what you would get with goodyear tires for example. They are missing at least an extra 4/32nds, overall, a solid purchase

I've owned this brand before many years ago. They were their own company back then. I had those 1st on a previous pickup I had. Those lasted nearly 6 years and I drove everywhere from work to home and as needed everywhere else each day.I went away from them when they sold out to this other Big company as I figured they would be more costley.This time around I seen these on sale and the best price for the size I have on my current GMC Canyon and went with them again.So far I'm verry happy with them again and hope I get another good round time again.So far no issues.Working well ...even in snowy conditions on road this year in Ohio.

I've had good experiences with Cooper tires and thought I'd try this division's product. I was surprised at the smoothness and quiet produced by the 235/70R16 tires on my 2010 Mercury Mariner (Ford Escort mate).The set significantly lowered the road noise over the Michelins, and are providing a smooth ride. These reduced the cost of replacement by more than $120 per tire under the Michelins.In the first 4 months there have been no occasions to test the tires for wet pavement handling, but the dry handling seems very good. The tires looks nice on the SUV and have held air pressure perfectly.I would recommend this line of tires to anyone.

After 100 miles these drive great on a 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Great traction, very stable despite the seemingly soft side walls. Quiet and smooth ride, but still has a deep tread pattern that I believe will work well in rain, snow, mud, and sand relative to other all-season type tires. It looks good on my vehicle and I like the tread pattern. The active tread pattern may be slightly less wide than some other tires - but marginally so.Update after 5000 miles:Could not be happier with these tires! I have a RWD Grand Cherokee and live in the NC Sandhills. With my previous M&S AS tires I kept getting stuck in the sand everywhere I went off road - and my tires were new. I bought these because I needed a good highway tire, but I really wanted something with a deeper cross tread groove to help off road in the powder sand where I live. This was the only tire I could find that seemed to do that. The tires are flat out awesome in the sand and will exceed your expectations. On the highway at 70 mph you hear more noise than a more traditional all season tire, but you have to turn off all noise makers to hear it and you cannot hear it with a window cracked - if traction is important, you will not care about the noise. I get 5-8% better fuel mileage with this tire than what I was getting with more conventional AS tires which is surprising. I do not know why I get better fuel mileage, but I am getting better gas mileage for a fact. Maybe the rubber on this tire is very hard. I do not use the vehicle in a way that dry traction on asphalt would matter to me.Update After 15000 miles:Tires still look almost new with very little tread wear. Most other tires I have used would show wear on the outside edges by now, but on these it is practically undetectable. I am still 100% happy with this tire in everyway. Rides excellent on highway, durability seems very good, and very good traction off-road. I have not used it in snow.
