Michelin CrossClimate2 staggered 20” on my FE. Superb tires. Quiet, smooth, insane levels of grip wet or dry. No loss of range in the winter, haven’t seen warm weather yet to judge summer range. I’m fine with giving up range for performance.
Owner reviews for tires
I run Continental Extreme Contact DWS tires. 50k tire. No complaints.
Fallen FK510s were the closest thing I found to the Primacy but didn’t carry the Primacy’s price tag.
I did have Continental ExtremeContact DSW06's on my ST and they were really good.
Achilles ATR Sport’s were the old model now they have the ACHILLES STREETHAWK. $50 tires super grippy and long lasting
My recommendation is the "other" OEM tire, Hankook's Kinergy series. On my RWD 22, they've lasted 35k miles so far and are still not near replacement. Unlike the Bridgestone's they are solid and you almost never hear a bad word from those that lucked out and got them.
I bought these dextero all season tires 3 years ago. Every year I drive about 35k to 40k miles. I drive even during snow storm and these tires have a very good grip. So far, I don't have any complaints about this brand. It has a 50k mile warranty.
I bought Pirelli Scorpion AS Plus 3’s, squared up at 235/55R/19. They are rated for 60,000 miles, are noticeably quieter than the original Allenzas and ride better too.
Also, after 4,000 miles I have seen no reduction in range/efficiency.
Had these same Michelins on a FWD car. If you never plan to drive on dirt or gravel roads, or in snow ice, they’re probably decent, but not awesome in heavy rain. Consider the mileage rating for Pilot vs other Michelin tires that cost slightly more because the Pilots didn’t last me long.
I am still not impressed with these tires. I'm just about to hit 14k miles on these tires and they are some of the worst tires I've had. Definitely going to replace them before winter. We average 6-8 inches of snow every winter and these tires are like race slicks in the snow.
