Tires MICHELIN or GISLAVED

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.

I run these to get to ski resorts from denver on cold ass winter mornings. Good tire

We’re on 2nd set of the cross climates on an XC90. Only downside is they are a little noisy. Soooo much better than OEM tires…

Only thing that’s been on our Polestar 2 since the day we bought it back in 2022. Just put second set on after 60k miles, so I can vouch for the tread wear rating.

I use 18" Michellin X winters in STL/KC MO area, have every winter since 2023. Have never felt my car (2022 m3 lr dual motor) slip even during ice storms or snow like last year where people were sliding sideways in STL and I have a very steep drive to get in and out of

I put these on all of my cars now, I also live in New England. I used to have dedicated snows, but now I run these year round. Amazing tires.

Honestly the car drives even better than new after recently replacing the original Bridgestone turanza tires with Michelin cross climates. World of difference. Super happy.

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)

Cup2 is a garbage tire that is basically great for 2-3 sessions and then turns into a pumpkin for the remainder of its tread life.
