Tires MICHELIN or Falken

I ran 265/70/17 Wildpeaks on my stock 2018 for years and had no major issues with them. They are a bit heavy and my personal experience was they did not balance the best, but maybe that was addressed with the AT4s.

I got 60k out of Falken Wildpeak A/T. Only rotated them once, probably could have gotten 70k if I rotated them more frequently. Mostly highway miles.

My wife has over 50k miles on a set of Michelin CrossClimate2 tires on her Impreza and they still have a good amount of tread on them.

I put new tires on it at 27,000 miles. Michelin all weather and they have worn no different from front to back, side to side. I keep up with rotation and haven’t had any odd wear.

I usually give Nokians the edge, but Michelin X Ice purchased and installed at Costco is probably the easiest overall ownership experience, especially if you have to warranty anything.

We have Michelin X ice, love them.

Seem to have good tread wear and performance

Just did an 8k mile road trip on new Wildpeak AT4Ws and they were excellent for everything from freeway to up the side of a mountain. Nice and quiet, drives easy, and three peak mountain snowflake rated.

I put a set of Michelin WeatherGuards on our Smart AWD SUV before last winter. The car drove great down steep icy hills when the roads were closed down.

Great tyres, just don't put them on a high performance car. Or don't drive it like its designed too haha. The cords start to show even though there is still plenty tread. I had that in my RS5. But for normal driving, they are ace, and the tread lasts forever.

Worse tires ever! Road noise, terrible in rain. The noise had 10k miles on them, 2024 model cx90 phev.
