Tires MICHELIN or TIGAR
If you run 17 inch, go for 215/45R17. Get the Michelin Pilot sport 4s or 5, Goodyear Eagle F1 Asym 6, or Conti Sportcontact 7/extremecontact (depends if you're in EU or US). Those are the best allround tires you can get. 215/45 offers a bit more contact and a bit more comfort
I swapped my 22" Pirelli Scorpions with the 22" Michelin Defender MS/2 115H. The ride is much more supple, and they cost far less than the Scorpions, while the efficiency is nearly the same (within .14 kwh/mi).
Michelin Pilot Sport as4 or whatever the current version is. Darn near summer tire grip but with all the benefits of an All Season. And they still manage to have a tread life mileage guarantee.... I've been through many a set.
put on pilot sport 4s now.
Michelin PS AS4 handle much better & can take light snow as well. Getting noise complaints on CC2 as they wear plus my Costco installer tells me they throw rocks.
I recently bought 17" wheels/tires from Tirerack (Michelins) and they feel great on my 2024 GTI Autobahn. I really don't like the stock 19" wheels.
I've got them on my CX-5 for about a year and a half now.
I've driven them in hot Cali Summers to Midwest winters. Have handled absolutely amazingly and are much quieter than the original tires.
Can't recommend them enough.
Michelin x ice have been great for me. On my second set.
I got 19's with cc2's on MYP I get MAYBE a hair better efficiency over the the 21 ubwrturbines. They also have a decent amount of annoying whirring/road noise :/ but winter performance should be great.
I got a set of winter tires from them, at first they were perfect but 3 of them lost the shape (they were not perfectly round) just after 1 year and 30k KM and car started shaking progressively. They were on the car all the time and actively driven on. So it wasn't user error, the car did not sit in the same place more than 4-5 days in a row. It was just poor build quality.
