Tires MICHELIN or Kumho
I actually just grabbed a set of Kumho solus 4s all weather for Canadian driving and I absolutely love them on my awd suv! It was between those and the falcon wildpeak AT trail …both had great reviews so I went with the Kumho because slightly cheaper and I think I can see myself buying these again
I have the cross climate and they are far better in snow than the stock primacy tires. Since switching it’s snowed a bunch more times and it’s been fine.
Even just driving 20 miles the OEM contis pctx and switching directly to the Michelins I can say they are definitely a more quality tire. For 1 the sidewalls on them dont create a worrying lip as if theyre stretched. The ride quality on them is absolutely amazing! Feel much more durable and going over normal bumps or the occasional pothole thats unavoidable gives me way more confidence. Also due to the stiffer sidewalls they feel way more responsive. Drove around 100 miles on them today and can say for certain that I will continue to be using these for however long I own this car!
I ran these on my Mustang when I couldn't get Pilot Sport 4S tires at the time. I liked them. They were grippy and comfortable but did have a softer sidewall than the Michellin.
Tire brand I have always been very satisfied with Michelin Tires for traction, ride and quite ride (little road noise).
Highly recommend Michelin. Ride well, quiet,with 80k warranty.
Pilot Sport All Season 4 is the natural progression of the tire you have toward a car that's more daily-able. They're great. Run them as my summers on my Fiat 124 Abarth. Not quite as grippy as a PS4/PS4S, but with the same good predictable feeling you'd want + less variable handling when cold vs. warm, better wear life, and better performance when temps get a little colder in the fall and winter. It's the same tire design philosophy but in a more practical package that's, imo, better for street use. Great choice if you want to get a bit slideways but also have a very predictable experience.
I switched to them from Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+, which were great tires.
I would go with the ones that are the quietest. I have some Michelins with the V tread on a Lexus. Good tires but loud.
At first I thought they were decent but now at 20k miles they don't grip nearly as well, even with my AWD. I turned off traction control the other day and with a damp road (not raining) I did a 4 wheel burnout up to about 50 mph.
