Tires MICHELIN or Continental

I have the Michellin Defender LTX. Good grip, but definitely a better tire than my west lakes I had before.

For my 2011 Element AWD, switched from the original Goodyears to Continental Control Contact in 235/65/16 (calculated for appropriate aspect ratio). No rubbing in the wheel wells. Better ride and traction.

I just traded in those Accords this month for '22 Sport 2.0T's that came stock with Michelin Primacy MXM4. Night and day difference on the road noise and it absolutely gives it a more comfortable ride.

I feel like a broken record with this one, but I highly recommend the Michelin PS4S or PS4AS. They made my accord feel a whole lot more connected to the road, and the All Seasons handle Wisconsin winters just fine.

If you can afford it, Michelin is worth it in the long run. They’re the only tire I know that lasts longer than the warranty period based on Consumer Reports.

I was going to replace with the same tire but decided to try the Michelin AS4. I would observe the following :

Dry grip - Michelin is better feel and grip around corners

Wet grip - not scientific but think the DWS is marginally better

Road feel / noise / ride quality - I like the Michelins slightly better

I have the SL4 with the the 51’s and gp5000 32c”s. I highly recommended, I’m glad i spent the extra for pro’s and I’m also glad I went with the deep rims instead of the 37’s. It’s plenty fast and I’m really pleased with the setup.

This year has been crazy, I’m into three sets of Michelins 2xPS4S on the 981 and 911 plus a set of PSS on the BMW

I bought 2 new front tires a year ago. I got the Michelin Pilot sport pros that people recommend on this sub reddit.

They seem fine

my conti-extreme got quite loud after they had worn a bit, although they were badly cupped.
