Tires MICHELIN or Goodyear
I just got 20” Defender LTX M/S2’s on my R1T, absolutely love them. I got 30k out of the Pirelli’s so I really hope to get at least 40 or 50k out of these.
Personally, I have the Michelin Pilot and can attest to how incredibly awesome they are. Stick to the road like glue and significant road noise reduction over the factory crap Acura puts on it's cars.
I have done 5 seasons on Michelin X-Ice on GD STi and cannot recommend highly enough.
The Michelin Defender tires have settled in well. As you can see, I’m getting significantly better efficiency now that the tires have a few thousand miles on them. 6000 miles in and they are down to 10 mm on tread. Factory tread is 11 mm so I’m very happy with the wear so far. Especially considering the Pirellis only lasted 23k miles. Picture 3, with 12,000 miles is the last 12,000 mile efficiency rating on the Pirelli’s. Picture 2 is the first 3000 miles on the Michelins. I am shocked to see the difference, as I was expecting a loss of efficiency with the Defenders. The data is trending and showing they are in fact a better efficiency tire vs the factory Pirellis. 50 cold psi is a must IMO.
I've had nothing but good experiences with Goodyear Wrangler Duratracs on our 3rd gen, 5th gen, and two trucks. Bonus that you can get them studded if you're running a dedicated winter setup or live in weather that requires it.
Had them on my old Ranger and had zero issues on road and 2wd off road camping, and dirt biking. I even got 60k miles out of them (and they still looked pretty good). Very good bang for the buck.
The Michelin LTX aren’t much to look at, but they have tons of those little sipes in there and make for a low-key snow tire in my experience. Also sound good on the highway
Eu cu michelin alpin 5, tractiune spate nu am avut nici cea mai mica problema iarna la munte. Mi se par niste cauciucuri senzationale pe zapada.
Sada vozim Michelin Cross Climate (all season), vec 4 godine, i dobre su. Iako su Michelin, cisa srednja klasa letnjih su leti bolje od ovih, isto kao i visa srednja klasa zimskih.
I too have Assurance tires that lasted about half the amount of miles they are warranted for.
