Tires MICHELIN or DUNLOP

Among the low-cost good ones; Vredestein. Now I stick to Michelin (bought various X-Ice2/3/PA3) as I like that they won't feel like winter tires.

I have Michelin Ice-Xes on my GTI and they do a great job.

Continental 860+ I think has been the best reviewed winter tire in EU for several years now. I drive Dunlop, because the Continentals were out of stock.

Just got Cross Climate 2’s from Costco yesterday. I put about 60 miles on today and I love them! Great smooth ride and I feel like they really grip the road.

Never cheap out on tires. I just ordered Pilot Aplin Pa4's on the stock size for my turbo they were $266 i believe on PMCtire.com (which I find to be the best online tire shop here in Canada. Free shipping!). You get what you pay for generally for tires.

I did the same thing with mine about 1.5 years ago. I went to America’s Tire and they called Michelin and did the discount. Went with Michelin Crossclimates on mine. Solid tires!

The CrossClimate2 is nice for snow, but they come with a bit more noise than their all weather tires. I use them as winter only tires.

The Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4’s are the best all season tires they have right now. Great in summer and snow but pricey.

guys at the tire shop i go to said that you get good value for money with dunlop tires. they’re high quality but cost less than bridgestone or michelin. i’ve not noticed much of a difference so far as compared to michelin.

Initially I thought it was the OE Pirelli. I replaced them with Michelins and had the same terrible road noise and handling.
