Tires MICHELIN or Firestone

Same for tires. Michelins are the premium tires to buy. Bfgoodrich is great not as good but made by Michelin. Uniroyal (which makes tiger paws that some people loathe) is a cheap tire made by Michelin.

I took advantage of the 4th of July sales and ditched the stock Pirellis for Michelin Sport 4S because I’m going for a road trip along Big Sur and through the Redwoods (Hated the Pirellis).

I have Ecopias as OEM rolling @ 99. My winters (GTA) are Michelin X-Ice Xi3 99T @ 215-65-17.

I have a focus St with Michelin pilot super sports. While the compound sucks when it hits freezing temps, I've had no issues getting around, unless it's super icy.

I haven't been able to gloat anywhere, but I just nabbed a pair of PS4Ss for 149/ea. They really are incredible tires

On the two Hondas I leased, all I did other than oil changes was switch out the tires on my Accord coupe V6/6-speed after one got punctured. I wanted to do it anyway; the stock tires sucked, and the one thing the car did great was accelerate, so I put a set of Michelin Super Sports on it. It stopped acting like I was waterboarding it with high-RPM shifts into 2nd after that.

Just had a set of 225/40R18 Pilot Sport 4s tires mounted on my summer wheels -- saved $150. :beer: Great service at my local Tire Center. Guys were nice and knew their stuff. They also used a $16,000 Coats APX90E tire changer, which was a nice bonus and didn't leave a scratch anywhere.

I save some cash and can get in sooner with a local Firestone. They do good work and have never let me down.

This is typical of a 4 year old Michelin though..

Honestly, the Michelins are generally more recommended here over the Conti's... and after 35k on my 99, the best thing I ever did was get rid of the frickin Michelins, and replaced 'em with Bridgestone Potenza's... SOOOO much better wet traction
