Tires MICHELIN or Firestone

Michelin LTX , all the way.

Those tires are amazing, they go through puddles like there’s nothing

I live in CT and I had them on my Subaru WRX before I sold it. IMHO Best tires for a 4 season ever. My mom has them on her Volvo, my sister has it on her Toyota and my BIL has it on his Acura.

It's now been a full year with mine. Loved them in the winter. Loved them in the summer.

Michelins defender platinum.

Never look back. Quieeeeet and long lasting. Great rain performance.

Have about 5k on the Michelins after 55K on General Grabbers. As far as quiet goes, the Michelins are definitely quieter (and I think smoother) than the Generals.

I had defenders on my old truck and they last forever.

I drive heavy snow in the winter and logging roads in the summer. I found the stock Michelins hold up really well, and are extremely quiet without slipping in dirt or snow. The tires just don't look like they should work as well as they do.

Have firehawks on a C5, PS4 on a C4 GS. Both are fine for street driving. I certainly can push the C4 WAY harder but how hard you drive is a huge factor. The PS4 is also way susceptible to flat spotting if the car sits (mine do)

My old pilot sport 5s tires were downright dangerous even with light snow. Forget about ice entirely. They are too expensive and wear too quickly for the 1% of time they are truly useful.
