Buy the cleanest one with the least deferred maintenance, oh and Michelins, you can't go wrong buying a car with Michelins on it.

I love my extreme contact sport, I drive aggressive and wild at times and it help keep me planted on the road
Honestly for the price, I prefer Continentals. Similar ride quality to Goodyear but at a lower cost.
I drove pretty regularly all winter. It was getting to the point that the stock summer Bridgestones were getting scary in the cold and wet with very little grip. So, in that respect it was a huge improvement in cold weather handling. If we're comparing ideal condition, yeah the winters do not perform nearly as well. The turn in isn't quite as sharp and responsive, there's less steering feedback, and the limits of grip were lower, which was especially noticeable under hard braking. Still, this car is intended to be my primary form of transportation and I didn't want to stop driving it just because it was cold or raining. So, while it was a bit of a handling detriment compared to ideal conditions, it still had plenty of grip for the street and still put a smile on my face every time I got behind the wheel.
I have Michelin Pilot Super Sports 245x45x17 on all corners. Love them! Quite, good handling (I also have Koni Adjustable all around).
I am on my second set of Michelin Energy summer tires from Costco - they are H-rated 175/65-15s made in Germany and meant for the base Mini. They have the BMW star on the sidewall.
So unfortunately my Macan needed new tires...Excellent service, not a single scratch or mark on the wheels, perfectly balanced, on time and as promised, bill had all information including warranty, even to what spec they torqued the wheels bolts, yes, to Porsche specification which is 110 ftlb, tire pressure sport on. I was also very impressed about the friendliness of the staff, they all were knowledgeable, no pressure. Needless to say I may try them again going forward.
The Continental DWS series tires are very popular with this car. I've been running them for around 3 years now and have zero complaints. They are excellent in the rain.
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.
