Tires MICHELIN or Goodyear
I had put Michelin Crossclimate 2 tires on my Model 3. I lost about 10% range but gained a much better traction in rain and snow.
I got 50k out of a set of OEM LS-2’s on my AWD Ford Fusion. Not a Goodyear guy at all, but these tires were very good.
Anyways I'm picking up a set of Michelin Cross Climate 2s tomorrow...I am very impressed how these tires preform on our Atlas.
Michelin - I've had the Pilot Super Sport and Pilot AS4+. They're definitely not cheap, but hands down superior to the Continental equivalent. The AS4+ is almost grippy enough to compete with the Conti summer tire, while also being quieter and producing slightly higher gas mileage.
I've rocked Michelin AS4 (and their predecessor) for years in my cars...Zero issues and only switched to the Continental just to try something different...the performance they can now get out of all season tires is pretty impressive.
As much as I love the Continental DWS 06+, I needed to purchase a set of Michelin Cross Climate 2 tires. The Continental DWS 06+ were fine. I got by the Winter without problems. There were only 3 times that I felt that I could use a more Winter like tire.
Michelin pilot sport as are the best all season tire out there, hence why you see them on supercars and hypercars.
But the best set I have ever owned was a set of Michelin Defenders. Smooth and you always felt glued to the road.
Our CrossClimates after being fitted mid-2020. The outers are at 3mm, and the inner 4mm. Over 30k miles. Seems acceptable to me. Ours are on a Freelander 2/LR2, so a relatively heavy vehicle.
My Goodyear eagles that came with my 2022 suck mainly because of how loud they are driving on dry payment.
