Tires MICHELIN or Pirelli

MICHELIN Tires

Panaracer T-servs as many have suggested are narrow/fast in the dry, but I prefer the fatter Michelin ProTeks that have a larger contact patch for the wet.

Pros: larger contact patch
Cons: narrow, fast in dry

If you're looking for an all around great summer & winter tire, I would recommend downsizing to 18" or 19" and getting the Michelin CrossClimate 2. Definitely not the best at dry acceleration or snow grip but overall an amazing tire at an affordable price.

Pros: amazing tire, affordable price
Cons: not best acceleration

I've seen similar sentiments online about Pirelli that didn't really match my experience. Most of my favorite driving sets of tires have been Pirellis. Not necessarily best by the numbers, but by how they felt on some of my more communicative cars on the road.

Pros: favorite driving sets

Michelin AT 2 LT tire. Load Range E of course. I have 2022 Silverado 2500 with a truck camper on its back full time for 2.5 years. 46k miles and they still looks almost new. Great balance between on and off road.

Pros: great balance, looks almost new
Mileage: 46000 km

Depends on the model. I’ve had some great experience with Pirelli Scorpions and the P Zero. Usually not my brand of choice but if nothing is available and they are I’ll run them. Definitely more of a Michelin PS2/C type for my sport cars though. I’m about 3k miles into a set of PZero 21” on my LR Discovery. They handle the weight of the vehicle and road conditions really nice, so far have no complaints.

Pros: handle weight, road conditions
Mileage: 3000 km

Honestly have no idea why anyone hates them but after giving up my OEM Yokohama Geolander for Michelin Defender 2's that had a weird vibration on the highway that the tire shop insisted wasn't from a bad balance, I returned those and got the Pirelli Scorpion AS Plus 3's. They ride MUCH better than the Defenders, which were one of the highest rated tires everywhere, and there is no weird vibe on the highway. My 22 CX-5 never rode so good.

Pros: ride much better
Vehicle: Mazda

I’ve had Scorpions on my car for ten years by now. When I had Michelins and Bridgestones they did not drive nearly as smoothly

Pros: smoothly drive

I had commander 2s on my V-Star 650 and commander 3s on my Road Star. They perform pretty similarly in my opinion. My only gripe with the 3s is that they get this harmonic resonance at certain speeds. I thought my engine was having a fit. Turns out it wasn't the engine, the 3s just like to hit that sweet spot and send vibrations in waves. It's hard to describe.

Pros: perform pretty similarly
Cons: harmonic resonance, vibrations
