Tires MICHELIN or Kumho

If you can only afford one set of tires, get an all-weather set. Michelin CrossClimates are a good example.

Buy Michlin. Best money per mile. I ALWAYS get 90k+

I have Michelin PS A/S 4 on my STI and they are the best tires I've ever had. Wet traction and hydroplaning resistance was also much improved.

Michelin Primacy! Just changed my set from yokohama and the difference is evident.

These are EV specific tires and do include foam padding inside. After installation, I noticed an immediate improvement in road noise. What really impressed me was the improvement in road noise during city driving and driving over bumps specifically. The Kumhos were much quieter in both areas. The ride also felt immediately smoother and more refined over the Continentals. While the tires did also reduce road noise in highway driving, the difference was not as stark as the former mentioned scenarios. I think the explanation there is that the tires can only do so much; we all know how poor the pre-highland Model 3s are in terms of sound insulation.

Again as these are EV specific tires, they were created with range in mind. With the Continentals, I averaged 230wh/mi over 40,000 miles. I've since driven 1,500 miles with the Kumho tires, and I am sitting at 218wh/mi. Not a game changer but certainly an improvement nontheless.

Overall I am very pleased with the Kumho tires.

Been using Michelin cross climate 2s for 3 winters. Been satisfied with the performance. previously used to do the all season and switch to dedicated winters which were nokian winters.

Maintenance on the car is minimal. Yes tires and brakes will go, but just put money away for those things. I changed from the OEM wheels and tires to 18s and now get 30k miles on Michelin PS4s.

I've never had a set of tires ever make it to their lesser 50-65k warranty mileage, until michelins, which have lasted longer than their 80k warranty for me, both defenders on compact car and ltx on 1/2 ton truck, and both were smoother and quieter.

Great tyres, just don't put them on a high performance car. Or don't drive it like its designed too haha. The cords start to show even though there is still plenty tread. I had that in my RS5. But for normal driving, they are ace, and the tread lasts forever.

I went with cross climate 2s, but the performance has been really disappointing in wet conditions at low speeds, i lose traction often.
