They are very good tires. I have run them on a GLI, Passat GT, Golf R and two Audi A4’s. They are really good on dry cold pavement. Low road noise. They do very good in snow, rain and bad weather. They do OK in deep snow. They are performance winter, so they will handle very well.
Same for tires. Michelins are the premium tires to buy. Bfgoodrich is great not as good but made by Michelin. Uniroyal (which makes tiger paws that some people loathe) is a cheap tire made by Michelin.
I have those Pirelli’s on my Focus and they are very quiet and pretty comfortable.
I took advantage of the 4th of July sales and ditched the stock Pirellis for Michelin Sport 4S because I’m going for a road trip along Big Sur and through the Redwoods (Hated the Pirellis).
I have Ecopias as OEM rolling @ 99. My winters (GTA) are Michelin X-Ice Xi3 99T @ 215-65-17.
I'm running Neuspeed RSe16s 17x8.0 45mm with 235/45/17s on stock suspension - zero rub, plenty of clearance, wheels almost flush. One thing I found out with tire size and ride quality, the tires themselves matter as much as sizing. I initially put on Bridgestone RE980AS XLs and they were brittle and hard as a rock with the standard suspension. A switch to grand touring Pirelli Cinturato P7 All Season Plus XL made ALL the difference in ride, sacrificing a few tenths of speed on freeway onramps and a bit of capability in the wet. It was worth it.
I have a focus St with Michelin pilot super sports. While the compound sucks when it hits freezing temps, I've had no issues getting around, unless it's super icy.
I haven't been able to gloat anywhere, but I just nabbed a pair of PS4Ss for 149/ea. They really are incredible tires
I have Michelin Xi3's. I can't recommend them if you care about your car's performance at all. If you don't GAF then these are fine. Probably ideal for a Prius. They work fine in snow, the brakes work on ice, and the ride is alright. That's all the praise I can give them.
I have those on my Mustang right now and they have no where near the performance of the outgoing P Zeros.
