Tires MICHELIN or Hankook

I have Michelin X-Ice2's for my car. No complaints :thumbup:

I have the Hankook iPikes on my Prius and am very happy with them. I've run Michelin Arctic Alpins, Cooper Weathermasters (twice), Firestone Winterforce, Gislaved, and Nokian Haka2's. Each had very minor pros and cons but honestly I didn't find much of a real difference between any of them including the Hakka's which cost twice what the others costs.

We ditched the OEM Bridgestone Dueler HT 684II which is the worst tire on the road today with some Michelin Energy LX4s at around 50k, and that made a hige difference in sound, handling, and ride comfort.

The new tires I bought for the Fit's OEM wheels are Hankook Ventus V4 ES. An initial test drive in the Fit was great - smooth, quiet, actually much better at soaking up bumps with these 205/50R16's than with my Yoko 185/70R14 snow tires, which surprised me.

Michelin Pilot Sport A/S. I have these on my Jetta right now and my god I freaking love them! So much better than those crappy Bridgestones EL-400 that came with the car.

Yes, Hankook Optimo H727. They are CR rated #1 (let the hate fly) and have great reviews on TR and DTD. I got a set for my Golf and I'm VERY happy with them.

I have Hankook Winter I*Pikes in 225/60R16 XL (102 load rating, I think) on my 2003EV. They have worked well for me.

I have 245/45 18 Hankook Ventus S1 rated XL 100V. no problems Tire Rack.

nowadays, the Hankook Ventus V12 Evo K110 can t be beat if price/performance/longevity have to be taken into account i can get 4x 245-40-17 for less than 400 bucks and they'll be at my door in a day from tirerack

It is an EXTREMELY common problem on Mk4's to show cupping on inside of rear tires even with everything at spec. After you rotate them, the \"good front\" tires on rear will then begin cupping also, and the noise problem will increase as they wear more... the rears will \"sing\" with the cupped fronts (formerly on rear) and you can get some pretty loud droning at low speeds, only becoming less noticable at high speeds.
