This isn’t true and I’ve had much better experiences with non Tesla Michelin pilot sport 4 all seasons with longevity increasing to twice as long as the hankook ions Tesla gives you and range being the same.
I just got some Sumitomos replaced with about 40,000 mi on them which probably still had 20 to go and were still gripping great but just a little bit noisy. They are the parents company of Falken. They are a great brand as far as longevity and grip. I'm currently using Laufenn which are a sub brand of Hankook which cost me under $90 a corner and I am so pleased that I'm considering putting them on my second car. This mid-tier brand has been just as if not more pleasant in the realm of noise and on center road feel at speed than Michelin Defenders I had just a month ago on a car we sold. My Laufenns will probably have only half of the tread life of the Michelins I used to have, but at only half the price and the feel on the road is identical but I'm sure the performance is a little bit less. We do have close to bottom tier on a car that is new to us which is a Douglas brand and it'll be good for the next year but it is an unpleasant tire. It's loud and doesn't feel like it tracks well. But it does grip well enough to push the replacement date out a year since they were manufactured this year.
My experiences with Michelin have been great. They last well enough to make the higher initial price well worth it. They work quite well in the wet, which is when you especially need them.
Michelin cross climate all season work well. I read on them, supposed to work nearly as well as a winter tire.
Michelin Xice are amazing winter tires, and unlike blizzaks (almost as good when new), the michelins are still great in the snow and ice near their end of life.
Highly recommend all weather tires. I used to have the Cross Climate 2 which where excellent and honestly comparable to winter tires. My dad still uses the Firestone Weathergrip, also drives really well in the snow.
Pick from something like Michelin cross climate or Nokian WRG5. They will preform far better than an all season in winter but still useable in hot summer.
Great tires in Rain and snow. I live in the northeast and go to school in the Midwest. Served me through deep snow, Floods, unpaved freeways, and blizzards on my front wheel drive car. Absolutely love them. Only downside is slightly lower mpg by 1-2 just up the pressure a little.
We got a lot of refunds for Michelin primacy tires with foam separation, maybe Pirelli will give you your money back too.
Those are def 2015-16. Dry rot between the tread. I wouldn\u2019t run these.. I just replaced these exact same tires for this reason.
