I recently bought a set of the "discount" special deal Michelin tires for the wife's car and the part number and SKU were identical to the ones I could buy at Discount Tire, Tire Rack, Firestone, or any other tire installer.
Owner reviews for tires
I had Yoko yk580's on these wheels and when I changed to goodyear eagle f1 asymmetric all seasons (pretty light tires) that made a huge difference!!!
I have purchased 2 complete sets of bridgestone RE-11's from Costco and 3 complete sets of Michelin Pilot Super Sports. If they are using inferior tires I have no idea how orgasmtastic real Super Sports would be because they are hands down the best street tires I've ever had.
I have a set of Pilot Sport A/S 3s from Costco and have detected no cost cutting. They are awesome.
I fitted Nokian Hakkapeliitta on it last winter and was very pleased with them.
I am running Goodyear Eagle F1 Assymetric 2 on 2011 CC
I was running OEM Continental Conti-seal Pro-contact and was not very happy with price. Went through two sets and had issues with road wear and durability (slightest potholes wreck the sidewalls) so I decided to get a set of the Continental ProContact Extreme DWS. I got a great deal on them w/ a 70 rebate to boot. I find them far superior so far. Great dry/wet traction. Minimal road noise. I had them paired with a new set of Niche Targa 18's... hit a pothole in the first week (cant tell you how freaked out I was at impact!) but they kept going just fine. No sidewall damage, no bent wheel (compared to OEM wheel). Cant tell about winter though as I run winter wheel setup. I would recommend you check them out.
I'm running Pirelli PZero Corsa System and enjoy them
My current car, a 1991 BMW 318is, I got it with dry-rotting tires. Noticeable grip issues with them. I quickly got them changed to the best all-season option I found, which was the Michelin Pilot Exalto A/S.
Ordered a set of Michelin Primacy's to replace the junk Hancooks VW put on the car.
