Goodyear Assurance Comfortred Touring Tires for 2008 RDX ????

Just purchased a 2008 RDX and love almost everything about the car except the "not so smooth ride". Looking to buy Goodyear Assurance Comfortred Touring tires after doing research. The RDX currently has Kumho KL21 tires. Has anyone switched to the Goodyear tires? Did the ride improve? Need help please !!

I kept the Michelin MXM4 OEM tires for 40k miles. Switching them out to the Nitro Motivos. Great reviews 60k Warranty.

I have Goodyear Assurance Fuel Max Tires and while the RDX is still no magic carpet ride, the new tires definitely softened and improved the ride. Road noise also decreased a little. And depending on the kind of Assurance you get, (talk to someone from Goodyear) you'll get a hell of a nice warranty on the tires.

I am considering putting new rubber on my 10 RDX Tech. It has Michelin Pilot MXM. One tire appears to be a new model of the same tire. The CPO has 36k. I find it a bit loud and they do spin on hard acceleration. I really want a soft and quiet ride. Have you seen any improvement on MPG?

RDX doesn't offer a "soft" ride. No tire is going to solve this issue. IMHO the better choice for soft ride is the Lexus RX. It's a great vehicle, but you'll sacrifice handling for comfort.

I have 48k logged on my goodyear assurance comfortred and they still have 50-60% life on them. The oems died at 30k for me so maybe i just drive like an ass but these current ones hold up to it.
