Tires MICHELIN or Falken
Tried some mich sport pilots, range killer. In the winter 20% loss but the cae handled so much better....
Just bought 4 Falken wild peaks 265/75r16 116T for $188 a piece on Amazon from simple tire. If you want a beefy look and you don't do major off roading these are great.
I've got the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 on my M3 Sr+. Europe.
I still say switching to Michelin Pilot Sport 3 All seasons was the best choice I made; a bit lower efficiency but they are actually a decent width so you have some protection from curb rash. They also have significantly better rating on all performance metrics and are cheaper then the Primacy.
The Michelin PS4 DT1 tires are very good for road-use, plenty of grip, handle wet roads without any fuss, and I think they'll last me 20.000km or so, even with some light trackday use.
We got a set of these on our Accord as winter tires this past fall. They worked great in any and all weather that we ran into. I generally dislike directonal tires but we got in a bind and these had the correct fitment for our car. They have some noise and a bit of squirm but honestly, you really have to look for it. They do like to collect stones though.
Was able to get Falkens this year and they are amazing for me. Less initial bite than the nexens but way more grip if you lean into it instead of snapping the wheel.
I'm on my third set of Michelins on my current Camry and with the most recent set I upgraded to the Defenders from the stock Energy Savers. They've been great so far. The Defenders have handled heavy rain super well for me, and were decent in whatever snow we got in the past year.
For what it\u2019s worth, I went down two wheel sizes with my 2018 Golf R. 19 to 17 for Michelin snow tires, from 235/35-19 to 225/45-17. Not much weather yet to really test but some handling loss of course.
Went from Toyo all-seasons to Bridgestone RE-71Rs. It was... absurd.
Now my car has Michelin Pilot Sport AS3 on them and they're... so disappointing. My friends all comment on how well my car grips but after experiencing what is essentially road-legal racing slicks I just find myself a bit disgusted with how easily these break traction.
