Tires MICHELIN or OEM Subaru

I’ve got a 2013 Ford Taurus limited, and I’ve got the crossclimate 2’s on her. Beat tires I’ve ever had. They’re a little expensive, but they’re well worth it. They’re designed to push snow and rain away from your vehicle. Stoping power even in the snow is great.

I have the Michellin Defender LTX. Good grip, but definitely a better tire than my west lakes I had before.

I just traded in those Accords this month for '22 Sport 2.0T's that came stock with Michelin Primacy MXM4. Night and day difference on the road noise and it absolutely gives it a more comfortable ride.

I feel like a broken record with this one, but I highly recommend the Michelin PS4S or PS4AS. They made my accord feel a whole lot more connected to the road, and the All Seasons handle Wisconsin winters just fine.

If you can afford it, Michelin is worth it in the long run. They’re the only tire I know that lasts longer than the warranty period based on Consumer Reports.

I was going to replace with the same tire but decided to try the Michelin AS4. I would observe the following :

Dry grip - Michelin is better feel and grip around corners

Wet grip - not scientific but think the DWS is marginally better

Road feel / noise / ride quality - I like the Michelins slightly better

This year has been crazy, I’m into three sets of Michelins 2xPS4S on the 981 and 911 plus a set of PSS on the BMW

Selling the SS was a god send for this. It ate a set of PS4S's every 3 months. 16 tires went to it every year, then the Lotus took a set, so before the E38, that was 20 tires a year.

+1 for Michelin Pilot Sport 4s. Had the Cup 2’s on my PP2 (305 front and rear), they lasted 7,500 miles, lots of grip but no grip when cold or damp. Switched to PS4’s currently with 21,000 miles, and probably another ~10,000 left in them. Much better all weather performance, and they had ~90% of the grip of the Cup 2’s. Also added benefit of a slightly softer ride due to a softer sidewall.

Now have a 2014 mustang gt with michelin as3+ and they were decent ..even though they were worn down ..got as4 when they came out around I think June 2020? Felt good on the rears . But I guess like all tires take a bit warming up when cold . Felt some slipping only 4k miles in...but I am a lead foot ..understatement as well.
