Tires MICHELIN or Continental

MICHELIN Tires

I have Michelin Super Sports on one of my cars and Continental GXs on my other, faster car, and I vastly prefer the Michelins.

Pros: vastly prefer the Michelins

Continental Tires

Most people conclude that Grand Prix are the best mix of puncture resistance, weight, grip and speed to sort of be the industry standard.

Pros: best mix of features

I run Nitto 555 G2's during all but winter, and this year I went with Pilot Sport A/S3+ all-seasons (due to frequent driving in mild snow during work trips) and I'm quite happy with them.

Pros: quite happy
Vehicle: Ford Crown Victoria I

I daily Michelin Pilot Super Sports on my Focus SVT. They are so worth it. Yeah they wear out after 10-12k miles but they have like a 30k or 40k mile warranty so I get a new set of PSS's every year for like $150.

You can drive them in the rain like it isn't raining at all.

Pros: worth it, good warranty
Cons: wears out quickly
Vehicle: Ford Focus
Mileage: 11000 km

Sport Cup 2's are great tires, I have them on my RS. If I could do-over though, i would go with PS4S. Sure, they "technically" aren't as fast around a track, but for the 99.9% of street miles you put on them they are much more livable on a daily driver.

Pros: great tires
Cons: not fast on track
Vehicle: Ford

A good set of PS4s tires is more than enough for a daily. You wont have problems with rain or dry traction.

Pros: good rain, dry traction
Vehicle: BMW

I am running X Ice3 on the stock Austin wheels for the second winter now and have had no problems in Western PA. We don't get much snow per se, but the car feels confident in snow and ice, in particular stopping and turning.

Pros: car feels confident
Vehicle: Volkswagen

I put on a full set of Michelin XIce3 P205/55R16 with steel rims just before the first big snow hit and I'm glad I did. There's nothing like having a proper set of winter tires.

Pros: proper set of winter tires
Vehicle: Volkswagen

I'm running 235 Michelin PS2's on my Jetta VRT w/ 17x8 ASA AR1's. I've been spinning like mad in 1st and 2nd at only 10 psi lately, but it's been in the 30's for forever. 3rd has been gripping perfect at 18 psi though.

Pros: 3rd gripping perfect
Cons: spinning in 1st and 2nd
