Tires MICHELIN or FEDERAL

For real life treadwear experience, all I can tell you is I have done 20000KMs, 7 track days, and about 10 autocrosses on my PSS on my e36 m3 and I'd bet I have 60% tread left.

I've been happy with the Michelin Pilot 3S all-seasons (I think that's the name), pretty quiet for an ultra high performance all season.

235 40 18 tires on stock 18x7.5 wheels

Yes, i noticed a difference, but not drastic.

I have X-ice 3 on my Tucson and they are great. My brother also has them on his Tucson, he does daily highway drives and he loves them.

I purchase michelin tires because they are used on airplanes, the space shuttle, and formula one cars (formerly).

I started on Federal 595 SS, As I progressed as a driver I changed those out for the Federal RS-RR, Both great tires for cheap and id recommend for a Grassroots style of drifting or open drift days.

[Federal 595 RS-R](https://www.onlinetires.com/products/vehicle/tires/federal/235%252F40-17+federal+595+rs-r+racing+90w+bsw.html) 235/40/17 under $100 per tire. I loved this tire, grip so nice.

And of course better tires - upgraded to Michelin Premiers for best suite of AS characteristics.

i have them on 15x8 on a 165/45 and they are by no means autocrossing tires. What they do have, is the forgiveness in treadwear so they tend to last much better than the toyo proxes that were phased out over a year ago. Now those handled great, but had a terrrible tire tread life.
