Tires MICHELIN or NITTO

Nitto NT01, pretty good overall and out of all the tires I’ve stretched they’re the only ones that actually held up

I’ve been wanting to upgrade the tires and finally pulled the plug and got some nitto ridge grapplers in 265 70 17 on the stock TRD Sport wheels and stock suspension, no rubbing it all fits perfect and looks great. Performs too, testing them out almost immediately and I’m definitely satisfied.

I’ve got those on my model S and they have held up as good or better than the Michelins and look great and ride smooth and quiet.

I always go for the Michelin Pilot 4 tires since they are consistently rated and reviewed the best.

Mich Cross Climate 2 if they are ever going to touch snow but also perform exceptionally well in rain. Not cheap, considered a luxury tire, but very quiet. They have a snowflake on them, but I see people all over New Mexico use them year round probably because of monsoon season. If you ever wished for a tire you would not have to change when winter is over this is it.

Michelin cross climate 2 is the master all season tire. People who say otherwise clearly don’t drive in the snow. It competes or even beats some snow tires in stopping distance. Oh, they are fun as hell to drive on. Ignores big puddles and slush outright.

Having run continental DWS 06s for many non-summers. And this past season trying the competing Michelin. My perception is that the Michelins are quieter on rough surfaces, chip seal etc...

Michelin Pilot Sport 4 All Season. Second best all-season tire I’ve found. The best was the Vredestein Hypertrac, and it’s 20% cheaper than the rest.

Our CrossClimates after being fitted mid-2020. The outers are at 3mm, and the inner 4mm. Over 30k miles. Seems acceptable to me. Ours are on a Freelander 2/LR2, so a relatively heavy vehicle.

I personally didn't like Michelin tires when I was a tire technician, but I won't discount their strengths. The biggest problem with Michelin tires is dry rot, I don't recommend them if the car sits for long periods outside.
