The stock conti's are garbage and wear out in 6-8k miles. I replaced them with Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 4's and they've been great.
Have had 2 sets of DWS - always a fan (on a E350 and 335xi with 450+ hp), Michelin Premier LTX (on wifes CX-5) - they're fantastic, Michelin PS4S on the 911 and Pirelli Scorpion Verde for my old grand cherokee. The DWS are great all around tires and the Premier LTX is just a great tire.
Update.... I got the Goodyear Assurance ComfortDrives for the van after some research and discussion with Tire Rack. They have pretty much eliminated tire noise and sharp impacts, which is great.
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.
Goodyear All-Terrain LTs with a silly big lift
I just put new Goodyears on my trailer. One of the 4 was a GY Marathon and it feels so squishy and the sidewalls just feel weak compared to the other Chinese tires so its going in the trash for sure.
