Tires MICHELIN or Shinko
Michelin - I've had the Pilot Super Sport and Pilot AS4+. They're definitely not cheap, but hands down superior to the Continental equivalent. The AS4+ is almost grippy enough to compete with the Conti summer tire, while also being quieter and producing slightly higher gas mileage.
I've rocked Michelin AS4 (and their predecessor) for years in my cars...Zero issues and only switched to the Continental just to try something different...the performance they can now get out of all season tires is pretty impressive.
As much as I love the Continental DWS 06+, I needed to purchase a set of Michelin Cross Climate 2 tires. The Continental DWS 06+ were fine. I got by the Winter without problems. There were only 3 times that I felt that I could use a more Winter like tire.
Michelin pilot sport as are the best all season tire out there, hence why you see them on supercars and hypercars.
But the best set I have ever owned was a set of Michelin Defenders. Smooth and you always felt glued to the road.
Michelin defender 2s here's awesome tire performs well in heavy ass rain
I have Michelin Defenders on my ‘17 Jetta and they’re great.
Really liking the road 6's, although I'm not doing 10% off-road. These have been fine in light gravel fwiw.
They were okay for me, definitely not great (Southwestern PA) but I upgraded to Michelin Cross Climate2’s and definitely recommend them.
I am about to sell my Michelin ice x snows. I do not like them. They slide more then they should.
