Tires MICHELIN or GENERAL TIRE
I try to get safer tires, which are often performance tires. Less concerned with longevity, more concerned with emergency stopping distance. Michelin Pilot Sport AS4
Michelin CrossClimate2. They are snow and ice rated, can be driven all year round, have good handling, and will last you 60,000 miles easily. I’m on my second set. They work well in snow and ice.
Michelin's Cross Climate 2 is the current gold standard for All-Weather tires, are very capable and can last upwards of 40k miles.
I would recommend Michelin CrossClimate 3 if you're willing/able to afford them. They are the best all-rounder tyre available in the UK right now
Honestly you want the Pilot power 5's. I get over 5k miles on mine easy! And I ride really hard as far as riding goes. Cannot recommended them enough!
Road 6s will definitely make your bike feel planted. Well they do on mine. Definitely got more trust in leaning in and pressing more on surfaces where I normally sketch out.
As long as it's not deep mud I have had good luck with Michelin LTX M/S tires
Drive on studded for 20+/- years then switched to Michelin X-Ice. Damn nice tires and act just like studs without the WHRRRRRRRR noise all winter.
Chill mode shpild be more efficient, but I put my YP in sport mode when there's enough snow and ice on the road to be slippery. I drive with it in chill most of the time for efficiency and to save tires, but last winter the rear stepped out a few times in snow and ice at speeds from 25 MPH around a traffic circle and on a curve going up a steep grade on the interstate at 60 MPH even with Michelin Ice-X tires on 19s.
I'm lowered on coils but I still rub. I have shitty Westlake tires. I failed inspection because one of the tires was separating. Long story short got a used Michelin tire and well it rubs like shit.
