I drive a ford cmax energi (4500lbs). I first went to the AS05 when I got sticker shock for replacing the low resistence michelins it came with. Been through 2 1/2 sets in 100kmiles. They have been consistent and even wearing. Just replaced 2 with the AS07. They are quiter yet the tread seems much more aggressive. Might just be because I was down to racing slicks. Actually looking forward to snow driving in a few months. Just have to turn off the traction control.
I got 55k out of my first set of Michelins so the staggered tire thing is not a big deal.
I always run sport touring tires on my bike. Currently riding a Z900. I love the Michelin Road 6 tires. They are great in all weather conditions, well I don’t how they do in snow and ice but they are amazing in the rain and give good grip in the dry.
I've run DWS and DWS06+ on multiple cars (MK4 jetta, GTI, 8P 3.2, RS4) and have friends with the same on other marques, over a period of at least 15 years. They are THE choice unless you want to spend more money on the Michelins. The only other option I'd consider is the Michelin CrossClimate, but these are touring tires, so you'll lose more of the dry performance of the DWS or AS/3, but have better "weather" performance, if that makes sense. I know a few folks with these, and they seem to like it, but they're appliance owners, not car enthusiasts.
I put the MICHELIN X-TOUR A/S 2 on the Crossturd and I've been happy with them. Quiet and handle rain well. Handling has remained the same or better than the Uniroyal Tiger Paws the dealer had put on there - probably not a big feat there.
I've had them on my 2019 for well over a year now, been very happy with them.
I have the CC1 and my inlaws have CC2 tires on our AWD wagons. Hands down some of the best riding tires I have had. Also the best wet traction, will see what miles I get from a set.
I put them on my 2018 ridgeline last fall. Have been great, were very good in the snow/ice last winter in MN.
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.
The rear chews through the Michelin PS4 tires. I replaced them with Firestone Firehawk Indy 500s.
