Tires MICHELIN or NITTO

As a person with 245/30/19 michellin pilot sport 4s on my passat, i approve of your car.

The D2s are doing better on dry surfaces and who knows if they'll see snow.

I went to Michelin Defender, they weigh a bit more but still do well in the snow/ice and get better mileage on the highway.

i love my pilot sport a/s 4 specifically for rain. my stock tires had zero grip. they also have lasted a very long time

I loved the Michelin Pilot Sport 4s they’re great but come with a big price tag, I’d highly recommend the extreme contact sports.

Michelin xda2 holds up pretty good on our hydrovacs running in mud and rock

I have the defenders, and I love them. The stock tire hydroplaning is gone. Mpg good, traction good and wear like iron.

All I buy anymore is Michelin. X-Ice Snows on the factory wheels and 4S on the summer wheels. I’ve never had another brand offer the same level of grip while lasting forever.

Previously I had Michelin Defender xlt. While I would prefer a more pavement oriented tire the Coopers where the only load range E tires I could get on a 3 day turnaround when I needed them.

I liked the Michelins but the xl load rating was just too squirmy while towing a 7000lb trailer.

Had the legendary Michelin CrossClimate 2 on my HiHy. They sucked in the heavy, wet snow that I drive in, especially when it's 4" deep or more... the tires just spin (Nokian WR's do better in this regard). Need to put into Trail mode to get unstuck. They are suited for after the plows come through.
