Tires MICHELIN or Continental
About 30-40k miles. I just changed to Michelin LTX M/s for a second round the first set got me 85K miles. I’m hoping these ones last the same amount of miles.
I second the Cross Climates. I have them on my NX and they\u2019re the best tires I\u2019ve ever had.
I swap wheels/tires twice a year running summers on the stock wheels and winter Michelin snow/ice on 17 basic black wheels. Car handles snow in New England like a dream.
Alpin 5s are awesome. Never an issue in as much as 4-6" of snow.
If you have issues with your current tires, consider getting a all weather tire like CrossClimate 2s.
the Ariya the best upgrade over the mediocre factory tires is the Michelin CrossClimate 2 (EV-friendly sizes) they handle the weight and torque way better, ride quieter, and you’ll notice way less range drop compared to cheaper options.
If you just want the best real-world pick for a Golf in 205/55R16, skip the test charts and go straight for the Continental AllSeasonContact 2 it consistently lands top-3 across every test because it nails wet grip, winter traction, and tread life without the noise/harshness of CrossClimate.
I ran Alpin 4s and 5s on my F80. Upstate NY, drove through some pretty sketchy road conditions completely fine
I like the performance of mine so far, but be careful and get them from a real shop. I had mine put on by Costco and they completely messed up the balancing twice in a row. Finally got it "fixed" but it still rides noticeably rougher than the OEM Bridgestone's my CX-30 came with originally.
The Michelin Primacy MXM4 with the T0/T1 designator are easily some of the worst (premium) tires I've ever used. I was so glad to get worse range to not have howling in my cabin after 5-10k miles on them.
I thought it was something weird I did to make these so bad, but had the same issue on two separate Model 3s, and moving to the Pirelli EV tires fixed it.
