Owner reviews for tires

Go with the Kumhos from Tire Rack. I had really good experience with them

First thing going on my project s2k is a fresh set of Michelin Pilot Sport 4s. Things that make constant contact with the ground should not be substituted for a cheaper, inferior replacement.

I have had very good luck with Falken tires on my Mercedes cars. Lots of tread warranty etc Also, some of the BFGoodrich (Owned by Michelin - I think) tires are good.

I got to field test my Cooper Discoverer AT3 4S tires in the snow this weekend. This is a solid A/T tire, and it's one of the quieter ones on pavement. Handling was awesome; ran them at 25 psi and plowed through small drifts ~12\" high with no issues.

I've been using the WR G3's the past few winters and have also been pretty happy with them. This has been mainly suburban Boston driving. That said in the late winter early in 2018 had once instance where I had to drive up a pretty steep snow-covered dirt road with them. I thought as I started up there was maybe a 10% change I would make it up the hill.......powered up with no problem. YMMV

The Michelins Xice are so good I rarely buy anything else. Hardly notice they are on in dry conditions. The big van gets BFG KO2 tires and those pretty much rule as well

Last winter I bought then (then brandnew) Goodyear Assurance WeatherReady tires. They are All-seasons, but have the snowflake on the mountain symbol. They did great in the Mid-Atlantic where we don't get more than 2 days of actual snow but a lot of cold rain, occasional sleet and slush. They did come in handy when we visited the in-laws in Erie PA while they got their 100" of snow at Christmas time.

I just snagged from Craigslist a set of 17" wheels with Blizzaks on them with only 3,500 miles on the set for the ATS for only $425. Will be interesting seeing how the RWD performs with decent snows. I have Altimax Arctics on the BMW - combined with the AWD that car can go through most anything.

In trying to cure my vibration issue, I put on TOTL Michelin MXM4 Primacy's. They have been ok...actually, they've been somewhat of a disappointment...mostly because they're so much more expensive than other rubber. You sorta expect amazing results. They're pretty good but not any quieter than the old Conti's. They're really loud on sharp impacts (expansion joints, etc.) and seem to be very sensitive to different road surfaces. Other than that, they're good tires...just not for the price you pay.

They are trash.
