Tires MICHELIN or Nexen

Had some S3 Evo, for 65000kms (2 sets) and really happy about them ! Very quiet (nothing to compare with the stock Michelin), very good handling on dry and wet roads.

40k+ miles on the evo’s. They have been great, and they were a few decibels quieter than the factory Michelins.

Very few manufacturers have a solid warranty that is actually usable in this regard, however one of the best warranties in the industry is from Nexen.

The Nexens on my 70’ Beetle work great. No need to pay more.

I like Michelin defenders. Quiet, good road pattern, excellent grip on snow and ice

Yeah, I got tired of this happening. Went to Michelin's, and I find them to be much better.

They were absolutely excellent rear tires for a RWD with a lot of power in a snowy climate with a jumpy driver. Zero issues with slippage, balance, wear pattern, etc. since installed in December. 10k miles later and I found them flat with a hole in my parking lot at work, and a plug would not hold, big bummer.

In my opinion, they are the perfect tyre for all of the UK.

I have the PS4S. Under heavy braking, my front would understeer slightly do to traction and I would fishtail coming out of the corners. As long as I was smooth and embraced a little loss of traction, I was fine. Overall, the tires did well on my car.

Wasn't my experience at all. About six months ago I replaced the OEM Geolanders on my 2018 Crosstrek with CrossClimate 2 tires. By the time drove 15 minutes home I knew that there I didn't like what I was experiencing with the CrossClimates. They were noisier, jittery, mushy and didn't track like the Geolanders. I wrote it off as being new. They did an alignment and wheel balance during installation. I am not an aggressive driver but the interstate on ramp that I use all the time I could enter at 50mph and stay at 50. I had to brake use the Michelins. Also I lost 3 mpg compared to the Geolanders.
