the Kumho TA51 (assuming TA51a as it is the current production) is a well reviewed and tested very low rolling resistance tire, thanks to a silica-enhanced tread compound. Most reviewers and owners over time generally note a small INCREASE in fuel economy of 1-3 MPG.
Michelin XM2+ Based on my 6 years of using it, I only got a puncture once, and it was on just one tire. There were no visible cracks, never bumaba sa 25psi yung pressure ko even months of not having to put air on it because of the busy sched, I never rotated the tires, and our area is full of potholes — but don't imitate me!
Hindi maingay even until the end na pinalitan ko siya with the same tires
When I had them replaced, there was still about 5mm left before reaching the tread wear indicator.
Michelin Primacy 4ST is the tits for your criteria.
Get the michelin. Why? Because they'll save you roughly 5 dollars in gas every fill up at the pump compared to the cheap garbage tires out there, alongside lasting 60-80k miles with good rotations.
IMO, Michelin CrossClimate 2s are the way to go
I had the BF Goodrich Comp 2s. Great tires on my 16. On my 21 CE I have Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4, better tire than the Comp 2s (the comp 2s looked better however). The Michelins just have more traction and handle the torque better. I also feel they are better laterally.
I had two sets of the Kumho Crugen HT51 SL. I liked both times and they lasted about 40,000 miles each. Seemed low but they're snow rated so I know those don't get as many miles because the rubber is softer. They handled great in snow/sleet/ice and enabled my front wheel drive van to go through lots of winter weather driving.
This last set (third owned) pissed me off though and barely made it 18,000 miles even with proper inflation and alignment.
You can get a great set of tires at Costco (Pilot sport all season on my S5). Good tires pay for themselves ( if properly inflated) in fuel efficiency savings!
I still prefer my Michelin LTXs. Got over 50k miles on them and just now noticing traction issues.
I'm in Buffalo ny and I can't stand the CC2 tires had them on a Dodge minivan. In fresh snow where nobody else has driven these tires were actually really good but as soon as you got into the street where people were driving already Boy oh boy did that front end slip around all over the place. After stopping at a red light or a stop sign I would be stuck trying to go with other vehicles flying around me super disappointed in these tires. With the high rating of these tires I really expected a lot more. I switched to a used discontinued firestone and now I have the best grip ever. The difference is unbelievable
