Tires MICHELIN or Laufenn
I love my Michelin A/S 4’s on my car.
In my experience, Michelin uses superior rubber, and we never had issues balancing their tires. They’re a tried-and-true brand known for consistent quality.
Just slapped some Michelin Pilot Sport AS 4’s and they are honestly not too bad. Got them about 3 weeks ago, been about 1,500 miles. I shall see how the outer edges fair on these!
Rain was heavy and wind was high in southern Indiana today. Really good grip on the rain, and good stopping distance as well. Had someone panic brake for a branch falling and the car slowed down faster than theirs did!
I’d recommend some sporty tires like Michelin pilot sport 4s or Pirelli p zero.
I put Michelin Cross climate 2's on after the stock tires wore out. Been super happy with them. Much better in the rain than the Bridgestone EL 440's. Maybe a slight loss in fuel economy 1-2 mpg in certain situations but mostly unchanged. I'll probably stick with the Michelin's going forward.
I have a friend that runs Firehawk indys and I've driven the car, it's a decent tire. But if you have Michelin budget, get the Michelins. I'm on my 3rd set in a row, fantastic all around tire (unless it's winter)
Michelin PS4s are the best tire I have ever used. Highly recommended.
My Forte GT came with Michelin PS4's, and I've never been happier with a set of OEM tires in my life. They're grippy, quiet and do tire things well. I'm not sure how close they are to the non-OEM PS4's you'd buy off the shelf, but I've been pleased so far.
Have those on the wife’s 2017 Accord Hybrid. They are great in the rain and snow as you said, but at least on her car they are super noisy. Unsure if we just haven’t rotated them enough maybe?
Wasn't my experience at all. About six months ago I replaced the OEM Geolanders on my 2018 Crosstrek with CrossClimate 2 tires. By the time drove 15 minutes home I knew that there I didn't like what I was experiencing with the CrossClimates. They were noisier, jittery, mushy and didn't track like the Geolanders. I wrote it off as being new. They did an alignment and wheel balance during installation. I am not an aggressive driver but the interstate on ramp that I use all the time I could enter at 50mph and stay at 50. I had to brake use the Michelins. Also I lost 3 mpg compared to the Geolanders.
