Tires MICHELIN or ADVAN
Michelin. Pirelli too soft. Not durable prone to temp issues.
Michelin are a great choice, I would choose the CrossClimate2. I understand tires are expensive, but Michelin tires maintain their performance when they get worn, whereas other brands drop off significantly.
I put on a set of CrossClimate2's and have been very very happy.
IIRC, my Dad's 2011 v6 Mustang, came from Ford with Michelin Energy Savers.
I have GMC 3500HD SRW with almost 50k on OEM Michelin tires. There's still pretty good tread on them.
Michelin AS4s for year-round work fine for me, although I live in the midwest. But as long as you're smart and aren't trying to be the first one on the road before the plow trucks make their rounds, I've never had an issue.
I put pilot sport 4s on my 2014 GT and love them. I stayed away from the run flats and they provide great feedback.
I have had a few cars with continental extreme contacts and loved them. I have a 23 Mach 1 that came with Pilot 4S tires, they are simply amazing. They grip the road like glue and there is zero chatter when cornering hard. I would definitely go with the 4S.
Im on the Michelins from the factory and just noticed the rears are starting to show some wear in the center. I’m at about 14,000 miles.
I agree, i see more michelin tires with sidewalls cracking than other brands. Most of these tires have 50% tread left too and are usually pretty old 5+ years
