Tires MICHELIN or VITOUR
I ran these on my Mustang when I couldn't get Pilot Sport 4S tires at the time. I liked them. They were grippy and comfortable but did have a softer sidewall than the Michellin.
Tire brand I have always been very satisfied with Michelin Tires for traction, ride and quite ride (little road noise).
Highly recommend Michelin. Ride well, quiet,with 80k warranty.
Pilot Sport All Season 4 is the natural progression of the tire you have toward a car that's more daily-able. They're great. Run them as my summers on my Fiat 124 Abarth. Not quite as grippy as a PS4/PS4S, but with the same good predictable feeling you'd want + less variable handling when cold vs. warm, better wear life, and better performance when temps get a little colder in the fall and winter. It's the same tire design philosophy but in a more practical package that's, imo, better for street use. Great choice if you want to get a bit slideways but also have a very predictable experience.
I switched to them from Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+, which were great tires.
I went up a sidewall size and got 255/45ZR20 (stock is 255/40) to replace my original set on my 2021 Y. I read people saying that they still fit and improved the ride a bit. I always thought ride with the 20” tires was a bit rough. They do fit and the ride did improve a bit.
Edit: forgot to mention I got Michelin Pilot Sport All Season. Only had them 5 months or so but they’ve been great so far. Foamless and a bit louder at first but not too bad and I got used to it quickly. Don’t notice anymore.
ive had 2 teslas , both performance models. first tesla came with michelin ps4 -- second tesla ( 2022) came with pirelli. quickly sold the pirellis for the ps4s.
update: got the michelins and Im happy with my purchase, feels a little slippy on turns but I have mostly all control unless I go faster than usual.
I’ve got the defenders. They get loud over 60 too.
I changed from the OEM tires to Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 4's a few months ago and have been disappointed with them. They do have more grip than the OEM tires but feel really squirrely and "Mushy" while steering, especially when driving more "spiritedly". I miss how stable the car felt with the original tires.
