I would suggest replacing those tires (this applies to model 3 and y) with a Michelin pilot sport 4s if you live in warmer climates and Michelin pilot sport 4A/S for people who experience temperatures below 10 degrees for more than a few days of winter. The acoustic foam adds unsprung weight to the wheel and beside the pilot sports are far stickier and much softer ride. And better performance in every category.
I have a MYP that came with Pirellis. I got 27K miles out of them, but being that they're summer tires, they had zero snow ability and didn't perform well under 45F. I just got all new Michelin Pilot Sport AS4's and they are so much better in every category. The ride quality is a massive improvement and they handle better imo. They're also all season and have a much higher tread life.
What's most important to me is the traction: dry, wet, snow. I want one of the best all season tires I can get, regardless of the sound or ride quality. I ended up going with Michelin CrossClimate 2, lots of reviews out there and I believe one of the best all season.
My experience was the same with the factory tires (I know you changed yours out). I replaced those at 70k with Michelin Cross Country II’s and HOLY CRAP, what a difference.
The CrossClimate2 is an incredible tire that beats everything else in its class. Look at the reviews online, it's amazing and worth every penny. The Kumhos aren't nearly as good.
Trust me, the Michelin Cross Climate 2's are a fantastic tire, do well in all kinds of weather and just make the car feel more planted.
I can buy this certificate for around $150 (total for 4 tires) right after I buy a new car? Michelin self sealing OEM tires, that basically have no warranty for blow outs or side wall issues. Seems like a bargain on a car with no spare.
I have two Michelin tires made in West Germany.
I have also done track days on my PS4s when I was a novice. They hold okay depending on how many sessions and temp.
I am about to sell my Michelin ice x snows. I do not like them. They slide more then they should.
