Tires MICHELIN or YOKOHAMA
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.
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.
Michelin, top tier premium tire. You get what you pay for.
I have Michelin CrossClimates2 on **awd**. If we get a surprise early storm they are.....fine. On true ice they can't get up/down a steep driveway. So I'd rather not test them braking on ice either (luckily never had this situation come up).
Both cars have Michelin X-Ice tires. Drives me nuts. I figured it has to be something with tire weight or road grip or something, but it doesn't seem widespread. I'd love any troubleshooting tips or thoughts, its scary and becoming one of my only personal gripes with the cars.
