Tires MICHELIN or Continental

MICHELIN Tires

Michelin Pilot Street 2 at ~10k now. Rear is close to getting replaced but there's still some life left. Sunny or stormy, I lean it just the same and I've never felt it losing grip. No problem going over potholes at Quirino.

Pros: never felt losing grip
Cons: Rear close to replaced
Mileage: 10000 km

Yes, tried mine today on 4 inches of snow and they are incredible. I've never felt this safe on snow and I've been driving in the Midwest for 26 years. I'll buy this line for life if they last as long as they're supposed to

Pros: incredible on snow

I just got a set of Michelin city grip 2 tires 120/70 on both front and rear. So far they grip way better than stock on wet and dry pavement. The wider tires make the handling feel way more sluggish though.

Pros: grip way better
Cons: sluggish handling

I've had multiple sets of Continental CrossContact LX25 tires over the years and get by just fine every winter. I'm in Columbus though.

Pros: get by just fine

Continental Gatorskins will prevent flats, but they are the least fun tires to ride. Rolling resistance is terrible.

Pros: prevent flats
Cons: terrible rolling resistance

This looks like to be a Michelin PS 3 or 4. If my guess is correct, these are sport tire which means soft rubber compound, and because of that they degrade (harden) fast. From experience, with normal use, they are good for 2-3 years of driving, then they get horribly bad (hard). Above 4 years they become hard like hockey pucks - the rubber looks shiny with lots of micro cracking and they are (from experience) deadly in the rain. So, judging from the picture one (i see micro cracking) and the fact they are 5 years old: They are gone. Tread depth is irrelevant now. They are so hard that you cant wear them down not even in 100.000km. Btw. about 6-7mm is the tread depth when these (Michelin PS) tires are new.

Pros: good for 2-3 years
Cons: degrade fast, harden quickly, deadly in rain, micro cracking
