I put pilot sport 4s on my 2014 GT and love them. I stayed away from the run flats and they provide great feedback.
I have had a few cars with continental extreme contacts and loved them. I have a 23 Mach 1 that came with Pilot 4S tires, they are simply amazing. They grip the road like glue and there is zero chatter when cornering hard. I would definitely go with the 4S.
I put Michelin cross climate 2’s on. Love them. Great grip in all seasons. I also don’t hydroplane anymore. And they have a high mile warranty.
General Grabber ATXs are awesome. I’ve had them in 37x12.5 for 40k miles on my gladiator and they are still going strong, and I’ve wheeled on dry rocks in Moab, snowy rocks in Moab, wet rocks and mud in Arkansas, and dusty rocky central TX.
The Michelin Defender 2 is an excellent low rolling resistance tire, though expensive.
Back when I was in college (2001) there was a guy in my class who tested tires in a lab. This was around the time Ford SUV's would flip over, thanks Firestone. He said he would test tires at high speed, different weighs, and tire pressures to test longevity. I asked him which tires were best. He said he couldn't tell me because of confidentiality laws. I asked him which tires he puts on his wife's minivan, and he said he would *only* put Michelin tires on his wife's car.
Always been a bi Michelin fan - never been done wrong with them. They cost a little more, but the ride and quiet are worth it to me. My X5 is right at the 70,000 mile mark with the set of Defender LTX I have on it, and I'd imagine another set is going on right behind them.
michelin pilot sport 4s best tires ever made
I’m in the Pacific Northwest here, probably similar weather conditions like you. I have seen a 2-3 kWh/100 mi increase in consumption compared to the summer tires.
I had a set of Michelin hydroedge on my Mustang, they were awful. No traction in any condition, and dry-rotted similar to shown above, but not quite as bad. And only about 4 years old.
