Tires MICHELIN or NANKANG

MICHELIN Tires

I don't drive the Miata in the rain much, but the couple times I have, the grip has been excellent. The only time I've unintentionally broke traction on these tires is when I was going downhill into a decreasing radius turn and hit a patch of gravel.

Pros: excellent wet grip

Overall, I really like the new wheel and tires, but I wouldn't say it's all upside either. The Michelins are just that much quieter and more comfortable (Granted the previous tires were nearing the end of their life, but they were always loud). I listen to the stereo 5-6 clicks lower than I used to as well. The grip is also far higher, and putting my right foot down mid corner no longer induces instant oversteer and spinning tires. It just hooks up and goes. It's still fun, but it definitely has changed the character of the car a fair bit. It's much more serious, and while I enjoy the added grip, there's certainly something to be said for what has been lost. On the bright side, when winter hits I'll get to have some more low(er) traction fun when I put the stock wheels back on.

Pros: quieter, more comfortable, higher grip
Cons: changed car character, less playful

Now have a 2014 mustang gt with michelin as3+ and they were decent ..even though they were worn down ..got as4 when they came out around I think June 2020? Felt good on the rears . But I guess like all tires take a bit warming up when cold . Felt some slipping only 4k miles in...but I am a lead foot ..understatement as well.

Pros: felt good on rears
Cons: felt some slipping
Mileage: 4000 km

I had a set on a 2008 F-250 work truck. Wore down quickly ~15K miles and unevenly. Felt like hard plastic chunks when cold, noisy, no off road traction. Had one blow out at about 60 mph and later on I had another tire get a tumbleweed puncture in the sidewall. They were trash. Swapped them out for a proper set of tires.

Cons: wore quickly, uneven wear, hard when cold, noisy, no off-road traction, blowouts, punctures
