Tires MICHELIN or OEM Audi

If these tires are any good they are an incredible bargain.

For conditions like you’ll see in Ohio, I would not run these all year round. I think that’s too risky. If you want a single tire for all weather, get the Michelin Cross Climate 2.

I will cast my vote for the Michelin PS4S. I had a manufacturing defect on a set of Michelin's on my NSX. Upon my return they replaced all 4 tyres as the tread pattern had changed.

Yep. Mine went down too. Seems like 5 to 10%. But I love the tires. Very quiet. Do great in rain and snow.

Michelin city grips are elite and shouldn’t be in the same convo as the other two. They’re in a whole different bracket. Best tire you can get for the Navi hands down.

2020 highlander platinum here, original tires were shitty in Nova Scotia downpours. Got cross climate twos and won’t use anything else.

I lost <10% mpg on my 2009 HiHy when I went to the CC2. I figure 2-3mpg less isn’t that terrible if you drill down on the math and the added safety and in my case improved stance/looks is worth the small cost difference.

I had cross climate 2s in my previous vehicle and my van. I will be putting them on my Crosstrek as soon as the current tires wear out. They are pretty great tires.

Switching this week from Kumho Ecsta PS91 on 20" Induction wheels to Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 4 on 18" RTX Spider wheels. Will search for a phone app to plot accelerometer output and do a tit-for-tat comparison on a couple of bad local roads.

At first I thought they were decent but now at 20k miles they don't grip nearly as well, even with my AWD. I turned off traction control the other day and with a damp road (not raining) I did a 4 wheel burnout up to about 50 mph.
