Tires MICHELIN or Continental

I've been Michelin only for a while now, they work really well with my front-heavy car all year, better feel and linear fade than any other tire I've used. Unfortunately front heavy and spirited driving make for quick wear even on xl tires, so I guess be prepared for that.

We put Defenders on a 2013 Mazda3 and they’re great.

I have these on my Porsche for my normal driving. I’ve switched to other brands, but always come back to these. They wear well and give nice grip. They can ride a bit harsh around the city but, the sidewall is pretty small.

We just put the CONTINENTAL - TrueContact Tour 54 on our car (22 bolt euv) and we haven't noticed any loss of range and they've been great so far.

For better piece of mind, I also recommend Continental DWS06+. 3 years and close to 40K miles on them in my 370Z, they're just now at 5/32 of tread.

Had a bad experience with the original dws so I’ve been Michelin ever since. The pilot sport AS are the best all seasons I’ve ever owned.

I have Michelin Cross Climate 2 on both my midsized sedan Front Driver and our AWD Mazda CX-9 SUV and we are utterly safe and quiet and happy but we're not hitting tracks or corners at 0.8 G. My #1 priority is WET STOPPING. Where I live we get very little snow but they're said to handle it well also. They're quiet and smooth with solid steering feedback. And plenty of dry handling capabilities

Had these on my car and definitely worth the premium. Just switched over to crossclimate2 though bc I moved to a snowier climate and already miss the PSAS4

I'd even recently done the timing belt and it had 2 sets of wheels with Continental tires.

I had particularly bad luck with Continentals on a couple of cars. Buddy (who had a similar experience) and I came up with a comparison: take one of those nice Staedler erasers and draaaag it on pavement, you won't go 50' before your knuckles get road rash. I'm a big Michelin fan, never had any trouble with those on any of my cars.
