Tires MICHELIN or DUNLOP

I ran Alpin 4s and 5s on my F80. Upstate NY, drove through some pretty sketchy road conditions completely fine

I used Michelins X-Ice snow tires on my F80. Highly recommended.

Only have experience with the Michelins but i will say they had great performance throughout the life of the tire

I went Michelin AS4, and they hold their performance at a big temp and condition range

I ditched the run flats and switched to Michelin cross climate 2, and that improved the ride quality significantly over stock.

If you deal with snow and don't want dedicated snow tires the CrossClimate2 is a great choice. I put them on last month and took a slight range hit but they have done great in a couple storms as well as longer trips to warmer climates.

They really are amazing tires.

I have the cc2s on my highlander and camry. They get about 45k miles on them. I have driven them on gravel and grass fields. Where they excel in my opinion is when you hit a deep puddle unexpectedly at high speeds. You don't lose control. Also, very good on slushy/icey roads and in the rain.

I have these on my Q5 and while I like them and they are grippy, I don’t notice any difference in road noise from the stock tires.

Both cars have Michelin X-Ice tires. Drives me nuts. I figured it has to be something with tire weight or road grip or something, but it doesn't seem widespread. I'd love any troubleshooting tips or thoughts, its scary and becoming one of my only personal gripes with the cars.
