Tires MICHELIN or BRIDGESTONE

i run Michelin lattitudes after going through the OEM GY s at 30K miles.

I’ve got Bridgestone Blizzaks on mine and absolutely love them.

Normally I'd say to stick with Bridgestone Blizzak, Pirelli Sottozero 3, Michellin X-Ice 3, or Continental WinterContact Si's... But $200 for a slightly used set on wheels that fit your car? Can't really go wrong there.

Used a higher quality tyre last time : Michelin Alpine 5...

I had used cheap winters before but you really do notice the difference in quality, grip etc

It's not as great in ice, but I think Michelin x-ice and Blizzak tires are better for that.

Further to the Xice3 awesomeness. I drove through 50 km of super-twisty tight mountain road this weekend and came across a BMW 5-series on wide tires that would sprint off on the straights then I'd catch him in the twisties then he'd take off on the straights (rinse and repeat)... Anyway, mixed dry/damp pavement at about 10 \u00b0C and the Xice3s had grip to spare in corners.

I have the Michelin PA4's for my R, they are great all around in the winter especially in the dry, X Ice3 were better on ice and packed snow though.

I ran the Xice3 in some pretty severe snow this past winter. One day in particular was a big snowstorm... I took every gnarly/hilly minor road I could find... and got home with no drama and some quality hooning. Those tires are magic.

I also went with the Michelin Xice3. They are fairly decent. No noticible difference to road noise compared to my all seasons. Similar fuel efficiency doing similar driving.

Buy some Michelins and be happy.
