Tires MICHELIN or BFGoodrich
Mich Cross Climate 2 if they are ever going to touch snow but also perform exceptionally well in rain. Not cheap, considered a luxury tire, but very quiet. They have a snowflake on them, but I see people all over New Mexico use them year round probably because of monsoon season. If you ever wished for a tire you would not have to change when winter is over this is it.
Michelin cross climate 2 is the master all season tire. People who say otherwise clearly don’t drive in the snow. It competes or even beats some snow tires in stopping distance. Oh, they are fun as hell to drive on. Ignores big puddles and slush outright.
Having run continental DWS 06s for many non-summers. And this past season trying the competing Michelin. My perception is that the Michelins are quieter on rough surfaces, chip seal etc...
Michelin Pilot Sport 4 All Season. Second best all-season tire I’ve found. The best was the Vredestein Hypertrac, and it’s 20% cheaper than the rest.
Personally, I have always had really good results with Michelin, mostly good results with Yokohama (the S7 Advan tires were a little disappointing on my TL), mediocre results at best with Bridgestone, and generally bad results in Pirelli.
Michelin by far. I have Pilot Sport AS3+ on my car, and they’re fantastic.
Personally I’ve been buying Michelin pilot sports and I don’t see it changing any time soon at this point
It’s the best tire I’ve purchased over the years and until I drive something better I can’t justify any other brand
I’ve had loads of pirellis too, and they were my go to prior to the Michelins,
Performance in rain on the pilot sports is what really sets them apart for me. Might as well be dry roads 24/7 with those things
Michelin, for the win. They have stronger sidewalls
My take after several sets of KO2 and the competition. KO2s look good and are very durable for off-road work. Excellent puncture resistance and tough sidewalls. For on-road they start fairly quiet but tend to get noisy after wearing. They flat-out suck in the rain, marginal at best in snow/ice, and tend to push in corners (poor lateral traction).
all seasons won’t cut it. I had Michelin all-season pros whatever they’re called it didn’t do much so this year I bought some actual winter tires.
