Tires MICHELIN or MRF

MICHELIN Tires

First thing going on my project s2k is a fresh set of Michelin Pilot Sport 4s. Things that make constant contact with the ground should not be substituted for a cheaper, inferior replacement.

Cons: cheaper, inferior

The Michelins Xice are so good I rarely buy anything else. Hardly notice they are on in dry conditions. The big van gets BFG KO2 tires and those pretty much rule as well

Pros: so good, hardly notice in dry conditions

I purchased a set of X-Ice for my old Audi A6 years ago and had great tire life - over 8 winters - and still only half worn when I sold the car with 144,000 miles on it. Super traction on Ice - Packed Snow - and every day cold weather wet driving in Seattle. Took a trip in CA national parks in December and never got stuck. So when I got my Alltrack SEL - I saved the 17 inch wheels from my Buyback TDI - and bought another set of Michelin X-Ice to fit the 17's and though only driven one winter I think they are great. They are not noisy and a great ride - better then the Conti's on 18 inch Wheels actually.

Pros: great tire life, super traction, not noisy, great ride
Vehicle: Audi A6
Mileage: 231745 km

I own a rwd lowered coupe, drove it all winter last year and bought Michelin x ice tires, had no issues. As long as you're a decent winter driver and have good winter tires you'll be fine.

Pros: no issues

Definitely winters for a RWD, I had a RWD 335i with X-Ice 3 and I never had an issue with tires. The only problem I had with snow was my car basically plowing the streets because it was so low.

Pros: no issue with tires
Cons: car plowed streets
Vehicle: BMW

I would suggest Michelin Defenders, my JSW had them on for 35,000 miles and look great when I traded the car back to VW.

Pros: look great
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 35000 km

Bought Michellin Pilot Sport 4s for my 06 2.3L (figured why not spend a bit more because you don't really buy tyres often)

I'm very happy with them so far.

Pros: very happy
Vehicle: Mazda

I had Pirelli tires on my car when I first bought it.. Some new all weather performance tires and let’s just say it was quite scary if there was even a little water on the road. I bought Michelin Pilot Super Sport A/S tires and they have been absolutely fantastic. Rain, shine, or snow the grip levels are very high, blow Pirelli out of the water. There have been instances in the snow when I feel the Michelin tires have saved my life. With the Pirellis, I would not even consider taking the car out in the snow. I drive a Mustang GT.

Pros: high grip levels, great performance
Cons: scary in wet conditions

I was on coilovers for quite a long time and wanted to let everyone know that they cars will eat through rear tires rather quickly once lowered. After the coils were installed I had a proper alignment done ASAP, and noticed that in under 9,000 miles of 97% highway driving my Michelin Pilot Super Sports were just about bald from the inner tread block outward.

Pros: proper alignment done
Cons: tires wear quickly
Vehicle: Audi S3
Mileage: 9000 km
