Tires MICHELIN or Hankook
I've had the Michelin Crossclimate 2 for the last few years. Great tires. I've driven them in -55 fahrenheit with snow and ice to 110 fahrenheit, rain storms and so on with no issues. The only con is that they are a bit loud on the highway.
I am on my second pair of Cross Climates and love them. Great traction on gravel, wet pavement and even is snow. Great mileage at highway speed of 30mph in my 2015 Forester. Only downside is they are a bit noisy.
We have the Michelin CC2s. They are great in dry weather and snow. I love that I don't have to swap snow tires on the car anymore.
Very happy with my Michelin Crossclimate 2s. Quiet, fuel efficient and very durable.
Rs4s are the super long (ive done 24hrs on a set) lasting, heatcyle to death with almost all its tread left tyre of choice... But conti ecf last just as long and run at least 1.5s faster per lap (@ wgi).
I do endurance racing as well and the sponsored tire is the Hankook Ventus RS-4. They are a great 200TW tire for traction and durability. If you abuse it they won’t last. They are directionally treaded, but if you run in the dry it won’t matter which direction you run them, so rotating doesn’t have to be an issue. Similar to the AR-1, good lifespan for the performance at the grip levels when compared to the competition.
Kankook RS4, Khumo V730, Conti ECF, Falken RT660+ are tires I would consider on long lasting side of the performance category. I'm not sure they even make the RS4 now but there should be lots of old stock. Those tend to last so long you end up heat cycling them before burning up the rubber.
Inner rear tires were down to the cords so I needed new tires. Had an alignment done with the adjustable arms and wanted to go wider to fill out the rim and provide some curb protection.
No efficiency data yet but it's so smooth and quiet compared to the stock tires.
J'avais des Hancook milieu de gamme avant, j'ai fait le choix de prendre des Primacy 4 à l'avant au dernier changement.
Je n'ai pas senti de différence en termes d'accroche par rapport aux Hancook mais ceux-ci s'étaient usés assez vite surtout à l'avant.
I’ll never buy another set of hankook as long as I live. I bought some for my Mercedes when I had that, they wore out in 5000 miles, then they fought me on the tread wear warranty to the point that I just put on a different set of tires and moved on with my life.
