I loved the Conti viking 7's on my rav4 so much, I sold the Xi3's on my Prius Prime and switched to Contis as well. 225/45/17 mounted on 17x7. They seem to wear about as well as the Michelins but they grip much better in all weather conditions, are quieter than the already very quiet Xi3, and the handling is firmer.
I went with 205/50R-17 Michelin X-Ice Xi3 SL (from original 225 on 18\") for winter driving on my GTI. Motivation was keeping circumference the same. Have been happy with Michlins in North East.
Continental extreme contact DWS are what I've had in my RS for three years for non summer seasonal driving. They are excellent.
I drove on a set of Michelin X-Ice 3s during my time in Detroit. We didn’t get tons of snow, but plenty of ice and they held up well.
Tire wise it came with Continental Extreme Contact DWS I ran last year and through winter. I now have Falken RT615K+ on but will change as the cold approaches.
Same for tires. Michelins are the premium tires to buy. Bfgoodrich is great not as good but made by Michelin. Uniroyal (which makes tiger paws that some people loathe) is a cheap tire made by Michelin.
I have them on my Golf Alltrack and like them. I replaced the factory Continental ProContact TX tires. They are quieter then the Conti's. I bought them because I feel they are the perfect tire for the PNW. They are good in the rain, dry, light snow, dirt roads.
I took advantage of the 4th of July sales and ditched the stock Pirellis for Michelin Sport 4S because I’m going for a road trip along Big Sur and through the Redwoods (Hated the Pirellis).
I have Ecopias as OEM rolling @ 99. My winters (GTA) are Michelin X-Ice Xi3 99T @ 215-65-17.
There were long sections of I-90 especially through Washington that were loud as f***. I don’t know if it’s damage due to chains or what, but I had to endure hours of this nonsense. Maybe it was my tires? They are Michelin Pilot Super Sports in 235/40R18 inflated up to 39 psi for the extra load. They’re silent on most other roads though.
