Tires MICHELIN or Nexen
For better grip Michelin defenders good but expensive and you’ll lose 10% +/- mpg.
Try Michelin road 6’s if you want more of a touring/long life tire.
If you don’t ride hard, get a Michelin road 6.
I would go for Michelin.
I am looking to get the Michelin CrossClimate 2s when these are toast
My 2024 ST has Michelin Premier A/S, which is something I've bought a few times a few times in the past for previous vehicles.
I swapped them for Michelin CrossClimate 2, which at the time were the best tires, at 300 miles on the odometer. Sold the Bridgestone tires for $400 and never looked back. Now clicking over at 60000 and those tires still have tread and tracked fantastically in the snow this past winter.
Get Michelin CrossClimate 2 tires. First time it rains you will see the money was well spent. Best tires I have owned in 33 years of driving.
Our CrossClimates after being fitted mid-2020. The outers are at 3mm, and the inner 4mm. Over 30k miles. Seems acceptable to me. Ours are on a Freelander 2/LR2, so a relatively heavy vehicle.
Never waste money on Michelin tires. Also no point in paying for long lasting tires of any kind if you barely drive. Get less expensive name brand tires and you will be just fine.
