Tires MICHELIN or DUNLOP
I wouldn’t hesitate getting the Michelin LT ATX tires, I am of the opinion that it is a better tire than the defender line.
I run Michelin X-Ice's in the winter and they are dynamite. Way better traction than the scorpions in snow, slush, and ice.
Based on store inventory and ratings, I’m going with Michelin CrossClimate2 since they are available today.
I recently got the Defender LTX MS2 and was deciding between the Toyo AT3 and the Defenders. Since I drive 99% on highways, with an annual off-road camping trip and a few winter snow trips, I’m thrilled with my choice! The tires are very quiet and well-cushioned. The tread seems aggressive enough for my needs.
Michelin Primacy are good road going tyre imo, reputable brand, high quality and has lasted many many 1000s of miles.
I just installed Michelin pilot sport AS on my 11 328 and they are well worth the cost.
Absolutely. You don’t always need the best of the best for the type of tire you want (Michelin PS4 for example) but you absolutely want a good brand.
The CC2s are also awesome on wet/slush as the open v sipes resist hydro planing. Hit standing water with the BS Weather Peak, you better have a firm grip on the steering wheel. Michelin CC2S you hear the splash, but barely feel it in the steering wheel.
Switching this week from Kumho Ecsta PS91 on 20" Induction wheels to Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 4 on 18" RTX Spider wheels. Will search for a phone app to plot accelerometer output and do a tit-for-tat comparison on a couple of bad local roads.
Mine came with dunlops and all four had to be replaced after about 16k due to dry rot.
