Tires MICHELIN or GT Radial
A few months ago I put on a set of Michelins on my 23 giulia q4 and so far ive been very impressed. I havent pushed the tires anywhere near their limit and in the rain have been perfect.
Replaced my Goodyears with Michelin Primacy A/S at 14k miles in the PNW.
Running michelin cross climate 2s. 60k mile warranty EV tires. 3 mountain rating as well.
Putting Cross Climate 2’s on was one of the best decisions ever. Wet, dry, snow or sun… doesn’t matter - these tires continue to impress.
I like Michelin Primacy for quiet ride
One thing to note, we absolutely love the Michelin Defenders.
It handles Midwest winters way better than the four options you listed, lasts longer (80k warranty), and feels more planted on heavier SUVs.
Michelin Defender 2 is a wonderful tire
I did get caught out by black ice last week and skidded a bit but then also got caught out in a different place in my mums car which is on Cross Climates, doing about 20mph both times. Both times I luckily got away with it but black ice is black ice, Cross Climates may give a slightly better chance of getting it back after skidding but not enough to be worth it imo.
I put Michelin Pilot AS4s on my Subaru WRX in about Nov 2022. They were great for that winter. Since they're "ultra high performance all-weather" tires, I just planned on running them year-round. Come next winter, though - they were legit dangerous.
