Tires MICHELIN or Falken

MICHELIN Tires

Definitely winters for a RWD, I had a RWD 335i with X-Ice 3 and I never had an issue with tires. The only problem I had with snow was my car basically plowing the streets because it was so low.

Pros: no issue with tires
Cons: car plowed streets
Vehicle: BMW

I have Falken FK510s on my car (2008 Si on 18" Wheels) and i like them. I've you they have excellent grip in both wet and dry conditions and noise levels are good to. I like them better then the ventus evo 12's that came on my car when i got it. It's a very good tire for the money, I definitely recommend them.

Pros: excellent grip, good noise
Vehicle: Honda Civic

I've owned both. The Evo is okay, but terrible in the wet and a little noisy. The 510 is a shockingly good tire for Falken. I definitely recommend those.

Pros: shockingly good tire
Cons: terrible in the wet

I would suggest Michelin Defenders, my JSW had them on for 35,000 miles and look great when I traded the car back to VW.

Pros: look great
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 35000 km

Bought Michellin Pilot Sport 4s for my 06 2.3L (figured why not spend a bit more because you don't really buy tyres often)

I'm very happy with them so far.

Pros: very happy
Vehicle: Mazda

I had Pirelli tires on my car when I first bought it.. Some new all weather performance tires and let’s just say it was quite scary if there was even a little water on the road. I bought Michelin Pilot Super Sport A/S tires and they have been absolutely fantastic. Rain, shine, or snow the grip levels are very high, blow Pirelli out of the water. There have been instances in the snow when I feel the Michelin tires have saved my life. With the Pirellis, I would not even consider taking the car out in the snow. I drive a Mustang GT.

Pros: high grip levels, great performance
Cons: scary in wet conditions

Over the last 20 years I\u2019ve liked Michelin the most for normal daily driving, they tend to be pricier than comparable brands but when you factor in balance, noise, traction, and wear I\u2019d say I prefer them.

Pros: balance, noise, traction, wear
Cons: pricier than comparable brands

They're not great but they are somewhat better than the Michelin MXV4 Plus tires that came with my Passat. I had HX MXM4's on 17\" Long Beaches from my 1.8T Jetta that I have been using on my TDI. Now that they've worn out, I've just replaced them with Bridgestone Potenza RE050A Pole Positions. These should give me the kind of cornering and wet weather grip the Michelins lacked.

Cons: lacked cornering, lacked wet grip

I swear, this is the worst tire I have ever encountered in my entire life. Sure it rides smooth and soft, and makes almost no noise whatsoever, but is SUCKS as a tire! The tire gives up traction all the time. It totally destroys my confidence when driving my 2003 GTI 1.8T Sport.

Pros: rides smooth, makes no noise
Cons: gives up traction
