Tires MICHELIN or NANKANG
Michelins defender platinum.
Never look back. Quieeeeet and long lasting. Great rain performance.
Have about 5k on the Michelins after 55K on General Grabbers. As far as quiet goes, the Michelins are definitely quieter (and I think smoother) than the Generals.
I had defenders on my old truck and they last forever.
I drive heavy snow in the winter and logging roads in the summer. I found the stock Michelins hold up really well, and are extremely quiet without slipping in dirt or snow. The tires just don't look like they should work as well as they do.
I run these to get to ski resorts from denver on cold ass winter mornings. Good tire
We’re on 2nd set of the cross climates on an XC90. Only downside is they are a little noisy. Soooo much better than OEM tires…
Only thing that’s been on our Polestar 2 since the day we bought it back in 2022. Just put second set on after 60k miles, so I can vouch for the tread wear rating.
I use 18" Michellin X winters in STL/KC MO area, have every winter since 2023. Have never felt my car (2022 m3 lr dual motor) slip even during ice storms or snow like last year where people were sliding sideways in STL and I have a very steep drive to get in and out of
Me and my parents both had DWS06's on our 2016/2020 Mazda3's, respectively. They wore out way too early and one of my parents' tires had some really random tire construction-related problem that led them to replacing the Contis with the PSAS4s. They've been happy with those tires so far, I think they're a bit noisy and ride a bit stiff but response and grip-wise they're stellar.
I had the Michelin AS4 on my last car, I wouldn't do them again. They're loud and ride poorly.
