Michelin's! Great grip especially in rainy weather, which is a priority for me. Plus, they're surprisingly quiet for a tire with such good handling.
Pros: great grip, surprisingly quiet

Late last year Toyo had a special running at my local Firestone store. My company told me how much I could spend. With the special I could afford tires I wouldn't have even looked at before. I tell you what. My little CX5 rode as good if not better than my Large Acura MDX. It's so smooth and quiet it threw me off the first long trip I took. I've had them for 5 months/25k miles and they feel as good now as they did when I bought them.
Pros: smooth and quiet
Vehicle:
Mazda
Mileage: 40233 km
For me, Falken/Sumitomo has been the perfect balance between value and performance
Pros: balance between value, performance
My favs: Hankook kinergy PT last forever. Michelin crossclimate 2 are great in weather. Uniroyal tiger paw are a decent bargain.
Pros: last forever
My Falken tires are extremely affordable and they grip better than my Pirellis in every real-world situation that I’ve needed the grip.
Pros: grip better
Cons: null
Just installed on EQE SUV. OEMs were Cooper Crossrange Discoverer…they were run flats. I thought the ride quality would improve…it really didn’t, they are rather stiff too, as are all EV tires now. That said, they are growing on me. The ride is more controlled, the sounds emanating from the tires are more hushed over bumps, but you’ll feel them. The highway noise is mostly hushed, though slightly louder over coarse surfaces. I think overall this is a good tire. Hankook did their homework on this one. They do handle very well, and…this is a good looking tire as tires go.
Pros: more controlled ride, hushed sounds
Cons: rather stiff
I run Michelin Pilot A/S3+ tires on my Toyota 86. I picked up a nail somewhere between Sacramento and Long Beach and the only reason why I knew about it was because I parked in such a way that the porter called it out when I got to the Queen Mary. The tire never deflated or showed signs of air loss. I still had it replaced, but the fact that the tire was safe enough to get me a replacement spoke volumes.
Pros: safe enough
Cons: picked up a nail
Vehicle:
Toyota
I’ve had good luck with “value” level Kumhos and Generals. Currently I drive a used BMW with over 300hp that came with budget Kumhos. They were brand new so I kept them. When they wore out I replaced them with expensive Continentals. I absolutely noticed the difference in quality
Pros: noticed the difference in quality
Vehicle:
BMW
My MX doesn’t have foam in the replacement tires I got but I haven’t noticed a difference! In my original 19in continental on a SR+ Model 3 and went to Michelin and noticed a huge sound and range difference esp in my kWh usage.
Pros: huge sound difference
Cons: range difference
I got both, one set on winter wheels and the other on my summer. Once my ko2s need to be replaced, I'm buying another set of wildpeaks! In my experience, the ko2s in rain are horrible
Pros: buying another set
Cons: horrible in rain
