Tires MICHELIN or Laufenn

I saw you had some random no-name tire on the fronts and Pilot Sport 4S tires out back. While drag radials would help absolutely, you should see a significant increase by just swapping the 4S tires to your front drive wheels if you have a square set up (same sized front and back).

Ain't cheap but amazing I put my hat in the ring for the Michelin Crossclimate 2

the PS4S’ have been the best performance street tire I’ve used, im on my second set.

I've had good luck with Michelin tires dating back to the ones on my mom's Golf when I was in high school. They tend to be a little more expensive than other brands but they're a sure thing.

Factory tires are extremely mid. If you'll be driving in harsh weather conditions you should plan on upgrading them. I put Michelin CrossClimate 2s on mine and am very happy with them all year round.

x-ice on another FWD SUV and they did well.

Had the Michelin X Ice on my gen 1 for a few seasons. They worked great.

I had Defenders on my 2010 Escape. Loved them and they were so quiet rolling down the road.

They are what I expect for OEM/stock light duty truck tires, fine on the road and light off-road duty into a farm field or pasture. They don't slip anywhere near as much as the Michelin aftermarket tires I ran on my F150 on wet pavement/gravel and seem pretty reasonable on the road noise so far.

I was in a prius with michelin defenders on rt90 in MA during a rainstorm at 65 with cruise control when the front wheels just spun out, lost traction
