I think they're the best I use it for my 2009 Yamaha Zuma 125 love them
Just put one of these on the rear, very happy with it so far
100% agree. Have used’m exclusively for 6 years on my Yamaha XMax 400 ABS. Consistently reliable and when paired with ABS you’re good to go in any weather or surface. Worth every penny.
My 2022 Forza came with the City Grip 1 but I poped my rear tire and the dealserchip got me a City Grip 2.
I read a lot of comments saying they lack grip but I never had any issues. Heck ! I even drove in 5cm deep water with them (albait slow and cautiously) and they never failed me.
That being said I also ran Michelin and they handle extremely well in the snow.
Love love love my Alpins. They are no Blizzaks but the fact that they drive incredibly well in the cold dry roads adds so much pleasure to winter driving. I also don't need to commute so I just hang out for a day while they plow. They handle mild snow fine too
Michelin defenders. Original equipment on my 2013 Leaf. They have .800" of tread when new. Not like all the other tires that have only .400" of tread new. I have 82K miles on the with 20% of the tread left now. Getting 4.1 miles per KW. You can't beat these tires...
I live in NE and got Michelin Alpin 4s and like them quite bit. Its not too crazy here and if we get deep snow I have other options. We have an SUV I can use and since the pandemic I can work from home which is a huge help. I haven't driven in snow in years. If you only have the R as your daily and MUST drive in snow then I agree with the above statement that pure winter tires are a better choice. For me the Alpins ride quite nicely and don't feel squirmy or get hard as a rock when the temp drops.
My OEM Michelin PS4’s were gone after about 14k miles of abuse (new car excitement).
As someone who cheated out on tires and ended up losing traction going around a curve in the rain, fishtailing to the other side of the road and getting t-boned by a vehicle twice the size of mine, I’ve made it a rule to never cheap out on tires again. Michelin is one of the better brands out there IMO.
