Tires MICHELIN or BRIDGESTONE
Treated it with the new Michelin cross climate 3 sport wich improved handling a lot. Was a little worried about comfort but it’s not as bad as I thought.
Personal, pe un Q5 cu stage 1 la 230 de cai (si o conduita preventiva) nu am avut absolut nicio problema cu Michelin CrossClimate2 atat iarna cat si vara.
Michelin has god level comfort and wet braking. My honda jazz came with Michelin XM2. The problem is due to softer compound. It lasts lesser kms. I have to change mine around 35k kms.
Due to some import restrictions, I was unable to find 195 60 Michelin so asked trye shops. Almost everyone recommended Yoko for city rough road use. I use Yokohoma now and though its not as good as Michelin its defined better than MRF Bridgestone used in my relatives car.
My current set is Bridgestone Potenza Sport — they’ve been on my car for 3 years now, and honestly, they’ve been really good with no noticeable noise issues.
Using the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 and the ride has been phenomenal until now. Amazing grip and silent too on high speeds. Just that they're quite expensive compared to other brands. Currently done 30k kms on them. Had a sidewall rupture once which fortunately got covered under warranty.
Some good quality tyres - Bridgestone Turanza 6i ( currently using, very silent and offers good grip)
I'm using BS on dzire for past 7 years, 40k km with zero problems. I inspect them before every long drive.
Yes, avoid budget brands. I had Laufenn winter tires as my first set on my 2018 Odyssey. Before those ran out, I switched to Michelin winter tires and the difference was night and day.
Came with Hankooks Ventus S1 Evo 3. My previous car I was running Michelin Cup 2's and while definitely more grip they didn't last very long.
Gonna cost me $1200 for 4 Michelin Defender 2's (245/55/19) on my 2008 Highlander (March 2025) with installation.
