Tires MICHELIN or OEM Audi

These tires are great in you live in bad weather state. Drive a lot of very bad weather. They probably louder. More comfortable ride.

Yep, these tires are *amazing* in the snow, and great the rest of the time, too.

Amazing tire, and great treadlife compared to the Michelins. Just not as sticky for corners :/

I also have had bad experiences with conti tires both on my 2012 CC and my 23 Arteon. In both which I've owned since new the michelin pilot sports have been phenomenal.

I had both road 6 and rosso 4 on my zx6r and i noticed a small difference between the two in terms of grip riding hard through curves the road6 felt good, the rosso only slightly better . Not really enough for me to justify getting rosso 4 again for now.

I run Michelin power 6.

3k miles and they look brand new.

Michelin; been caught in rain dumps on long trips and the michelins were fabulous. Solid in the dry and i felt safe in the wet as well.

I decided to try out Michelin x ice snow tires this year. They’ve been great. My EN with these snows is much better in the snow than my previous forester with all seasons.

Used these on my explorer. Had to replace 3 in the first 3 months. After that, had no problems for 4 years. Had some on my f150, and swapped them for some nitto grapplers and wished I didn't. 95% of my truck driving is on the freeway. They are just so loud and the mpg is 2 to 3 mpg less. The defenders did so much better in the snow on paved roads.

I hated my geolanders and was so glad to get rid of them. True that my only off roading is forest roads but I have a set of Michelin defenders that takes on everything from dry slalom’s to loose forest road hills and snow with quiet confidence.
