I got the Michelin Defenders (stock 17\"). Definitely feel better than the Pirelli Scorpion Verdes that came with the car IMO. Tig is quiet and smooth, handles potholes very well, even makes my dirt road seem very smooth and quiet. Rain puddles like they aren't even there. Snow like a champ. Drove in a monster snowstorm this past winter, cars were off the road left and right, plows just couldn't keep up with it... Tig was driving like a tank, non-issue. Summer driving has been fun too!
An alternative to the Indy 500 tires is the Hankook Ventus V12 Evo2. I have them on both of my cars and love them, although they are just a little bit on the noisy side.
Michelin super sports Have them, love them, will buy again
Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires are generally highly regarded and will be pretty damn grippy, especially if you're used to cheap tires
I have 19 in wheels on my lux and found Michelin lattitudes would get 40+ Miles.
I run Michelin Pilot Sport 4’s all year round in the UK with no issues. Good tyres.
I highly recommend Michelin A/S 3+ all weathers. They are amazing, my only issue so far is that they’re a little loud (road noise in the summer), but they have incredible grip, and seem to hold out great given the crazy weather.
Have you experienced any issues with the Michelins? I run them and they have been flawless.
Both are good budget performance tires but the uniroyals will wear faster. The Hankooks arent very good when wet, but the uniroyals are excellent as the name suggests.
I just replaced a set of dry-rotted, cracked Michelin's with tread that seemed nearly brand new. It really sucked to fail an inspection because of tires with so much tread left.
