Rating 5.0

Depends on what you want and what you value, but I put Michelin’s on all of my cars. The ride is better, the handling is better, and they typically wear better.

Pros: ride is better, handling better

I’m not sure if they make them in the correct size for the car but the oem star marked ps4s made for bmw are more aggressive and contain a rubber compound more similar to the cup 2s. Tyre reviews compared the regular ps4s to the star marked and raved about them compared to the regular tires.

Pros: more aggressive, better rubber
Vehicle: BMW

Get whatever the newest N-spec Michelin is available in your sizes/for your vehicle. Not a fan of the OEM Pirellis on the 991s and Michelin is much better all around.

Pros: Michelin better all around
Cons: Not a fan of Pirellis
Vehicle: Porsche 911

Around 60k swapped mine for Michelin Cross Climate 2's

I am in the snow a bunch in the winter and these are one of the best all weather/all season tires.

Pros: best all weather tires
Mileage: 60000 km

I also have the Defender 2 though I didn't quite make as deliberate a choice. I jumped a curve in a parking lot and did sidewall damage (some metal bit on a storm drain) to my stock tires, and I had the car towed to Discount Tire and the Defender 2 was the only good option in stock at the time.

GT Radial Tires

I drive a 05 wrx and have had both Blizzak WS80 and GT Radial Ice Pro 3 on it. I only got the GT Radials because I was in grad school and they were cheap. They get the job done, but are definitely not as good as blizzies. Obviously haven't done any scientific tests, but the steering feel is noticeably worse on the radials, stopping distance is much longer, acceleration worse. Frequently notice them understeering significantly on both wet and snowy roads.

Pros: cheap
Cons: worse steering feel, longer distance
Vehicle: Subaru
