Tires MICHELIN or OEM BMW
Michelin by far. I have Pilot Sport AS3+ on my car, and they’re fantastic.
Personally I’ve been buying Michelin pilot sports and I don’t see it changing any time soon at this point
It’s the best tire I’ve purchased over the years and until I drive something better I can’t justify any other brand
I’ve had loads of pirellis too, and they were my go to prior to the Michelins,
Performance in rain on the pilot sports is what really sets them apart for me. Might as well be dry roads 24/7 with those things
Michelin, for the win. They have stronger sidewalls
I put a set of Michelin Crossclimate 2 on my 2016 OBL over a year and a half ago and would not switch to or recommend any other tire for all around use here in New England. Amazing traction in any kind of situation I've been in.
The first time I put Michelin Pilot Supersports on my E92 BMW I was awestruck. Not only were those tires amazing, but they were replacing runflats which were garbage in any metric besides their ability to run flat which I never used.
Michelin Defender, great sound and 80000 mile tread life warranty. But the Toyos are nothing but hot garbage. I was too cheap to replace them and they gave up the ghost around 35000 miles. I have 25000 miles on the Defenders and still sound the same as new.
Michelin is a good brand too. Went with those my last tire change and they’re still going strong ????
Michelin's! Great grip especially in rainy weather, which is a priority for me. Plus, they're surprisingly quiet for a tire with such good handling.
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.
Thoughts on CrossClimate2 for San Francisco/CA climate? Considering these for 2020 Kia Niro EV to replace current OEM Michelin Primacy MXV4, which we have found to be terribly un-grippy in rain.
