I swapped my G80 from PS4S to PS4AS in early October, which lets me send it on the \\~75% of winter days that are dry and cold, but no snow or ice.
Michelin alpins. Like sticky stuff to a blanket
Michelin x ice for all cars imo. Michelin is the only brand I have 1000% trust in
I recommend Michelin Cross Climates or Toyo Celsius.
pilot sport series tires are the truth. i put them on a regular golf and it was insane the difference they made.
Run flats suck if you care about performance but if you absolutely have to have them and want an all season tire the Michelin pilot 4 all seasons are decent.
I just put Nitto Motivo 365’s on 25’ TS yesterday. They are an ultra-high performance all-weather tire engineered for performance in dry, wet, and snow conditions. It provides all-season's usual dry and wet performance, enhanced with 3PMS-rated snow traction for true all-weather confidence.
Lately I really like the Michelin XIce series. I'm on my third set of these between me and my wife, and they're great for our typical winters. Awesome on ice, really good on wet roads, great handling and mileage on dry roads, and still better in deep snow than any all-season.
Picked up a new set of Cross Climate 2’s over the weekend. Handling is great, especially in the rain. Aesthetically, I think they look super cool and unique. They have an aggressive look to them.
That being said, I did not do my due diligence beforehand and let the guy at discount t*re give me the run down on them. One thing he failed to mention was the lack of efficiency they bring (not blaming him). In my first couple of drives I noticed my wh/mi to be well over 300 and in one instance on a 5 mile drive it was 395 wh/mi. Crazy! This is in comparison to my average of 252 wh/mi for the last 5k miles I’ve driven. It’s important to note that I like to accelerate fast and have had the heat on due to the cold weather coming in (Chicago native).
I wanted to see how much of a difference it made if I changed my driving habits so for the past 15 miles or so. I turned “chill” mode on and turned off the AC system and have averaged around 210 wh/mi. Nice to know that efficiency is still attainable just a bit sad that I will be losing 30%+ of range when driving how I normally do.
Hoping that with time they will break in and I will see that number go down a bit. I will update the thread as I put more miles on them.
I am over buying tires. My wheel setup includes NITTO NEO GEN FRONT: 205/40 REAR: 215/40. Tires are stretched. I had a wide body made and I’m now running-2.6 rear and -1 front to hopefully get longer life out of my tires.
