Tires MICHELIN or Kormoran
Michelin Power Cup. I'm very happy with them
I agree with Michelin Defender II (the dealership put them in mine when I bought it, they're great)
I have Michelin Primacy A/S tires on my CX5, and I'm very happy with them. The ride is quiet and comfortable, and they handle really well
I put CC2s on my 17 Corolla. I was worried that it would be overkill, but as someone who has pretty much always cheaped out on tires, the upgrade was unbelievable. I live in Seattle, so we don't get a lot of snow. They handle extremely well in the rain.
I didn't replace my factory Yokohama tires on my 2022 Limited until around 38k miles, and I still had around 1/4" tread left. I wanted better winter tires and replaced them with Michelin Cross-Climate 2 tires with a 60k tread wear warranty. There is a bit more ride noise than with my Yokohama tires, but nothing a few more decibels on the radio doesn't fix
If you're not regularly trekking into the mountains, all-weather tires like the Michelin CrossClimate are great. They perform really well in snow and you don't have to worry about swapping them out annually.
I picked up a set of Michelin CrossClimate 2 and they are great tires. Can keep them on year round but much better in the snow than typical all seasons. They are pricey but well worth it IMO.
I have driven 5,000 miles on these tires with no loss in gas milage. I have 2023 Toyota Hybrid Highlander... I drive at 80 MPH on average and still get 28 to 30 mpg. Great tires.
I have a 22 CX-5 and replaced my Toyo A36 tires with the Defender 2s. I was already considering switching them out as I dont like the feel, but I noticed today I only got 27.2 mpg on the highway. This is the same trip I make all the time and used to get 30 to 31mpg on the Toyo tires.
The pilot sports are terrible. I burned through my set in 11000 miles.
