Tires MICHELIN or Continental

Only change I have made is putting on Michelin Pilot 4 all weather tires 235/40/19s on the stock wheels. A little more sidewall for a better ride and no problem with rubbing. My only gripe is the turbo lag but once it kicks in it does just fine.

I love my CC2s, got them in December and have had them on my wife’s MDX for 3 years. The wet performance is very impressive.

We put the CC2’s on it’s so much better than the stock. In the north east for the winters and it has been great in the snow this season. Road noise is fine and ride comfort is fine, but noticeably better in all aspects

In my experience, which has been all heavier “horsepower” cars in the 3400-3800lb range, the best all seasons were Continental Extreme Contact DWS06. No chunking, but they do feather at the edges.

Michelin—always worth the $$…keeps braking/traction through wear pattern better than any other tire

The Corvette school at NCM Motorsport Park swaps out their Z51s to the AS4 Michelins after the stock PS4s wear out for their fleet. They claim they perform well and my experience in 20 minutes of very spirited lapping they did great, I wasn’t limited by traction issues at all.

Love the tires so far, but can I expect to immediately destroy these on track too? Any possibility of taking it easier and leaving a track day with plenty of tread and not chunked up tires?

I've got Continental Viking Contact 7's on my AWD M3 and they're also fantastic.

Now my experience with the ECS02s vs my typical 200tw Yoko AD09s is they do not have the same ability to grip and I have to brake earlier and carry less speed into the apexes or they slip/push a bit.

I've got to be the only person on earth that didn't like these tires. Worst traction I've ever had. Maybe I got a bad set? They were load range E and wore like iron, I was kinda upset I couldn't justify replacing them with something else.
