Tires MICHELIN or Continental

I just put a set on my S6 replacing the factory Pirelli's. the Pirelli's were garbage and lasted a whopping 16K miles. The road noise from the Michelin is way quieter and the grip is much better especially on initial turn-in.

Buy the Michelins ASAP. You'll be surprised at how much of a difference you will feel and hear.

Very happy with my X-Ice.

I have Michelin X-Ice 3 s on both a Dodge truck and a Hyundai Accent. They work excellently, although I noticed on the Accent they are not a great rain tire.

I only run Michelins on everything I drive, I've never had issues with the tires, and I figure if the cost of michelins saves me an accident, then they have paid for themselves

Between all of the vehicles I maintain I only run Michelin X-Ice 3 or Bridgestone Blizzak WS80 tires for winters. Worth every penny.

the mechanic that put on my new Continentals reckons I'll get 20,000ks out of them.

For comparison, the tires I use on my bike are Michelin Road 5, which seem to be in sale right now for $180 in my size and last around 8k miles

Original Falkens was not a fan of and car doesn't really see offroad minus some local dirt roads. AS3+ are a great 3 season tire, passable if you live somewhere with light winters but run dedicated snows late Nov-early Apr depending on the year.

Recently changed several factors and noticed a rather significant drop in mpgs.... 1) tune - brought the car to stage 1+ with vwr intake 2) winter blend fuel 3) new Michelin a/s 3 tires I used to have the trip computer averaging 28ish, and now I'm seeing about 23 for highway use at 80mph
