I went a different direction and fit bigger tires on stock suspension. Looks like they are about 1" bigger in diameter and a little narrower. It was real tight in there so I wouldn't have gone any bigger than the 215/65/16s I ended up with (Falken Wildpeak AT, late model Audi rims) on factory setup.
Get rid of the subpar tires. A Michelin climate-cross plus tire would make your car shine.
why not try out the new michelin pilot sport all season 4. They are not as sporty as as3+ but the ride is much much better. For the sporty asaspect if as3+ is a 10/10 then as4 is 9.3/10. I just put them on it feels good driving it.
Got mine this winter shortly after I bought a 2019 Alltrack S. Great in snow, rain, dry.
The tires are very nice; comfortable and quiet, very good in all the conditions the Northeast brings.
I replaced the second set of Firestones on my Jeep Grand Cherokee with these Michelin's and the road noise diminished greatly. They were great in our northern Indiana snow this winter. My driving is 75% highway, no off-road, but we do get snow and ice. I'm pleased with them.
Michelin Pilot Sport 4S
No other choice in my opinion. As a fellow spirited driver with a V8, tyres are the most important thing and these are reasonably priced and super safe for high speeds.
I would say stick with Michelin’s. Best combination of grip, comfort, road noise and tread wear. Based on experience Pirellis and Contis tend to wear out faster (P Zeros), Bridgestone is so so.
Energysavers arent so good on wet surfaces, but on normal driving I did not have any problems conserning traction. I had them at rear for 2 years. They last very long.
I just replaced a set of dry-rotted, cracked Michelin's with tread that seemed nearly brand new. It really sucked to fail an inspection because of tires with so much tread left.
