Tires MICHELIN or Nokia
Running Pilot Sport Cup 2s here on track - huge fan so far!
Good Info Thanks for the info on this thread, I ordered 245/35/19 Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires for my 2015 S3 with Magnetic Ride and ECS Tuning flush spacer kit. I'll post pictures of how they fit after they get installed tomorrow. Tires are the best mod, I can't wait to be off these Continentals :laugh:
I went with Nokian Entyre 2.0. They handle really great, balanced out with no vibrations, and are quite quiet. If you get stuck driving in the rain these tires handle great in wet conditions as well. I've had them on for 40'000 and I'm still at about 70%. Good tire for lots of miles.
For real life treadwear experience, all I can tell you is I have done 20000KMs, 7 track days, and about 10 autocrosses on my PSS on my e36 m3 and I'd bet I have 60% tread left.
I've been happy with the Michelin Pilot 3S all-seasons (I think that's the name), pretty quiet for an ultra high performance all season.

Yes, i noticed a difference, but not drastic.
I am very impressed with the traction on Ice and Snow its amazing.
I have X-ice 3 on my Tucson and they are great. My brother also has them on his Tucson, he does daily highway drives and he loves them.
I just want to add my 0.02$ on this, I recently bought my first Nokian tires every to put on our new Explorer and I can honestly say in the 3000km's we've driven in the last month that they are hands down the best winter tires I've ever experienced. Time will tell how much performance will be lost as they wear down and how long they will last but to date, color me very impressed. Mine are studded and the ice performance is outstanding fwiw.
