Running Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 4's -225/45 r17. Over a year on them in pothole Ohio. No problems whatsoever, Even with hitting the odd pothole directly.
Just switched from the DWS to the MPSAS4 and the Michelin is by far the more performance oriented all season tire.
Oh then 1000% get Michelin pilot sport a/s 3+ not even a debate. They ARE sports car tires, handling is off the chain, they have stupid long mileage warranty, they are phenomenal in the rain, and they are fantastic in light snow (say 3" or less) and light ice. But they are definitely dead silent.
I run Michelin Premier A/S and I’ve really enjoyed them. I also run my tire a little bit taller and more narrow than factory. I like the taller sidewall for ride comfort.
I popped a tire on the lip of one of California's ubiquitous ~~potholes~~ sink holes. If I ever buy another "no spare" car it better have airless tires like the [Michelin uptis](https://michelinmedia.com/michelin-uptis/) on it standard.
The AS Pilot Sport 4’s (not to get confused with Pilot Sport 4S) are are almost up to par with Michelin X-Ice in the snow and are amazing in dry conditions.
Michelin tires are a softer rubber than Bridgestone tires. This means that Michelin tires will give you a slightly better grip on the road, but the trade off is tire life/wear.
Michellines have always been better, but you always want to look at reviews for your specific tire.
I'm currently running Michelin Premieres on my Jetta. They are great tires, especially in the wet, but don't get near the longevity that they claim. I've put TrueContacts on our old Forester, and was very happy with them. I've also had General Altimax HP's on the Jetta (same category tire), and was happy with those as well. Generals are a great budget tire. They were very quiet, and I'll echo the comment that they feel squirmy at first until all the casing oil gets out of them.
I swear by myselfthat those tires SUCK!!! Consider that they came stock on my gsr wen it was stock and torqueless and well come rain, come slipping on a normal turn with a car that didn't produce any torque below 5k rpms as opposed to a gti below 2k rpm..
