I've had Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ on my R since late April. Very happy with their street performance. I did it as a compromise from having to keep a set of dedicated winters around.
Owner reviews for tires
I just purchased last week, went with the pilot Sport a/s 3 +. I was also looking at the Conti DWS06. The have better reviews for snow driving. Figured I will drive my SUV when it snows, so went with the better performance. Seem pretty good so far, only about 50 miles in though.
My trailer had some junk "D" load rated tires that I replaced with "E" load rated Goodyear's and I saw improvement in handling and fuel economy.
The tires were solid. Seemed to have traction in the snow, but were pretty slippery on the dry salted roads. Ride quality/road noise isn't bad at all, even at high(er than i should've been going) speeds.
I just got Michelin Pilot Sport 4S on my 19 Santiago wheels and I really like them, amazing grip both on wet and dry, would recommend them!
Wrapped in Kumho Ecsta V720 tires, have less than 5000 miles on them
Monday night, I put Cooper CS3's on the front and balanced the garbage West Lakes that are on the rear. All 4 were surprisingly round and none of the rims bent. I can now get around corners faster dry and wet, and can oversteer the car pretty easily when near the limit.
I had KO2's on my JK Wrangler and they were great. I had the e rated ones, so they were stiffer than the factory Bridgestone DD's but no noisier with the top on or off. I found Duratrac's get noisier as they wear, the BFG's didn't.
My Dunlop wintersport 3ds have 4 seasons on them right now, this will be their last. they are not as good as they were new, but they are decent and predictable.
Don't get Nexen. I got 2 for my SiLs car and they started to come apart in less than a year, side wall. Looked online and others had the same issue. When I contacted Nexen they did not seem to care.
