After reviewing the comments out here, I went with Michelin Defender 2’s and couldn’t be more pleased so far (2000 miles). I picked up about 3mpg (36.9!) in town and up to 6 more. They handle well in rain or dry, are relatively quiet.
I've had the Michelin Crossclimate 2 for the last few years. Great tires. I've driven them in -55 fahrenheit with snow and ice to 110 fahrenheit, rain storms and so on with no issues. The only con is that they are a bit loud on the highway.
I am on my second pair of Cross Climates and love them. Great traction on gravel, wet pavement and even is snow. Great mileage at highway speed of 30mph in my 2015 Forester. Only downside is they are a bit noisy.
We have the Michelin CC2s. They are great in dry weather and snow. I love that I don't have to swap snow tires on the car anymore.
Very happy with my Michelin Crossclimate 2s. Quiet, fuel efficient and very durable.
Inner rear tires were down to the cords so I needed new tires. Had an alignment done with the adjustable arms and wanted to go wider to fill out the rim and provide some curb protection.
No efficiency data yet but it's so smooth and quiet compared to the stock tires.
Brother, be realistic. Your Michelin Road 6 is no track tire. Far from a high performance tire that anyone should be running crazy high speeds on! That is 100% patchable and would be just fine for the life of the tire.
I have Michelin cross climate 2's. Been about 3, maybe almost 4yrs now. About 35k miles put on them. Maybe a bit more? Threads are still pretty good.
I've used them on track when I was starting out. 3350 lb awd 350 hp car. Chunking on sides. Not a track tire obviously but a great do-it-all.
The stock ones on my 23 AWD are not good either. I've kept tire pressure good, not driven it in any funky ways and the tires are at 4/32" at 18k miles.
