Tires MICHELIN or KENDA
I have Michelin cross climate 2's. Been about 3, maybe almost 4yrs now. About 35k miles put on them. Maybe a bit more? Threads are still pretty good.
If you only do pavement the michelins are by far the best quiet and smooth. Also do great in snow an water.
Kenda UHP Max+ are a great double-duty tire. They last long and have great grip. They are pretty good in wet conditions too.
I had mt2 285/75/16 on my hilux surf, I now have Yokohama geolanders. I would say the kendas are a bit softer compound and quieter, but the geolanders are a bit better in the mud. The kendas were awesome tyres off and on road though.
I have the Kenda klever r/it's on my 2025 Tacoma TRD. I put 5,000 miles on them on the highway as well as in the desert in the sand mountains and snow. These are some of the best tires I've ever had, and certainly their price was very reasonable as well.
Michelin Pro Sport Tires! Hands down
I had stock pirellis on my S4 (yeah I realize this is a Porsche sub). Switched to Michelin PS4s and never went back. Very noticeable difference in quality, grip, performance, quietness, and smoothness. They lasted a bit longer than the Pirellis too.
4S’s were game changing.
A bald Michelin gives more grip and stopping power than a new budget tyre
I have this issue with Michelin Defender tires. Brand new set. Rebalanced 4 times at 3 different shops and an alignment and just feel so unsteady on them. Also feel like I notice every imperfection in the road.
