Tires MICHELIN or OEM FORD

Based on store inventory and ratings, I’m going with Michelin CrossClimate2 since they are available today.

I recently got the Defender LTX MS2 and was deciding between the Toyo AT3 and the Defenders. Since I drive 99% on highways, with an annual off-road camping trip and a few winter snow trips, I’m thrilled with my choice! The tires are very quiet and well-cushioned. The tread seems aggressive enough for my needs.

Michelin Primacy are good road going tyre imo, reputable brand, high quality and has lasted many many 1000s of miles.

I just installed Michelin pilot sport AS on my 11 328 and they are well worth the cost.

Absolutely. You don’t always need the best of the best for the type of tire you want (Michelin PS4 for example) but you absolutely want a good brand.

The CC2s are also awesome on wet/slush as the open v sipes resist hydro planing. Hit standing water with the BS Weather Peak, you better have a firm grip on the steering wheel. Michelin CC2S you hear the splash, but barely feel it in the steering wheel.

Michelin pilot sport SUV — changed the driving experience, really like em

I did it last winter (edit I may have had 245/60/r18, so taller tire but not wider). They fit, but you definitely cant go any bigger. Minimal clearance of shocks on the front wheels plenty of space at the back. Probably threw off the speedometer a bit, did slightly raise the vehicle.

All seasons are deceptive. Not *bad* in the snow but you’ll see on most of them “light powder” conditions - meaning anything other than a quick flurry will undermine performance. Get these + snow tires and swap during the winter or get a better tire rated for snow like Michelin Crossclimates or Nokian WR G4s.

all seasons won’t cut it. I had Michelin all-season pros whatever they’re called it didn’t do much so this year I bought some actual winter tires.
