The michelin defender 2 is rated for 70 or 80k miles, and is generally very quiet.
Upgrade them to michellin pilot sports all season worth every penny. More grip for that torque!
If you run 17 inch, go for 215/45R17. Get the Michelin Pilot sport 4s or 5, Goodyear Eagle F1 Asym 6, or Conti Sportcontact 7/extremecontact (depends if you're in EU or US). Those are the best allround tires you can get. 215/45 offers a bit more contact and a bit more comfort
I swapped my 22" Pirelli Scorpions with the 22" Michelin Defender MS/2 115H. The ride is much more supple, and they cost far less than the Scorpions, while the efficiency is nearly the same (within .14 kwh/mi).
Michelin Pilot Sport as4 or whatever the current version is. Darn near summer tire grip but with all the benefits of an All Season. And they still manage to have a tread life mileage guarantee.... I've been through many a set.
put on pilot sport 4s now.
Michelin PS AS4 handle much better & can take light snow as well. Getting noise complaints on CC2 as they wear plus my Costco installer tells me they throw rocks.
I recently bought 17" wheels/tires from Tirerack (Michelins) and they feel great on my 2024 GTI Autobahn. I really don't like the stock 19" wheels.
Weather peaks have garbage treadlife. CC2 is obviously a top contender. I would go CC2 for true all weather or WRG5s for better winter performance and slightly worse summer performance
I HAVE THEM ON MY CAR AND THEY DO GIVE YOU A CHOPPY RIDE AFTER HAVEING michelin tires for year on my car you can tell the dif.
