I have been riding on them for about 11,000 miles. 2018 GSW SE. Excellent tires so far. Properly inflated, not loud at all but do have a low grumble that is not bad. Fantastic wet tire. They remain planted in the rain and give good secure ride. Ride more like summer tires on dry pavement, cold or warm weather. Great ride I am in Wisconsin and they are superior to all seasons in snow, although nothing compares to true "snow" tires. I've driven in some pretty good storms and they are definitely sufficient for most conditions. Will slip in snow a bit here and there, but give plenty of traction for acceleration and braking. Ice... be careful, regardless, and these are not studded tires. I highly recommend them for all season driving, including right through the snow.

Pros: fantastic wet tire, good secure ride
Cons: slight slip in snow, low grumble
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 11000 km

Picked up a screw in my rear tire yesterday on the stock tires. Figure I'll just replace the set. I've been getting a bunch of recommendations on Michelin Road 5 Tires.

Pros: recommendations on Michelin tires
Vehicle: Honda

I've had the GTI nearly 5 years now, and the mod list has been fairly simple: Different OEM wheels with Michelin AS/3+ tires + spacers to make them fit the way they should have stock JB1 piggyback module to give the car the in-gear passing power it should have had stock OEM Clubsport S rear exhaust to make it sound a bit more like a GTI, not an anonymous econobox Driver Gear springs to reduce the +10mm ride height from stock that the DCC equipped cars have All LED exterior light conversion so it doesn't look like it's from 2007 A bunch of VCDS tweaks to enable features the car should have had from the factory (comfort open/close on the windows, for instance) None of this dramatically changes the character of the car, and nothing I've done was terribly expensive; but it has made it more the car I wanted it to be stock.

Pros: made it more wanted
Cons: nothing terribly expensive
Vehicle: Volkswagen

I went with 205/50R-17 Michelin X-Ice Xi3 SL (from original 225 on 18\") for winter driving on my GTI. Motivation was keeping circumference the same. Have been happy with Michlins in North East.

Pros: happy with performance
Vehicle: Volkswagen

I drove on a set of Michelin X-Ice 3s during my time in Detroit. We didn’t get tons of snow, but plenty of ice and they held up well.

Pros: held up well

Same for tires. Michelins are the premium tires to buy. Bfgoodrich is great not as good but made by Michelin. Uniroyal (which makes tiger paws that some people loathe) is a cheap tire made by Michelin.

Pros: premium tires, good quality
Cons: cheap tires, some loathe

I took advantage of the 4th of July sales and ditched the stock Pirellis for Michelin Sport 4S because I’m going for a road trip along Big Sur and through the Redwoods (Hated the Pirellis).

Pros: better road trip experience
Cons: hated the Pirellis

Michelin Xi3 on my Mustang. I got stuck once in my alleyway because of a really bad ice storm, but otherwise no problems. They are a bit floaty (as winter tires tend to be), but otherwise good dry performance too.

Pros: good dry performance, no problems
Cons: a bit floaty, got stuck once in ice storm
