Tires MICHELIN or Shinko
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.
I run Michelin Pilot A/S3+ tires on my Toyota 86. I picked up a nail somewhere between Sacramento and Long Beach and the only reason why I knew about it was because I parked in such a way that the porter called it out when I got to the Queen Mary. The tire never deflated or showed signs of air loss. I still had it replaced, but the fact that the tire was safe enough to get me a replacement spoke volumes.
BFGoodrich run me $220 a tire. Crap traction dry, horrible wet. Same price Michellin Pilot Sport AS4 work better wet than the Goodrich dry.
These tires are great in you live in bad weather state. Drive a lot of very bad weather. They probably louder. More comfortable ride.
Yep, these tires are *amazing* in the snow, and great the rest of the time, too.
Amazing tire, and great treadlife compared to the Michelins. Just not as sticky for corners :/
I also have had bad experiences with conti tires both on my 2012 CC and my 23 Arteon. In both which I've owned since new the michelin pilot sports have been phenomenal.
I had both road 6 and rosso 4 on my zx6r and i noticed a small difference between the two in terms of grip riding hard through curves the road6 felt good, the rosso only slightly better . Not really enough for me to justify getting rosso 4 again for now.
They perform okay but feel quite harsh and rough. By all accounts michelin pilot sport 4s are the way to go
I hated my pilots on my r3 they didn’t have much confidence to them did a lot of sliding, changed to Pirelli Diablo ll and never looked back
