I was always a Michelin buyer because they were consistently quiet and long lasting offering excellent all around performance. 20,000 mikes ago I replaced the OEM tires on my Mk7 Jetta R-Line with the Turanza Quiettrack and am pleased without any regrets.
Costco put on a set this (2021) spring but it is too soon to know much. They ride quiet and straight (we also did an alignment). Note: to keep the Costco warranty, you must go back within a week or so to have them re-torque the nuts.
I have a 2017 and have used Ecopia tires from day one. Original tires lasted me two years and over 60,000 miles. The current set has 40,000 and still going very strong. I average 50 mpg so they seem to be working well in all facets of their job.
I have found it quite hard to predict, but Bridgestone were extremely noisy for me. Then I had Michelin which were slightly quieter but still didn't satisfy me completely.
The problem is that the more aggressive the snow [tires] the noisier they were. After 4 seasons on Blizzaks I was ready to burn them.
Then installed brand new Blizzak winter tires, aired up to 36lbs. Next 3 tanks road tripping to Bend Oregon. Largest size Thule cargo box on roof. First road trip tank on the way down all rolling rural highway, so a lot of total elevation change. 24mpg.
So swapped out to an AWD Atlas, added new 17inch wheels with Blizzaks. It's a remarkable set up for winter driving, incredibly confidence inspiring
Michelin is expensive, almost double more expensive than Bridgestone. I have not seen anything different between them so far. I like the Bridgestone so far.
I just had my original ecopia 422 205/55/16's swapped out with a set of Nokian Solstice all weather tires in the same size. All seasons don't do well in the wet and slushy snow we get here in south coast of B.C.
My OEM ecopias made it to 46k Not any abnormal noise, wear, etc. Not great tires, except for mpg. Would never buy them myself. Horrible in any type of snow
