Tires MICHELIN or Nokia
I wouldn’t hesitate getting the Michelin LT ATX tires, I am of the opinion that it is a better tire than the defender line.
I run Michelin X-Ice's in the winter and they are dynamite. Way better traction than the scorpions in snow, slush, and ice.
Based on store inventory and ratings, I’m going with Michelin CrossClimate2 since they are available today.
Recently swapped out the horrendous oem Hankook street tires with Nokian Outpost nAT LT275/70r18. By FAR the best tires I’ve ever had on a vehicle. Actually more quiet than the stocks, better handling and lost no mpg’s.
I recently got the Defender LTX MS2 and was deciding between the Toyo AT3 and the Defenders. Since I drive 99% on highways, with an annual off-road camping trip and a few winter snow trips, I’m thrilled with my choice! The tires are very quiet and well-cushioned. The tread seems aggressive enough for my needs.
Michelin Primacy are good road going tyre imo, reputable brand, high quality and has lasted many many 1000s of miles.
I just installed Michelin pilot sport AS on my 11 328 and they are well worth the cost.
Absolutely. You don’t always need the best of the best for the type of tire you want (Michelin PS4 for example) but you absolutely want a good brand.
I had commander 2s on my V-Star 650 and commander 3s on my Road Star. They perform pretty similarly in my opinion. My only gripe with the 3s is that they get this harmonic resonance at certain speeds. I thought my engine was having a fit. Turns out it wasn't the engine, the 3s just like to hit that sweet spot and send vibrations in waves. It's hard to describe.
Not a fan of Nokian, they slip like crazy. I have some of their all seasons on my RX350 and they are like hockey pucks, just sliding everywhere.
