Tires MICHELIN or Continental
Recently got Michelin Pilot Sport all seasons. I gotta say, I have been super impressed with the extra confidence the tires have given me. They are a little quieter than the OEM yokos, but from what I understand the Yokos were horrible with noise
I had these installed on my 2016 GT last April:
Continental Extreme Contact DWS06
I don’t do much driving anymore (COVID work from home plus I drive my Miata when the weather is good) but over approx 10k miles I’ve been perfectly happy with them.
Went Michelin and won't go back unless Pirelli changes the game on Michelin
I’ve always been impressed by the pilot sport all seasons. I had the 3’s, then upgraded to the 4’s when they came out.
I have MPSS on my ND, and ran the same tires on my NC. I absolutely love them, my favorite tires and I would really recommend them. Not just for performance (which is, as you said, best of class) but also because they ride extremely well and don’t have too much road noise.
I bought a 20 year scooter with only 345 miles on it. It still had the original Pirellis and they were practically new. Of course I had to change 20 year old tires, but I put on Michelin City Grip IIs, and that was when I felt comfortable leaning.
I just put them on a new set of 18x8.5 forged wheels I bought for my 2022 VW Golf GTI Autobahn. We had a snow store two weeks ago and I was getting stuck because of the summer tires. So far since the snow storm we had rain storms, ice storms as well as a lot of snow that remained. All the snow that remained was where cars parked. The plows pushed the snow that way. A lot of cars were stuck and had to be dug out. But a bunch of snow remained. I was able to drive through in and out of parking spots with lots of snow like a tractor.
The stock conti's are garbage and wear out in 6-8k miles. I replaced them with Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 4's and they've been great.
I run the PA4's in stock 18\" size and they do fine down here in southwest ohio. If I was further north and typically got more snowfall I'd probably have gone with a more straight up snow tire opposed to a performance snow tire.
averick I did run the XGT V4's which were from the factory.. again I still stand by my word that those tires were ASS.
