Tires MICHELIN or COMFORSER

I don’t own a Tesla (yet) but I am huge fan of the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S on my Audi S3. I run them year round on Florida and have virtually unlimited grip in dry and rain. Great tires. Should last about 30k miles.

Anecdotal but I originally had the 18" aero wheels on my Model 3 and installed 19" Michelin Pilot Sport 4S and wow what a difference on the curvy roads. It grips the road like glue. Lot of fun.

I’ve had the cross climates on my LR AWD model 3 for a month now. Here are some comments on them (with no winter testing obv) now that I’ve had them 900 miles. I live in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

- Sound: they are definitely louder than stock 18” at low speeds (<35 mph). Seriously they sound like all terrains with windows down, but no complaints at higher speeds. Given how bad the stock Michelin’s are in the winter; I won’t complain!

- ride: yea they’re comfy :)

- handling: They feel good around town but I haven’t pushed them yet. Wet performance was great, the car felt steady as a rock in downpour rain.

Efficiency: this is hard to get an ideas of just yet. Average since tire install is 248 Wh/mi since install. I went on a mini Colorado road trip he first weekend I had them. The car was getting worse efficiency than predicted (used about 5% more than predicted), but it was also 90 degrees out with my mom and my Airedale Terrier that isn’t happy unless the a/c is set to 65 or below. I don’t have the data to really make a fair comparison.

Summary: worth getting if you’re in a mixed climate that gets some snow and you can put up with a little more noise and a little less efficiency.

I now have 18" wheels and tires to replace the base car's 17" and that was all that was needed, good Michelins as well.

They're expensive but Michelin Pilot Super Sports are the best damn tires. They're grippy, quiet and last a long time for summer tires.

The PS4S is the best tire I’ve ran so far. Everything just clicks. Good wear (I rotate every 3k), quiet, good sidewalk stiffness but very compliant for a daily driver, good feedback and gradual breakaway at the limit. I really really really like these and frankly they’re worth the premium.

600 miles on these cheap communist tires and they don't suck. Traction is almost as good as the michelin defenders I had previously. Braking distance is decent. Low road noise. The ride was a little bumpy at first but they smoothed out after a few hundred miles.

With the crappy factory Continentals we immediately regretted not having 4-Motion as the traction wasn\u2019t the best in the wet or dusty (first wet) conditions. However, after changing to Michelin PS4 SUV tires we have found a new love for her.

I have PS4 (not S) AO Audi OEMs on the A4 and they are amazing. At 26k I'm about ready for a new set.

In trying to cure my vibration issue, I put on TOTL Michelin MXM4 Primacy's. They have been ok...actually, they've been somewhat of a disappointment...mostly because they're so much more expensive than other rubber. You sorta expect amazing results. They're pretty good but not any quieter than the old Conti's. They're really loud on sharp impacts (expansion joints, etc.) and seem to be very sensitive to different road surfaces. Other than that, they're good tires...just not for the price you pay.
