Waterfall Eco Dynamic Archives

Eco Dynamic is Waterfall’s all-season passanger tire. This tire can be used on SUVs, sedans and CUVs. Eco Dynamic is super cheap tire. Well, it isn’t perfect on every aspect. Yet, it’s promising a lot. Let’s dig into it and see what’s its pros and cons!

	Waterfall Eco Dynamic
Best for	People who don’t wanna sacrifice from traction and looking for affordable tire
Made In	Turkey, Izmit
Warranty	45,000 Miles
Severe Snow Rated (3PMSF)	No but handle light-snow with ease

As a former Bridgestone engineer, from my standpoint, Waterfall Eco Dynamic has a superior dry and wet grip. Moreover, it can handle light snow with ease. It’s alpha plus smooth and quiet. Yet, its severe winter performance is poor. Furthermore, it has average tread life with a 45,000 miles warranty.

Depending on your needs, the below article might help;

Dry Performance

Waterfall Eco Dynamic has a very similar design to Michelin Primacy A/S(review). So, you might expect a similar performance from it. Worth reminding that you should put the price difference into consideration. Waterfall Eco Dynamic is a dirt-cheap tire.

Due to its very-well siped rubber, it has unique dry traction capability. Compare to Michelin Primacy A/S, it has a lack of siping on the center section. Yet, its robust and highly divided shoulders cover the center section’s siping lack.

Regarding steering response, solid and flat center rib get into the game. It supports the symmetric pattern design and increases the tire contact patch. Hence, this tire has quick response-ability.

Cornering stability is another plus point. It has robust and steps shoulders that keep the tire stable while cornering at high speeds.

Wet Performance

Wet performance can be evaluated under two different dimensions. Hydroplaning resistance and wet grip.

Due to its 4 wider grooves, it can evacuate the water with ease. However, its shoulder blocks are closed. That might cause hydroplaning on very high velocities. Therefore, I don’t recommend this tire if you’re a spirited driver.

Regarding grip, it’s phenomenal. These divided stepped and very well-siped shoulders work perfectly on wet ground. Moreover, its compound is relatively soft. As a result, its wet grip ability is unquestionable.

Winter Performance

Winter performance is the weakest point of this tire. Well, that was expected cuz it’s an all-season tire. All-season tires can be used in cold weather, that’s correct. Yet, they aren’t experts on ice and deep snow. Their compound gets stiffer in tough winter conditions and that causes a lack of traction in icy conditions.

However, this tire can handle light snow. Its specific can resist freezing. Its compound stays soft and it can cover its grip ability. Worth reminding, if the ground starts to freeze, don’t use these tires.

Road Noise

Its flat center section gets into the game again. Road noise is generally caused by a void area on the center section. These void areas create an airflow and that air causes vocal ride.

Due to flat center rib and fluffy compound, Waterfall Eco Dynamic is a deaf tire. I strongly recommend it.

Comfort

Due to its soft compound, Eco Dynamic is a smooth tire. Furthermore, its reinforced but light construction helps it to step at once to the ground. Thus, vibrating or bouncing isn’t an issue for it.

Fuel Efficiency

This is the strongest point of this tire. The Waterfall is using unique carcass technology that decreases the tires’ weight by 5%. Light tires have a lower rolling resistance. Herewith, Waterfall Eco Dynamic is a highly fuel-efficient tire.

Tread Life

Tread life is where this tire stays short. In fact, they would do better. I guess they thought that they can satisfy the customers in the US with European standards. Wrong.

Due to its optimized contact patch and relatively fluffy rubber, its tread life is limited. Yet, it’s not bad. Let’s say average.

Getting maximum wear life from a tire is related to you as well as your tire,

Warranty

Winterfall offers 45,000 miles treadwear warranty for this product. That’s kinda proof of their lack of market needs.
