Tires MICHELIN or Hankook

Michelin, for the win. They have stronger sidewalls

Some more budget friendly brands that make good tires are Hankook.

Yes, it is worth it to spend more money. They will last longer, be more comfortable, have more grip, and make less noise.

I put a set of Michelin Crossclimate 2 on my 2016 OBL over a year and a half ago and would not switch to or recommend any other tire for all around use here in New England. Amazing traction in any kind of situation I've been in.

The first time I put Michelin Pilot Supersports on my E92 BMW I was awestruck. Not only were those tires amazing, but they were replacing runflats which were garbage in any metric besides their ability to run flat which I never used.

Michelin Defender, great sound and 80000 mile tread life warranty. But the Toyos are nothing but hot garbage. I was too cheap to replace them and they gave up the ghost around 35000 miles. I have 25000 miles on the Defenders and still sound the same as new.

Michelin is a good brand too. Went with those my last tire change and they’re still going strong ????

Michelin's! Great grip especially in rainy weather, which is a priority for me. Plus, they're surprisingly quiet for a tire with such good handling.

Our CrossClimates after being fitted mid-2020. The outers are at 3mm, and the inner 4mm. Over 30k miles. Seems acceptable to me. Ours are on a Freelander 2/LR2, so a relatively heavy vehicle.

Got a set of Hankook with 70k miles warranty. After about 35k miles with mainly local suburban driving, the tread wear is almost to the indicator bar. Don't get Hankook.
