Tires MICHELIN or Goodyear

Just got the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S and love them.

I use Pilot Sport A/S 4s and they can handle any normal (i.e. non-blizzard) amount of snow with relative ease. They were great in the Midwest last winter, including in the snow.

We have had Michelin Defenders on both ours they ride and handle like no other tire I’ve had.

the cross clime2 are really good tires had them on my van for a couple of years they are a little louder but are almost as good as mich ice on snow and ice and better in rain.

I had 245/55/r18 Goodyear eagle enforcer winter tires and they are probably the best winter tires I’ve ever had. Even on ice (at reasonable speeds) they handled well.

My first set (255 55 R20) lasted for 4 years. Same size on the 2nd set I had installed in late October of 2023. Superior wet traction in the heaviest of downpours. 80 mph on the parkway with no hiccups! Superb snow traction as well, as I was able to negotiate steep snowy roads with my 2020 Ford Explorer Limited Trim without losing traction.

I replaced the stock Michelin Energy Saver set with Michelin Defender2 last year. Never going back.

Definitely better grip and handling, especially when wet. There was an impact to range but it was pretty negligible.

Pick up some Michelin Cross Climate 2’s. Triple peak snow rated, 60k miles, and perform well even in the heat.

Just have these on for ~2 months

Handling in dry is still pretty good, not as sharp as the stock one for sure, but good enough for me

Heard that they are good inthe wet. I went through couple rainy days and felt like it's quite easy to get hydroplane.

Car didn't lose control, but I have never realised those water puddles in the past with other tires

Not sure whether it's a good thing or not

I got 3 years/70k out of them. Absolute dog shit for traction but they still had some tread when I changed them out for continentals.
