Tires MICHELIN or Hankook

We have these (T+H) on the Rav4. No complaints. Quiet, good in the rain, comfy, inexpensive when on sale. Tread life isn't 80k or whatever the warranty number is, not by a long shot, but what tire ever hits that? They'll need replacing around 55-60k, at which point I'll get the Defender 2.

I have a set on the Audi. I run them all year round. They are great IMHO. Michelin CrossClimate 2

I've used both tires. The Pirellis came oem on my Audi. I swapped them fir the Michelins. Ride comfort and handling made the Michelins the clear cut winner.

I've been on the hankooks for about 6 weeks and I love them. I didn't see an increase in efficiency compared to the Goodyear but they're silent.

On a side note my wife’s Lincoln SUV runs Michelin defender’s and they are a great on-road tire!

Have had both. Ok my second set of Defenders now. If you want actual on road performance and tread life get the Defenders. In my experience the Michelins are much better in rain.

For your application, defenders all the way.

Defenders, best all-around tire hands down.

I switched from Road 4 to Road 6. I used both tires for around 2 years and 25,000 km, and went back to Road 4 (I wasn’t looking for Road 4, it was in stock and around %30 cheaper). In my experience, the cold grip on Road 4 is much better, and even after they heat up, Road 4 still feels like it has better grip. Additionally, I noticed that the bike pulled slightly to the left with Road 6.

Running Michelin Sport 4S - On 21’ GTI - While they are great in grip and fun they absolutely SUCK for wear. We rotate every 5k on the GTI they lasted 12k…10 months in south Florida. I check the air every month.
