Tires MICHELIN or Giti

Buy the cleanest one with the least deferred maintenance, oh and Michelins, you can't go wrong buying a car with Michelins on it.

I drove pretty regularly all winter. It was getting to the point that the stock summer Bridgestones were getting scary in the cold and wet with very little grip. So, in that respect it was a huge improvement in cold weather handling. If we're comparing ideal condition, yeah the winters do not perform nearly as well. The turn in isn't quite as sharp and responsive, there's less steering feedback, and the limits of grip were lower, which was especially noticeable under hard braking. Still, this car is intended to be my primary form of transportation and I didn't want to stop driving it just because it was cold or raining. So, while it was a bit of a handling detriment compared to ideal conditions, it still had plenty of grip for the street and still put a smile on my face every time I got behind the wheel.

I have Michelin Pilot Super Sports 245x45x17 on all corners. Love them! Quite, good handling (I also have Koni Adjustable all around).

I am on my second set of Michelin Energy summer tires from Costco - they are H-rated 175/65-15s made in Germany and meant for the base Mini. They have the BMW star on the sidewall.

So unfortunately my Macan needed new tires...Excellent service, not a single scratch or mark on the wheels, perfectly balanced, on time and as promised, bill had all information including warranty, even to what spec they torqued the wheels bolts, yes, to Porsche specification which is 110 ftlb, tire pressure sport on. I was also very impressed about the friendliness of the staff, they all were knowledgeable, no pressure. Needless to say I may try them again going forward.

Can’t beat Michelin Pilot 4s’

Even with these cheap Giti tires I have about 80% less wheel spin in snowy conditions compared to normal \"Street\" mode in same conditions. Turning a corner, the stability is enhanced and feels safer.

Just took it for my first drive on snowy Boston roads. Slushy really, barely an inch. My impression so far is snow mode clearly retards the Tig's throttle and seems to start in 2nd gear, limiting torque. It feels fairly solid and I didn't feel much slip, even on my own unplowed street.

Performance-wise, I've been happy with my Gitis. At 1/32 of wear at 23K miles, the guy at Discount Tire was impressed.

Michelin Xi3 on my Mustang. I got stuck once in my alleyway because of a really bad ice storm, but otherwise no problems. They are a bit floaty (as winter tires tend to be), but otherwise good dry performance too.
