Tires MICHELIN or Kumho

Good move! I’ve got 4 of those baby’s waiting for the new Clubman to arrive. Great tires. Noise reduces after a 1000 or so. Fantastic any time of year but especially in snow and rain.

I did the same and got the same tires, cross climate 2. Ride is so much smoother over potholes and bumps.

Decided to remove the Run Flat tires and upgraded to Michelin Crossclimate 2 tires. Immediately I could tell how much better the car drives. Smoother and quieter. Really looking forward to winter.

Loving my new Crossclimate 2s. Was worried they would impact my range, but they haven't. Fantastic grip in all conditions.

We had Kumhos on the first ID4 for 2-3000 miles and they seemed perfectly fine to me.

I just put Michelin Defenders on my car, replacing the original Bridgestone Alenza.

I guess they aren't considered EV tires but they are doing well as far as I can tell. My range hasn't taken a hit at all.

Have the stock kumhos from vw which to my knowledge are not the ev specific kumhos that are out now. 17k miles and 0 issues, plenty of tread left. Quiet, ride nice, and do well in rain/deep snow. Definitely recommend them.

There are a lot of anecdotes out there that the foam doesn't make a dimes difference in noise levels. I'll add to them that when I replaced mine with Michelins fro Costco the noise level actually went down.

Try the Michelin route, maybe they'll cover it.

Your studs look super worn out and those tires are crap anyway dude. In Finland, you dont cheap out on a set of winter tires.
