Im using michelin pilot alpin 5 on my e91 not awd. I also use weight on the back of the car for more grip. Im living on the mountain between italy and austria. No other tire work Better in my opinion.
I bought Michelin Cross climate 2 tires 3 years ago and they solved all my traction problems.
Yea any E rated tire is going to suffer on ride quality. I’ve settled on Michelin Defender ms2s. They come in a 275/65/20 - 34.1” P rated tire. Gives me the taller stance I like but are not an aggressive looking tire. Ride quality is fantastic.
Michelins all year round for me in Kent UK. It’s great.
Michelin pilot sport 4s are a step above the nt555
I've ran PS4's in Cali too, I think they're worth the price. Ever since I switched to Hankook all-seasons, I miss the PS4's every day.
Michelen X-ice for my XC60. Now I crunch everywhere I go but necessary in this environment.
Will be same here in a few weeks, except Michelin X ice on steels. They kinda look small on the truck to me compared to the XLT wheelset but they ride good. If you have AWD, you will really be loving it in the snow. FWD is serviceable, but can slip going uphill if I have to stop. Torque steering in deep snow too, I have to apply constant corrections. AWD should be much better. There is an efficiency hit with the softer rubber, but low temps make a much bigger impact on mpg I think. Not a worry really, just the cost of doing business.
I now drive on x-ice snow, and I don’t have a comparison (I buy new winter tires every 6 years or so on different vehicles) but I do find the x-ice snow to lose grip somewhat rapidly at the limit, and prefer a more gradual slip at limit.
Od svih koje sam imao, Alpin 5 je bila najgora.
