Tires MICHELIN or Pirelli
I had stock pirellis on my S4 (yeah I realize this is a Porsche sub). Switched to Michelin PS4s and never went back. Very noticeable difference in quality, grip, performance, quietness, and smoothness. They lasted a bit longer than the Pirellis too.
4S’s were game changing.
Depends on what you want and what you value, but I put Michelin’s on all of my cars. The ride is better, the handling is better, and they typically wear better.
I’m not sure if they make them in the correct size for the car but the oem star marked ps4s made for bmw are more aggressive and contain a rubber compound more similar to the cup 2s. Tyre reviews compared the regular ps4s to the star marked and raved about them compared to the regular tires.
I have Micheline P4Ss on my 991.1 Carrera S and F90 M5 Competition and can without reservation they are better than the Pirellis they came with.
Get whatever the newest N-spec Michelin is available in your sizes/for your vehicle. Not a fan of the OEM Pirellis on the 991s and Michelin is much better all around.
Put the Pirellis on my 2018 CX5 last year and they feel better than the stock Toyos. Went with them over the cross climate bc I live in SoCal where it’s mostly sunny and definitely no snow. I feel like it’s quieter too and they’ve been holding up well, I commute about 40 miles per day.
I got just over 3 yrs, 32k miles on the Dunlop. Replaced with Michelin Primacy. I’m happy w them and the road noise is so much quieter.
Wait what’s wrong with the Michelin 4s ????
The pilot sports are terrible. I burned through my set in 11000 miles.
