Tires MICHELIN or FEDERAL

I went with Michelin defender ltx m/s and they rock. Plenty comfortable.

I've had no issues with mine; grip for days. Not sure what better ride would refer to. I don't think they're overly noisy, by any means.

A really popular tire is the Michelin cross climate 2. But I think they prioritize snow and rain performance. Nevertheless, I have them on my work car and my brother on their pilot and both seem like a nice ride.

Those are absolutely amazing tires because they grip so well in the winter plus they handle like sporty high performance tires on winding mountain roads.

The Federals have been good for me the last couple of years for a budget tire, but they're really only a budget friendly tire for larger sizes.

The previous owners kept the brakes flushed and the oil changed right on schedule. It had a water pump at replaced at 70k, spark plugs at 60k(getting time for that again), and the normal 80k service with the rear end inspected and new fluid. It has some Michelin Pilots with most of the tread left.

I like the Michelin defenders, pretty good in all elements and lasts about 70k.

Folks liked those Michelins very much, generally.

Federal 595RS-PRO 275 width - Lower grip levels than RE71 or similar, but they wear like rocks. I am on heat cycle 15 and they have no significant wear. Time deltas for me on a short, technical track are ~1.5-2 secs slower than my other tires, however.

Well, the A/S-3 blows in the snow so definitely dont get that as your all season.
