I have them on my MK6 Jetta and they are the best tires I’ve ever had in the rain. NJ winters are no problem for them either. Good luck ????
I’ve exclusively run PS A/S4 on basically all my most recent cars — it’s truly a do it all tire for someone who needs to be able to get somewhere in freezing temperatures but has another car that can do winter duty a bit better. Never thought they were noisy on either my CLK550, BRZ, WRX, CTR, SS 1LE, and now ITS.
I had PS AS3+ on a Focus, do not recommend. Light snow traction was horrible. I had DWS06+ on my 2014 TDI and now also on my 2016 GLI. Do not recommend. Heavy spots in tires. Rotate on time or suffer cupping and road noise like no tomorrow. I had PS AS4 on my TDI after the Conti's and have nothing but praise for them. Quiet, great wet traction, and stuck like velcro in the dry.
I have had the Michelins on the E46 for the past year and have no complaints. They're fairly quiet and grip really well in whatever I've thrown at it so far. Prior to that it was yeeeeeears with the same Conti DWS06. The only thing I can say is that with only a few thousand miles on the Continentals, my mechanic discovered they were de-laminating. The inner sidewall of the driver's rear tire had about a 12" long, 1/2" wide window straight to the cords. I wasn't happy when I saw that, so I switched to Michelin. There was A LOT of tread left, so I was pretty disappointed.
Had some S3 Evo, for 65000kms (2 sets) and really happy about them ! Very quiet (nothing to compare with the stock Michelin), very good handling on dry and wet roads.
40k+ miles on the evo’s. They have been great, and they were a few decibels quieter than the factory Michelins.
I like Michelin defenders. Quiet, good road pattern, excellent grip on snow and ice
Yeah, I got tired of this happening. Went to Michelin's, and I find them to be much better.
All seasons are deceptive. Not *bad* in the snow but you’ll see on most of them “light powder” conditions - meaning anything other than a quick flurry will undermine performance. Get these + snow tires and swap during the winter or get a better tire rated for snow like Michelin Crossclimates or Nokian WR G4s.
I HAVE THEM ON MY CAR AND THEY DO GIVE YOU A CHOPPY RIDE AFTER HAVEING michelin tires for year on my car you can tell the dif.
