Have Michelins on it now and it rides great, and the idle has always been slightly rough since new. I have the basic engine and still uses no oil.
But it\u2019s spacious, good gas, and with Michelin sport tires, it rides like a dream. Seriously, upgrading the tires on the seltos makes the car mesmerizing. Almost hitting 60k on it.
I’m a KO2 guy though. Off-road performance is unreal. The 10-ply are nearly indestructible. They drive great and mine have always stayed quiet(I know other people haven’t had that experience).
Downside of a KO2 10 ply is they are heavy and sap fuel economy.
Replaced the OEM Michelin Primacy XCs at 55k miles. They were down to ~1-2/32nds but still perfectly smooth and quiet. Very pleased with Michelin.
KO2s for me have been excellent. They are quieter than the stock Goodyears for me, ride a little better and a ton more capable. Plus after 20k miles they aren’t showing any wear and only down 1/32nd so by that math they’re going to last a very long time.
I took a 1mpg hit going to them but that’s expected.
I got the Michelin's earlier this year and have been extremely happy with them. They do lack that aggressive look some want but if you want ride comfort and highway driving these have to be top of list. I believe they're winter rated and all reviews I watched said rain performance was near top for category.
I have been running the Michelin tires for years. Long ago I drove on the set of Michelins till the steel belts were coming out the sides, may pop style. They never did go flat and friends would joke about getting behind me at night. That they could tell it was me because there were sparks coming from the tires. Replaced a set on a Sport Trac I had on since 2002 a couple years ago. They still had tread, it was just that dry rot settled in around the rims. Was cracked so bad that I could put my fingers into the cracks. Wife pestered me so bad that I had to replace them.
Bfg KO2s did well for the 4 years I've had them and we had the freezes with iced roads the last 2 years.
Switching this week from Kumho Ecsta PS91 on 20" Induction wheels to Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 4 on 18" RTX Spider wheels. Will search for a phone app to plot accelerometer output and do a tit-for-tat comparison on a couple of bad local roads.
Just swapped out the 22” contisport 6s on my 2023 Model X Plaid for Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4s and they ride noticeably harsher but most importantly they are damn noisy in comparison.
