Went with the BFGoodrich Advantage Control, super cheap out the door w/ rebate at Costco, I think it was like like $450 for 4 tires? And BFGoodrich just uses older Michelin designs so their tires are amazing and better than the budget brands it competes with
BFGoodrich Advantage T/A Sport LT is a much better tire for only a little more money.
Running for 3 years now on BF Goodrich Advantage All Season SUV (not premium, but touring tyre) and they've been really solid on all temperature ranges.
Been to Slovenia and back in rainy May, they held good. Been in all weather situations in South east Montenegro, no problem.
Snowy and ice conditions last winter in Serbia, not even a slip or losing grip.
Even been 3 times to Greece during scorching summers, they were still fine.
I like BF Goodrich T/A KSI they are less expensive than Michelin XIce. They have good performance and seem fairly durable
Get a Honda civic and snow tires. They’re reliable, safe, good on gas. I’ve never had a fwd let me down in the winter unless I was driving like a dumbass.
Personally I went up one tire profile (from 225/50R17 to 235/55R17) and now my Speedo is GPS accurate ± 0.5kmh
Definitely a bit less grip in the dry than the 215 PS4s, but they're actually usable in the cold, solid in the wet, and at least passable in the snow. I'm not sure how much of the change in handling is down to the taller sidewall and narrower tire, and how much is the tire compound itself.
This is simply my perspective. I’ve had KM3, 3 different times. They are soft, they are more round than squared and performed well but I chunked them a lot using them to climb. One set I had new suspension and forgot to realign after it settled and did a little towing. I cupped all 4 wheels in 1500 miles.
Hopefully they're not as terrible as the KO2's on road
Hated the KO3s in the rain. Did a 1000 mile trip and as soon as I got home had Discount Tire swap them for AT4Ws.
