Tires MICHELIN or OEM Chevrolet

The past couple of sets I've had were Michelin X-Ice and they've been excellent. The X-Ices last for 40k or something.

More sidewall rubber gives a softer ride and absorbs winter roughness better, so a good idea. I went 29 inch 235/60R18 x-Ice for even more rubber and they are great.

Want a real out there suggestion. The 2017 Chevy Bolt EV. Kind of a rare car. But my dad had one and it was an absolute blast. 200 hp and 266 ft/lb torque that was *instantly* available made the car way faster than you would have ever guessed. Once you ditched the terrible economy tires on it, it handled incredibly well because all the weight was way down low. It was also really well balanced because, while front wheel drive, most of the weight was in the middle - so it didn't really act like a typical front wheel drive car.

Once I put Pilot Sports onto my V40 that thing just came alive. It didn't have crazy power obviously but you could use all of it, all the time and I kept up with or outran much quicker BMWs, Mercs and VWs because it could handle corners (especially once I got the hang of heel-toeing).

Been on the Defender m/s2 for 26,300mi. Still at 44mph average speed. 2.25mi/kwh. They have better steering response and overall grip than A/T which anyone would expect, quieter but not silent, lacking in the looks department, wearing better than Pirellis but faster than the Michelin treadlife prediction. Tire noise has not gotten worse as they age, possibly quieter but I deal with a lot of wind noise so not sure.

Got the Michelin 275/60/R20 for the past 10k miles and getting good efficiency. Ride was comfortable as well.

Just did the same switch myself and it’s the best ever.

I just bought winter tires and went for the Michelin X-Ice snow tires. We'll see how they work out once the snowy weather gets here, but they've been well reviewed.

I drive the Michelins. All-Season tyres are winter tires that also work well in summer. Don't worry about the winter performance it will be good. For example the Cross Climate 2 has slightly lower aquaplaning test results than comparable 'summer' tyres.

This is standard for Michelin summer tires. They're not recommend for track use since they overheat and start to chunk.
