Owner reviews for tires

I just replaced my stock tires with Vredestein Quatrac Pro tires (205 55R17 for me). These Dutch made tires seem to be quieter and have a better grip than the Falken OEM.

Yokohama avid on my xse non-premium as well. We just got our first snow here in Maryland, and it performed exceptionally imo.

I currently have General Altimax Arctic, studded, on my 2013. So far they have been great, but we will see how they go in deeper snow.

When the insurance finally ran out and it was time to change tires, I went for a different brand, Hankook all seasons and never had any blow out since then. I have 179k miles on the car and has been replacing it with the same brand since then and not once had a blowout . And I've hit major potholes too.

Michelin premieres perform great in the snow, about as good as winter tires (reviews on tirerack) Turned my prius into a beast in the snow (for a prius).

Got winters and they make a huge difference.

I purchased Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4, from Tirerack, my god they are better than the ExtremeContact DWS tires (which I used for 8-10 years).

I ran them on three cars. They are my favorite Budget tire they stretch well and look good stretched. I have never had them lose air on me. They are a little louder than some tires I think but not by much. I have them on my GTI right now and can't say enough for the price of them.

So I went ahead and purchased a set of Pirelli P Zero. What I am concerned about is that when I asked about the DOT date, the guy at the tire shop told me that the tires were made in the 24th week of 2016.
