I purchased these tires for a road trip from Northern WA to So Cal.

It had no issues and it made me feel so safe. We drove through much rain, and some icey conditions.

A month later, I took it over the mountain passes of WA. Snow occurred a few days before, so the roads were plowed but still snowy/icey. Drove only 35mph but it handled like a dream. Never fish tailed once or felt loss of control.

Duirng normal WA state weather. Drives without issue. I don't notice any noise differences compared to my stock tires.

Pros: felt super safe, handled well

Just purchased a set of Michelin CROSSCLIMATE 2 225/45R18 for Minnesota winters for my 2019. One of the best rated tires in Consumer Reports.

Pros: best rated tires

Costco has served me well. Bought a set of Michelins a few months ago. Great tires, but I caught a nail near the sidewall. Costco ordered a new tire and replaced it for free.

Pros: great tires, replaced for free
Cons: caught nail near sidewall

I like my general G-Max's. All season is a stretch and they are a bit loud, but the grip is good and the sidewall is supportive.

Pros: good grip, supportive sidewall
Cons: bit loud, not all-season

I was thinking of getting the Michelin Pilot A/S on my TSportline 20x10 TSS wheels but went with the Conti ExtremeContact DWS 06 plus.

Pros: better dry
Cons: stretched look

I got 22k miles out of the Michelins of which 5k were unsafe due to bad wet traction. I am 40k miles into the replacements and they are still going strong.

Pros: replacements going strong
Cons: bad wet traction
Mileage: 22000 km

I've had bad experiences with 2 out of 5 General Tire Exclaim UHP's I've bought. First tire had a terrible vibration from day 1. When the tire shop mounted my tires, they said one balanced fine, but may have a "hop" at highway speed. Well, the "hop" was very noticeable. When the wheel was on the back, the car shook so bad on the highway I literally could not drink coffee without spilling on myself. When the wheel was mounted on the front, the steering wheel would shake so bad my hands would go numb. I had this tire replaced under warranty and the car drove great. A couple weeks ago, after coming into town from a highway commute, I could hear a loud rhythmic humming at around 50 km/h. Tire shop again tried re-balancing this wheel with no improvement. Tire has hardly any wear and wheel itself looks to be in great condition. I didn't hit any rocks of potholes before this started. This is getting really annoying. I just want a reliable tire.

Cons: terrible vibration, car shook, steering wheel shake, loud rhythmic humming, unreliable
