Tires MICHELIN or Hankook

A really popular tire is the Michelin cross climate 2. But I think they prioritize snow and rain performance. Nevertheless, I have them on my work car and my brother on their pilot and both seem like a nice ride.

Those are absolutely amazing tires because they grip so well in the winter plus they handle like sporty high performance tires on winding mountain roads.

I got the Hankook iON EVO AS tires and like them so far. Hopefully they don’t bubble on sidewall as easily as the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires.

I use 165/80 r15 hankook summer tires and they are excellent, both wet and dry grip.

The previous owners kept the brakes flushed and the oil changed right on schedule. It had a water pump at replaced at 70k, spark plugs at 60k(getting time for that again), and the normal 80k service with the rear end inspected and new fluid. It has some Michelin Pilots with most of the tread left.

I like the Michelin defenders, pretty good in all elements and lasts about 70k.

Folks liked those Michelins very much, generally.

My pilot all season 4 tires have a 540 treadwear and I got about 20k on the rears.

Got a set on my Honda Clarity not long ago, this is my first set of CrossClimate 2 tires on an electric vehicle. I got these because I was so happy with them on my Camry.

They are fantastic in the rain. I've never had a tire so resistant to hydroplaning.

But I want to warn everyone interested that these tires are very noisy in the low frequency range of about 60-160 Hz.

I hated them in wet and snow. I replaced them with Falken Wildpeak At3w's after 5k miles. The At3w's are head and shoulders above the Hankook's in the wet and snow.
