Michelins newest tire the X-Ice Snow which is made or nearly any vehicle out there, has a good amount of less traction when it comes to thick or a lot of snow. However, the ride quality of this tire is the best for any winter tire and well above most all seasons.
I’ve run Blizzaks on my 2014 Forester before, but I’m currently on my second year with a set of Michelin X-Ice and they’ve been great so far. The sidewalls on the X-Ice don’t seem to flex as much as the Blizzak so the car feels better in corners, especially when running on dry pavement.
X-Ice for me. A few reviews noted they did a bit better in slush, water, etc vs just deep snow so they make sense where I live.
Michelin x ice worked awesome for me.
PS4S are the best tires I’ve ever had but are a lot more expensive.
I ran Pilot Sport 4S and they were great, although pricey.
our 2016 didn't come with falken, but whatever similar brand it had were awful and I happily replaced them at 20-25k miles with a set of michelin a/s 3+, which have been much better.
Replaced ours at 20k. They were so loud! Michelin primacy tour I believe. Huge upgrade
I have the Giti's on my R-Line, and they are....barely adequate. I doubt I will wait long to replace them since I do a good bit of highway driving. They are noisy, so I will at least give them a few thousand miles to see how they wear and sound.
Dude. Ran the michellins, ran the Kumhos and twice have run Dunlop SP5000s .. run the dunlops. They're sub $100/tire, grip much better than the kumhos both wet and dry, take longer to wear and are just all around a better tire. Far better than the michellins, for a fraction of the price.
