Wife's 2013 CR-V OE Tires are not bad....

My wife's 2013 Honda CR-V EX-L came with 17" Bridgestone Dueler H/P Sport AS tires. They're a little noisy but the CR-V isn't exactly an ultra quiet luxury cross over. She has about 30,000 miles on her 2013 CR-V and the tires are holding up pretty well. She drives on them all season including a few winters. Her tires will probably need replacing in about a year. We typically don't run our tires bald.

I drive her CR-V now and then and there's nothing unusual about how the tires feel or handle. Straight line stability is fine with no wandering, lane changes are normal with no lurching or anything to complain about. The ride is a little on the stiff side with noise over freeway seams or bumps but again some of that can be attributed to the vehicle itself.

Whatever recommendations you get, they need to match your vehicle. A tire for a sport sedan, sport hatch, or full-size large SUV may not be the right choice for your cross over utility like the CR-V.

I linked to the OE tire below. The video on the TireRack website may also be helpful as they compare the Bridgestone Dueler H/P Sport AS to a couple other brands. Of course, there are many trade-offs like tire wear and such that they don't go into. And there seems to be no perfect tire for everyone. They all have praise and complaints. "Grippier" tires with softer rubber typically wear faster.... which would not be my choice for a family cross over but I've had sport summer tires on some other vehicles.

Good luck!
