I have them on my 2020 civic and my wife’s 2020 CR-V. Love them. Road noise is a little loud. Had them for 2 years now getting close to 40 k on them and they still have lots of tread on them probably get 80k out of them if you don’t drive hard on them.

Pros: lots of tread
Cons: road noise a little loud
Vehicle: Honda Civic
Mileage: 64373 km

I have these and can confirm they are great. I don’t feel the need to look at any other tires. I live in Colorado and they see a lot of snowy mountain use, which they handle very very well for not being dedicated snow tires.

Pros: handle very very well
Vehicle: Honda

I had the Michelin's on my car as my last tire set and just thought I'd experiment with another tire brand for my current set so I picked up the Fallen FK510. I'd say for daily driving it's very compatible and less sketchy in rainy conditions

Pros: very compatible
Cons: less sketchy

We have them on our 19 Pilot for about 25k miles. Very good wet traction. Note that they are directional so you can only rotate them front to back without using a tire machine to demount from the rim. Usually not an issue if you have good/even alignment and get even tire wear. So, moral of the story is get an alignment done after installling them.

I think they are a little bit noisier than than the original Continentals but they wore too fast.

Pros: very good wet traction
Cons: a little bit noisier

I have them on my Civic '16, and they are amazing for NYC. They handle hydroplaning really well too. They have a slightly higher hum compared to the Civic stock but it's really hard to notice especially in a loud city like NYC.

MPG did go down a bit but well worth the trade off for safety. They grip really well in wet conditions and shorten braking distance.

Pros: handle hydroplaning really well
Cons: MPG did go down
Vehicle: Honda Civic

I recently purchased Michelin CrossClimate 2 tires for my wife’s 2018 CRV EX-L FWD and I have to say they are pretty stellar. Thus far we have put at least 2000 miles on them to include a 14 hour road trip. Excellent traction on wet roads and far superior to the Goodyear Assurance we had before. We have driven through a couple significant downpours and these tires have confidence on wet roads. As for the alleged noise complaints, I think they’re very quiet compared to the old tires. Rolling resistance/ MPG; no changes and I would have happily sacrificed a couple MPG for good traction in FWD vehicle.

Pros: excellent traction on wet roads
Cons: price about $1000
Vehicle: Honda
Mileage: 3218 km

Have experience with Kumho vs Michelin pilots 4s.

Similar price (ish). Kumho are rubbish. Completely changed the handling of the car for the better when I went on the pilots.

You wont get mileage though.

Pros: changed handling for better
Cons: won't get mileage

I have a set of 215/40 18 nankang ns-20's. Tires of course are on the cheaper side but many run them so thats what I went with. They perform fine for daily use and ride alright, however a few months back now I noticed that the driver side tire had some (at the time) small cracks in the sidewall. Thought thats odd but didnt have means to buy new tires so kept driving on them. Of course it got worse and then the passenger front tire began to do the same. This week I threw on a set of steelies and inspected all 4 tires and they all have the same sidewall cracks. The rears not as bad as the fronts but still present. Mainly on the inside of the rear tires, outside and inside of the front tires. Rear tread id say is like 60-70% remaining while the front are maybe 50% or so. Tires are also less than 3 years old with maybe 30k miles. Super frustrating as I have no idea why they did this and are pretty much trash at this point.

Pros: fine for daily use, ride alright
Cons: sidewall cracks, pretty much trash
Mileage: 48280 km
