Tires MICHELIN or NITTO
I’ve got a 2013 Ford Taurus limited, and I’ve got the crossclimate 2’s on her. Beat tires I’ve ever had. They’re a little expensive, but they’re well worth it. They’re designed to push snow and rain away from your vehicle. Stoping power even in the snow is great.
I've run both, currently running ridge grapplers. I vote nitto, hands down the best tire I've ever had on a truck. they last forever, ride smooth, aren't too loud on the highway, and are solid in sand.
I have the Michellin Defender LTX. Good grip, but definitely a better tire than my west lakes I had before.
I just traded in those Accords this month for '22 Sport 2.0T's that came stock with Michelin Primacy MXM4. Night and day difference on the road noise and it absolutely gives it a more comfortable ride.
I feel like a broken record with this one, but I highly recommend the Michelin PS4S or PS4AS. They made my accord feel a whole lot more connected to the road, and the All Seasons handle Wisconsin winters just fine.
If you can afford it, Michelin is worth it in the long run. They’re the only tire I know that lasts longer than the warranty period based on Consumer Reports.
I was going to replace with the same tire but decided to try the Michelin AS4. I would observe the following :
Dry grip - Michelin is better feel and grip around corners
Wet grip - not scientific but think the DWS is marginally better
Road feel / noise / ride quality - I like the Michelins slightly better
This year has been crazy, I’m into three sets of Michelins 2xPS4S on the 981 and 911 plus a set of PSS on the BMW
I have the nitto 555R2 radial, and STILL spin from a street dig, but overall they handle well while mostly having traction.
I would stay away from the Pilot Sport A/S 3+. I put a pair on the back of my 15 E550 Coup. 4,000 miles and they were bald.
