Tires MICHELIN or GENERAL TIRE
Loving my new Crossclimate 2s. Was worried they would impact my range, but they haven't. Fantastic grip in all conditions.
I just put Michelin Defenders on my car, replacing the original Bridgestone Alenza.
I guess they aren't considered EV tires but they are doing well as far as I can tell. My range hasn't taken a hit at all.
Grabber ATX, hands down. Less expensive than a KO2, but last longer, and are FAR better in snow/ice/wet conditions.
There are a lot of anecdotes out there that the foam doesn't make a dimes difference in noise levels. I'll add to them that when I replaced mine with Michelins fro Costco the noise level actually went down.
Personally I'm a Michelin guy. Have used both on my cars and would only go Michelin from here on out
MYLR owner here. Replaced OEM continentals at 35k miles with Costco Michelin PS AS4. Much quieter and ride was more comfortable over potholes. Initial 2-3k miles I had a drop in efficiency but after that the efficiency has been the same or perhaps better than original continentals. It's also much better with handling in almost all conditions ie snow, rain and summer.
I recently replaced the original pilot sport 4 for a set of cross climate 2. Was a bit worried how much sound will be impacted since cc don't have the foam. It was a little bit of a different sound, not louder just a different tone. But stopped noticing anything the next day.
On my 2019 M3, I had Continental tires with foam as well. I replaced them with Michelin sport pilot 4 (no foam) and to be honest they were quieter than the factory tires.
I have the Generals right now and while they're fine for grip and what not, they are very noisy.
The Michelin tires weren’t a great choice if you were gunning for a podium at Indianapolis in 2005.
