Tires MICHELIN or Firestone

Night and day with Michelin Snow X tires though. Now, I prefer it over our 4x4 truck for many snow situations (except in fresh snow fall cases where bumper clearance is an issue).

Normal tires were all-season Michelins. It was like night and day on the Blizzaks. My car was on rails when I wasn't driving like a turd. I plowed a couple food-deep right turn lanes that hadn't been touched in an 08 A4 (quattro, ofc) with no problem.

Cross climate twos put them on My 2020 back in October. They've been really good so far. Haven't really tried them in heavy snow yet. But dry weather there very quiet and ride. Very good in wet weather they handle very good so far. I'm very happy with this purchase.

Just took my cc2 in the snow the other day and they rip. Honestly shocked how good they are. Also great in the wet and spirited dry driving

These are the Michelin Defender LTX M/S. Went up slightly to 265/65/18 with no rubbing!

My vehicle spends 99.9% of the time on surface roads, so road manners are incredibly important. However, I do plan to do some very light off-roading (Big Bend NP) in the near future, so I wanted something a little bit more capable than the OEM tires. Not to mention, I think the original tires were meant for a slightly lighter vehicle, as evidenced by the fact that they were beginning to show significant wear around the 20,000 mile range.

In October I ordered **oversize** Michelin PILOT® SPORT ALL SEASON 4s. Stock size: 255/40ZR20. Size I bought for a better look on the rim, added rim ding protection, better look on the car, and more "meat" on the contact patch was 265/40ZR20. Yes, they fit, no problemo.

With these Michelins, my Y is a bloody snowmobile. Can go just about anywhere, even pulling a trailer up and down steep snow/ice covered Tahoe roads. :-)

I just bought Michelin LTX Defenders last week for my 2017. Best tires you can buy hands down.

my wife’s Hybrid Highlander came with Michelins. I forget specifically what but I’m hoping they’ll last over $30k

My Primacy's only lasted 27K miles on my sr+. Sure they had good EV range, and decent handling, but couldn't even last 30K miles.

I worked for Firestone installing tires for a while, and those tires are pretty bad. I guess all budget tires are probably the same, but I wouldn't want those on my car. The number of recalls that went out on those was crazy, almost weekly. They also wear pretty damn fast, and don't grip for shit.
