Tires MICHELIN or Kumho

I'm in the same boat as you are. 2022 AWD and I'm looking at the Michelin crossclimate 2 or the Yokohama yk-ctx.

The Kumho is a far superior tire from a respected manufacturer based in South Korea. The Radar might look like the better deal up front, but it will likely wear fast and not perform anywhere near as good as the Kumho tires.

I had those Kumhos on my mustang and found they were really good. No complaints about them. I highly recommend them especially for the price

I'm in Vancouver where it constantly rains for half the year and I haven't noticed any issue with the stock Kumhos whether in the city or on the highway.

Even in the snow, I felt they performed fine driving at half the speed limit in the city.

I got a set of Kuhmo's 2 years ago and I have no complaints. For the price I paid, I love them. They feel like the Michelin and Continental tires I have had previously, but I don't know if they will last as long.

We have Michelin defender2 on the alltrack for the past 20K and they are nice and quiet, no signs of cupping so far.

I have Defender 2s and still have 7mm of tread left after 80,000 miles. They've been great so far.

Something like the Michelin Defender is a safe bet and I've run those on Rav4's before.

I ran Michelin Pilot Sport AS4+ on my SQ5 before I sold it. For most CUV, running car all season tires is better and often cheaper solution if you never go off pavement (sand/mud/grass etc)

Michelin tires lose more air than any tire I've ever had.
