They are the most quietest well balanced and slow wearing tires (as long as your on pavement) I think I've ever had. They handle like a dream.
After much searching, I replaced my worn tires with the original MXM4. Pricey yes, but they are excellent tires and worth the extra dollars for the extra range (independently verified).
I have had the old pilot sports and the new pilots … only regret is they never break traction . Absolutely the best tires in the market .
Michelin's X-ice's are pretty competitive.
I had Pilot sport as3 a few years back but got as4 when I got my new wheels and they’re good. They’re able to keep the power down, some wheel spin in second, with my new build that makes 655 to the wheels.
I’ve had both on my 2016. The biggest difference I noticed immediately after switching from the dws06 to the pilot sports is the road noise. The Michelin’s are much quieter and overall have been the best tires I’ve ever owned.
I have been driving for about a month on Michelin Defenders (21"; purchased/installed at Costco) and will never go back to the Pirellis. Quieter for road travel, good handling, minimal difference in range
I ran the Michelins for 8 winters here in BC. They are an excellent tire. Good in rain, snow and ice (ice performance degraded after about the third season).
Previously I had Michelin Defender xlt. While I would prefer a more pavement oriented tire the Coopers where the only load range E tires I could get on a 3 day turnaround when I needed them.
I liked the Michelins but the xl load rating was just too squirmy while towing a 7000lb trailer.
Wasn't my experience at all. About six months ago I replaced the OEM Geolanders on my 2018 Crosstrek with CrossClimate 2 tires. By the time drove 15 minutes home I knew that there I didn't like what I was experiencing with the CrossClimates. They were noisier, jittery, mushy and didn't track like the Geolanders. I wrote it off as being new. They did an alignment and wheel balance during installation. I am not an aggressive driver but the interstate on ramp that I use all the time I could enter at 50mph and stay at 50. I had to brake use the Michelins. Also I lost 3 mpg compared to the Geolanders.
