Bridgestone Dueler H/L vs Michelin Harmony on 2002 CR-V

Hello, all!

I am looking at replacing the now-worn and lackluster stock Dueler H/Ts
on my 2002 CR-V with better tires. After doing a lot of reading, there
are only a few good alternatives, and for me it is between the two
aforementioned tires.

Does anyone know why the Harmonys are being used on CR-Vs? They really
seem geared toward passenger cars...understanding that the CR-V is a
passenger car that is just a little too high, what is the respective
difference between the two? Are they both equally safe in terms of
rollovers, etc.?

Thanks for any guidance anyone can offer.

Put Michelin X-ONE's on your CRV and you'll be happy.
Very quiet and a very nice ride!
Use the std size 205/70/15.

 

For my CRV 02, I will use either X-One 225/70/15 or Harmony 215/65/15, I
haven't decided yet :-|
Last month Michelin had $50 rebate on a set of four tires, maybe I will wait
for next offer. Sams club has a good price on these tires (around $110 ea)
plus $9 for installation, balance, rotation and road hazard. $1 dispossal
fee. That sounds like a good deal to me, just call NTB and see how much they
want for all the package.

 

Huh? If the standard size is 205/70/15, you're way off on diameter... 4.2%
- dunno about the possibility of rubbing.
