Have Michelins on it now and it rides great, and the idle has always been slightly rough since new. I have the basic engine and still uses no oil.
But it\u2019s spacious, good gas, and with Michelin sport tires, it rides like a dream. Seriously, upgrading the tires on the seltos makes the car mesmerizing. Almost hitting 60k on it.
Replaced the OEM Michelin Primacy XCs at 55k miles. They were down to ~1-2/32nds but still perfectly smooth and quiet. Very pleased with Michelin.
I got the Michelin's earlier this year and have been extremely happy with them. They do lack that aggressive look some want but if you want ride comfort and highway driving these have to be top of list. I believe they're winter rated and all reviews I watched said rain performance was near top for category.
I have been running the Michelin tires for years. Long ago I drove on the set of Michelins till the steel belts were coming out the sides, may pop style. They never did go flat and friends would joke about getting behind me at night. That they could tell it was me because there were sparks coming from the tires. Replaced a set on a Sport Trac I had on since 2002 a couple years ago. They still had tread, it was just that dry rot settled in around the rims. Was cracked so bad that I could put my fingers into the cracks. Wife pestered me so bad that I had to replace them.
Michelin Defender LTX M/S2. Top notch whether towing or prowling the town. Tough, quiet, very smooth ride. Due to lighter weight, one to two mpg more than OEM Hanook crapola.
Actually pretty good on snow.
Just picked these up a set of these same speck as yours for my MK7.5 GTI I had to run a 5mm rear spacers to avoid rubbing on the rear OEM shocks and passenger gas filler neck and wheel liner with Michelin PS4S tires 245/40/18 square set. Fronts fit okay wider fenders might help.
I had commander 2s on my V-Star 650 and commander 3s on my Road Star. They perform pretty similarly in my opinion. My only gripe with the 3s is that they get this harmonic resonance at certain speeds. I thought my engine was having a fit. Turns out it wasn't the engine, the 3s just like to hit that sweet spot and send vibrations in waves. It's hard to describe.
At first I thought they were decent but now at 20k miles they don't grip nearly as well, even with my AWD. I turned off traction control the other day and with a damp road (not raining) I did a 4 wheel burnout up to about 50 mph.
