Tires MICHELIN or Nokia
I run Michelin power 6.
3k miles and they look brand new.
Michelin; been caught in rain dumps on long trips and the michelins were fabulous. Solid in the dry and i felt safe in the wet as well.
Nokian tires are great.
Have a look at [nokians outpost apt](https://simpletire.com/brands/nokian-tires/outpost-apt), should be cheaper than all 3 of your options and it’s also higher temperature and tread wear rated at 700AA vs 620AB, 600AB and 600AB, (tread wear #, traction grade, temperature grade). It also has nokian’s aramid Fiber reinforcement
I decided to try out Michelin x ice snow tires this year. They’ve been great. My EN with these snows is much better in the snow than my previous forester with all seasons.
I have been using Michelin Pilot Sport S 4, and they are the best tire I've ever used on the car and I have used many brands.
When I finally wear out my Bolt tires I am going to be a decent set of Michelines possibly one size up, and see how long they last me.
As unbelievable at this picture looks I have had exactly the same tyre wear on my R58 - my front tyres 3-4mm across tread and both rear tyres almost completely bald across entire width and these were Michelin PS 4
Have used Michelin Cross climates SUV before and got good traction although they didn’t wear that well.
I’ve had these for about 18 months / 15K miles on my 18’ AWD LX and I can’t say I’m a fan. Although they are amazing in the rain. I ironically wish for rain sometimes for longer trips because they drive SO much better on wet pavement compared to dry.
- The road noise is ridiculous on an AWD model.
- They’re wearing very fast for tires with only 15K.
- Drop in fuel efficiency once installed (~2MPG drop).
- Rocks, twigs, and everything else you can imagine get stuck in the grooves and can lead to a rough ride.
