Acura Tl Tires
Introduced way back in the mid 1990s, the Acura TL was a midsize sedan that was designed for comfort and performance; even early iterations of the Acura TL were far ahead of the curve with innovations like a CD-based navigation system, a cabin air filter and the adoption of GM’s OnStar system. By model year 2014 (its final year), the TL was in its fourth generation, with crisp styling, a choice of punchy V6 engines, enhanced brakes, a tighter suspension, and optional all-wheel-drive. The Acura TL had many commonalities with the Honda Accord and Honda Inspire, and was loaded with refined, advanced features like Acura’s Super Handling AWD (SH-AWD) package, improved aerodynamics, electric power steering, paddle shifters on the steering wheel, and much more. The Acura TL was replaced by the Acura TLX in the company’s lineup.
Here at FORTLUFT, we took some time to put together a lineup of some of the best tire choices for your Acura TL, including all-season, winter and ultra-high-performance (UHP) tires, and used our SimpleScore system to assign ratings for certain performance brackets. So without further ado, let’s get to it:
1. Continental PureContact LS – Best All-Season tire
Let’s kick off this list with the Continental PureContact LS. The PureContact LS is a tire that’s designed to live up to the expectations drivers have from Continental: long wear, sharp performance, great handling, and a quiet, supple ride. The Continental PureContact LS is designed to deliver accurate, immediate handling, civilized road manners, and year-round traction along with the kind of ride comfort you’d hope for with a Grand Touring tire. Superb road feel and steering response come from its solid center rib, and an asymmetric tread pattern with large, stable tread blocks contribute to the PureContact LS’s cornering and steering feedback, earning it a SimpleScore of 9.4 for handling. Continental designed the PureContact LS for excellent wear properties, too. Leading-edge materials such
