About the same. My personal preference would be UC6 as it is said by users to have better mileage, as goodyear ATM 2 can only last about 30k km

My car is on Goodyear Triplemax2 at the moment. Planning to switch to UC6 soon. For the size of my tyres (205 60R16), there are very limited choices out there. UC6 is said to be almost on par with CC6 in terms of comfort and soft rubber but with better handling and wet performance in the rain.

Triplemax2 is decent on handling both dry and wet but it gets noisier with time. The rubber is also quite hard, contributing to higher levels of noise intruding into the cabin. Handling wise it is OK.

I've done 30k km on my Goodyear ATM2 in the past 7 months, it's still usable at current rate but the road noise is pretty loud. Is the Conti UC6 price similar to Goodyear ATM2?
Because from my local tyre shop, ATM2 price is almost on par with CC6, and never heard the owner recommend UC6 before, for my Honda city 185/55/r16

Now have newer tire UC7. You can give that a try

What is the price like, for a 185 55 r16? Wonder if the price is comparable to ATM2 of the same size

Yes, totally agree with the GY ATM2 road noise.
My car equipped with ATM2 2 months back with mileage of ~2k.

Last weekend was the first time I took it for the highway drive, oh gosh, the noise I had to endure throughout my journey was unbelievable.
It was so loud, even with pretty decent music volume.

Bang for your buck, ATM2 is better than CC6, D06, PT6.

But if got spare-cash for a better one, I'd surely go for a different set of tyres.

Fully agreed. I have used both GY GT3 and Excellence and their noise was horrible after some use.
Continental or Dunlop are so much quieter.
