Tires MICHELIN or Continental
Id suggest Michelin, not a car tire but the ltx a/t2 tires for light trucks went 100k miles on one review i saw. I have defenders on my work truck and 16k on them and they look new still.
Zumindest auf Transportern sind Continental das beste was man fahren kann.
Würde für einen PKW dementsprechend vermutlich auch nichts anderes kaufen ????????♂️
All Michelin tires are quieter than most brands since they are softer. Even winters.
I do 25,000 a year and for 7 years I have only used all season tires, for the climate we have I think they are perfect!
I finally went and swapped them out for Michelin Defender 2s and it made a huge difference. The road noise is greatly reduced and has a lot less bass in it. The noise from the car moving through the air is now the louder thing, whereas I couldn’t even hear that before. Driving on the same roads as before my watch shows I’m at about 62db which seems like a pretty big improvement. I also feel that the ride has been improved over smaller bumps.
I had Kleber, Pirelli and now Continental - all of them I can recommend.
Got them on my 21 Onyx. They’re great in the rain and surprisingly good in the snow. Quiet even at 80+.
I am a evangelist for the Cross Climate 2s. Have had on my Outback for 1 year. Performance in Snow is awesome as expected, but did not expect such a massive improvement overall in handling, breaking distance, and traction in rainy conditions. And the first time I drove on a dirt road, it felt like a Rally car. 55mph on dirt feels as grounded as pavement. Also, have spots on my regular route that get pooling on the road during decent rain, and it simply will not hydroplane at 60mph.
They are not as nice as Michelin but I cannot say they are terrible either.
But having watched DWS regularly chunk badly under autox runs, i wouldn't expect much to be left of those tires at the end of the event. The compound is not designed to handle higher temps.
