Tires MICHELIN or Hifly
I’ve run several sets of PS4S on different cars and have my first set of DWS06 on my GTi, and I will say that they are very impressive so far. I’d say they give 85-90% of the performance of a PS4S
My 255/35R19 Michelin PS AS4s are pretty good, but I can tell a significant difference in traction between the AS4s and the S005s that came stock. Could also be that the 255s are pinched on the stock 19x8 wheels. This said, I think I can recommend them
Just got a set of these on (with 18x8 +45 wheels). Less road noise and a much smoother ride over the bumps. Highly recommend.
Our first change from the OEM tires was to the Michelin CrossClimate 2 - so far, 2 years and 30ish thousand miles with plenty of tread remaining
I have Michelin Cross Climate 2’s on my 2019. They are a great tire.
I put Michelin Defender 2 tires on my 2019 Ody and so far they are excellent. They are very quiet and soft-riding. They have an 80k mile treadwear warranty.
If anyone is interested I have a set of barely used Michelin X-Ice Snow Tires and aluminum rims 245/45R18. I only used them for 3 months but traded in my Arteon for a Tiguan.
Tirerack has Michelin defender LTX M/S for $282. I have them on my overland and love them. Stock were Goodyears and they only lasted about 35k miles. Replaced those with Nittos and they were really loud and never really balanced well. I replaced the nittos at 80k miles with the defender LTX M/S and couldn’t be happier. They have 38k on them and they look new. Great all around tire that is great on the highway and can do mild off road conditions.
My MX doesn’t have foam in the replacement tires I got but I haven’t noticed a difference! In my original 19in continental on a SR+ Model 3 and went to Michelin and noticed a huge sound and range difference esp in my kWh usage.
I put the CrossClimate2's on my 2015 Jetta TDI. 4% loss in fuel economy. Not only that but the car lost it's precise on center feel and required much more correction to keep in straight. Feels like driving on underinflated snow tires. I hate them and will replace them with the OEM Bridgestone Ecopias.
