Tires MICHELIN or Kormoran

Check out the Michelin Wild Enduro tires. Much cheaper than Maxxis, but, in my opinion, as good or even better

Im on my 2nd set of Michelin Premier A/S and I really like them on both my 14 Jetta TDI and my parents 15 Passat TDI. Its a decent budget Michelin that is good for about 50k miles.

I live in MN and switched out OEM ecopias on my '17 Mazda to some michelin cross climate+'s and absolutely love them! Drove thru a blizzard with them and thing handled beautifully on unplowed roads!

I put the car version of these on our Corolla last year before we sent it to our kid in CT last fall -- they said the car was great all winter, plus you can use them all year 'round. They just called us after someone blew a stop sign and pulled right out in front of them and said the car was able to stop so hard that everything flew into the dashboard which is the opposite of the Continental LRR tires that came on it where the ABS would just click uselessly on dry pavement. I didn't get to drive on them very much before we shipped the car up there, but they feel like a regular all-season tire, not a squirmy snow tire. I did pay $10 extra to get the V-rated version for a little extra stiffness.

I had Michelin X-Ice on my wife’s car this past season and they were by far the quietest snow tire I’ve ever had so I stay stick with Michelin.

I have a 2002 Explorer Eddie Bauer that I love. Fantastic vehicle, and we call her "Dora" (the Explorer.) I put Michelin Defender LTX M/S on mine. Works wonderfully, and since my family loves it too, the Michelins bring peace of mind since they are comfortable, tough, and have excellent traction wet and dry (I've not tried snow since it doesn't snow in SoCal.)

I literally just put these on my 2016 Kia Soul and have not noticed any difference in road noise or loudness. I find the ride just as comfortable or more than the Kumho Solus stock tires they replaced. They are quiet and the grip I get gives me great confidence so far driving on dry and pouring rain this past week in Pennsylvania. I highly recommend the new Michelin’s at least in initial quality with less than 100 miles on.

I ordered some 235/55/17 Michelin X-ice tires since Discount Tire was having a sale on Michelins.

I really like Michelin tires. Their wild enduro tires have more highspeed and cornering grip than anything else that I've tested.

Honestly this isn't all that uncommon in Michelins and Michelin won't warrant it, they call it normal.
