Tires MICHELIN or Kumho

PS4S > all

Michelin on my opinion... Ive had great performance and treadwear from them.

I’m a long-term buyer of the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S, and prior to that the Pilot Super Sport. I replace them yearly at 15k miles.

Id suggest Michelin, not a car tire but the ltx a/t2 tires for light trucks went 100k miles on one review i saw. I have defenders on my work truck and 16k on them and they look new still.

All Michelin tires are quieter than most brands since they are softer. Even winters.

I do 25,000 a year and for 7 years I have only used all season tires, for the climate we have I think they are perfect!

I finally went and swapped them out for Michelin Defender 2s and it made a huge difference. The road noise is greatly reduced and has a lot less bass in it. The noise from the car moving through the air is now the louder thing, whereas I couldn’t even hear that before. Driving on the same roads as before my watch shows I’m at about 62db which seems like a pretty big improvement. I also feel that the ride has been improved over smaller bumps.

Got them on my 21 Onyx. They’re great in the rain and surprisingly good in the snow. Quiet even at 80+.

I recently changed tires (Michelin Pilot AS4) and within a week I got a nail in one which developed a slow leak 2-3 psi per day. In this case topping it off did make the TPMS light go away by itself without needing to press the TPMS button.

I think it’s gotta be the Kumho all seasons I have on my DD right now, they have absolutely zero grip even on perfectly dry warm roads
