Tires MICHELIN or Continental
I have a set on the Audi. I run them all year round. They are great IMHO. Michelin CrossClimate 2
I've used both tires. The Pirellis came oem on my Audi. I swapped them fir the Michelins. Ride comfort and handling made the Michelins the clear cut winner.
On a side note my wife’s Lincoln SUV runs Michelin defender’s and they are a great on-road tire!
Have had both. Ok my second set of Defenders now. If you want actual on road performance and tread life get the Defenders. In my experience the Michelins are much better in rain.
For your application, defenders all the way.
Defenders, best all-around tire hands down.
Defenders. From a 150 in the snowy Northeast.
I went with Continental PureContact LS. All of my looking and reading and personal experience and prices... this is what seemed best to me.
Have summer version of this. Good grip but hate the mushy sidewalls
Thoughts on CrossClimate2 for San Francisco/CA climate? Considering these for 2020 Kia Niro EV to replace current OEM Michelin Primacy MXV4, which we have found to be terribly un-grippy in rain.
