Tires MICHELIN or MRF

My winter set. 18x8 Niche Targa et42, Michelin Pilot Alpin 225/40/18

18x8 Neuspeed RSe52 with Michelin AS3's in 235/40 ZR18 on stock suspension. I'm debating VWR springs, but don't want to ruin the DCC.

I have the Michelin Premiers and they're a great tire. I have 70+ k miles on mine with 5mm tread left. They're excellent in rain (even now) and snow.

I'd definitely recommend paying the little extra for the Michelins.

Personally I will probably never own a tire that isnt michelin again. Their tires are of higher quality and better compound than the rest in my experience.

I plan on running 235/45R17 Michelin Alpin PA4 on an OEM set of Audi wheels for the winter setup.

My wife's Jeep is running BJ's Michelin tires. Been on for two years and still work/look great.

I recently bought a set of the "discount" special deal Michelin tires for the wife's car and the part number and SKU were identical to the ones I could buy at Discount Tire, Tire Rack, Firestone, or any other tire installer.

I have a set of Pilot Sport A/S 3s from Costco and have detected no cost cutting. They are awesome.

It is an EXTREMELY common problem on Mk4's to show cupping on inside of rear tires even with everything at spec. After you rotate them, the \"good front\" tires on rear will then begin cupping also, and the noise problem will increase as they wear more... the rears will \"sing\" with the cupped fronts (formerly on rear) and you can get some pretty loud droning at low speeds, only becoming less noticable at high speeds.
