Tires MICHELIN or GENERAL TIRE

Michelin Defender 2 tires is the way to go. One of the best tires of all time

4th winter with these, Montréal, Québec. Can’t barely see the difference with winters. 2025 Golf GTI, It’s the driver stupid…

I just got some on my Lexus. Drive wonderful. Zero noise complaints from my end, granted Lexus has really good sound proofing in the cab.

Tinted windows and Michelin Defenders after the OEM tires crapped out around 20k miles were also big improvement’s.

The Defenders might be the best all season tire you can buy. They last forever and ride extremely well.

Used them for 3 years on an Explorer in New England and they're definitely worth it. Never skimp on tires or brakes.

Living in CO, I can definitely recommend the CC2. Fantastic treadlife and handles really well in wet/hydroplaning to moderate snow. It’s not as good on ice as a dedicated snow tire but not bad at all. Personally, I haven’t noticed it being too loud as others have complained.

Depends what you need them for. They are very surefooted in the wet and good in snow (for all seasons). Definitely a bit loud so that’s the trade off. I love them for where I live. The continentals and Mich Primacy’s I had previously are much quieter but lacked the same level of wet grip

Michelin PA4s are better for dry, wet and a little ice. They are not so good in snow. I had them on my Golf R. Although I never got stuck, they don't inspire confidence in snow.

I got the Kia Niro EV used. It came with Michelin Primacy MXV4. If I drive in Normal mode or Sport mode, they slip with even moderate amounts of acceleration.
