I just purchased last week, went with the pilot Sport a/s 3 +. I was also looking at the Conti DWS06. The have better reviews for snow driving. Figured I will drive my SUV when it snows, so went with the better performance. Seem pretty good so far, only about 50 miles in though.
I just got Michelin Pilot Sport 4S on my 19 Santiago wheels and I really like them, amazing grip both on wet and dry, would recommend them!
Currently i have Stock tires on my Tiguan but im looking to put Michelin Premier LTX on it i have that on my old car it reduce road noise a little and its great on wet i was going 80mph on my old cars on pouring rain.
- By 2006, Michelin was vastly superior to Bridgestone in wet weather conditions in general.
Today I was able to return the Bridgestone Alenzas and have a different shop set me up with Pirelli Scorpion Verde 235/55/R18 All Season Plus tires and..... AWESOME. These tires are big feeling and grippy, quiet at highway speeds, AND the car is so much more responsive. I can;t compare to tires that I have not tried on this car, but these are a major upgrade from the Continentals that came stock and a very awesome place to be.
I just replaced my Dunlops that came with my 2015 GT after 40k miles about a few weeks ago. I got the Michelin tires after doing my own research, and I'm pretty happy that I did. I'm in my car roughly two hours a day commuting to work, and I think they grip better and are noticeably quieter than the OEMs.
The michelins are better than the dunlops in every other way. I have 25k on mine and rotate them every 7k ish. Each with an oil change.
Ours will be getting Michelin Premiers (have great wet traction) in the next year or so as the OEM Continentals are just okay.
Thursday was not a good day for one of my Pirelli Winter Sottozero 3 tires. On the way to work a pothole got my front right side tire...When I got home I notice a nick in the rim, but not the damage to the tire...Called Tirerack, since I have the road hazard coverage and filed a claim.
Similar story: a lovely pothole seemingly gave me a flat (felt really jarring) on one of my Pirelli Sottozero 3s. Was flat within 10 minutes...Turns out the pothole actually cracked the rim (which caused the flat) and then the short time I drove on it mostly flat, had ruined the sidewall on the tire as well.
