Tires MICHELIN or Giti

I switched to Michelin Defender T&H. I don't drive aggressively so these tires are perfect for me.

I'm running Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3 Plus tires and found them to be far better than the tires that came from the factory.

replaced factory garbage with Michelin Pilot Sport AS3+ at 20k miles, drives much better on them.

I’ve got a 2013 Ford Taurus limited, and I’ve got the crossclimate 2’s on her. Beat tires I’ve ever had. They’re a little expensive, but they’re well worth it. They’re designed to push snow and rain away from your vehicle. Stoping power even in the snow is great.

I have the Michellin Defender LTX. Good grip, but definitely a better tire than my west lakes I had before.

I just traded in those Accords this month for '22 Sport 2.0T's that came stock with Michelin Primacy MXM4. Night and day difference on the road noise and it absolutely gives it a more comfortable ride.

I feel like a broken record with this one, but I highly recommend the Michelin PS4S or PS4AS. They made my accord feel a whole lot more connected to the road, and the All Seasons handle Wisconsin winters just fine.

If you can afford it, Michelin is worth it in the long run. They’re the only tire I know that lasts longer than the warranty period based on Consumer Reports.

I warrantied my OEM set (replaced at 14k miles) and never contacted michelin myself, just went to discount tire and inquired about it with them. As for the tires wearing out after 14k miles: I did do some occasional aggressive driving, but nothing too out of the ordinary. Evenly worn all around and rotated every 5k.

I totally agree with ALL your comments about the stock Michelins. It is a shame VW but such a crappy tire on such a fine car. The HXMX4 is one of the lowest rated all season tires based on user reviews at Tire Rack. I was really happy to send the Michelins to the recycling bin...
