Tires MICHELIN or DEXTER

I have these on my 4runner (265/70/17), I bought it with them on there so I'm not sure the exact mileage, but im happy with them. Work good on my red clay dirt road when it's rained.

I have some Michelin Defenders TH on my Lexus, they're whisper quiet. They leave some to be desired in wet/snow traction.

I went to PS4S' five years ago and will never go back.

Pro: Softer ride, more quiet and cheaper.

Spend a few more bucks and get Michelin. They will last longer and you’ll have a better ride the whole time. It’s worth the extra few bucks.

Defender 2 is excellent and reasonably priced

I use Michelin 235 40 18 4S on my MK7 with Neuspeed RSe12 8"x18" and the grip is a tick better than the standard size. This combo is also lighter than the stock wheels and tires...and along with the suspension modifications, it's a difficult subject to try to quantify. I am always concerned with wheel and tire weight...that drives my decision making...if you like the look of a 19" rim, go for it. I think that you will find a larger variable between tire types and widths where ultimate grip is concerned...steering response is in theory better with a lower profile tire, but sidewall construction will also affect steering response with a similar tire size range.

I just put the Pilot Sport 4S tires on my 21 3.3 Sport Prestige and I absolutely love them. I had kuhmos on it before and they were absolutely trash tires compared to these. These new ones are way stiffer and way better performance in turns and just all around feel like a better tire.

Michelin Cross Climate 2's unless off roading.

They were okay for me, definitely not great (Southwestern PA) but I upgraded to Michelin Cross Climate2’s and definitely recommend them.

I had some on my LR4 and they were completely destroyed after 15k miles. Thankfully they had a 60k mile warranty so Michelin paid for a good portion of the Pirellis that went on next.
