Tires MICHELIN or RIKEN

MICHELIN Tires

Winter tires? Why not winter homologated (Canada) all season Michelin Crossclimate 2. They are better than the Pirelli PZero my 2022 came with and I don't see a difference on snow compared to my last Vredestein winter tires!

Pros: better than Pirelli PZero
Cons: 80% as good as winters

The PS4S that replaced the OEM Bridgestone Potenzas on my 370Z are lasting about twice as long, are quieter and are as grippy. The only drawback to this particular tire is its less stiff sidewall, making the steering less precise.

Pros: long lasting, quieter, grippy
Cons: less stiff sidewall
Vehicle: Nissan

I just put on the Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4s through discount tire. My all in cost was $1,100.

They are a great all around tire. The grip feels much better than the OEM tires. The biggest downside in my opinion is a ~4% drop in range. I’d prefer having the performance and safety over slightly longer range.

Pros: great all around tire, better grip
Cons: drop in range

I run Michelin X-Ice studded tires here for our Northern Finland winters.

On snow covered back roads, it might as well be dry, that's how good they are. Stopping, cornering, no issues at all while driving normal to lightly spirited.

Pros: good on snow, good stopping

I've driven a friends' Tesla that had Continental tires and followed a few advices on Reddit and changed them for Michelins... the difference is day and night: grip is better, road noise is noticeably lower.

Pros: better grip, lower noise

I would highly recommend - Michelin X-ICE Snow Blizzak WS90 Either are phenomenal tires for snow & ice. I have used multiple Blizzak WS series for my EVO 8/9/10s and STi's, and used the X-ICE on the last 3 STi's I had. I plan on using the Michelin X-ICE on the factory wheels on my 2022 GTI S, because I like the better cornering stability of the sidewall vs. Blizzak...the Blizzak's have an extremely soft sidewall, and if you corner too hard it feels like the tires just want to roll over. Remember to take them off once it gets above 40 degrees otherwise you are going to wear the tread out quickly because the cell material is so soft.

Pros: phenomenal tires for snow
Cons: Blizzak soft sidewall

I had the AS3+ on my MK7 and loved them. Car handled like it was on rails. The snow performance was not amazing. I just replaced them with the new AS4 and the turn in and handling doesn’t feel as crisp. It’s more mushy than the old version.

Pros: car handled like rails
Cons: mushy turn in

one of the michelins on my car blew at about 14,000 mi. it had a slash/crack on the sidewall not covered by any warrenty......It could have been a slasher or road hazard but I had driven out of my driveway and down the road a couple of miles and then it blew.......if someone knifed it it seems it would have been flat before I left..........I don't recall any debris on the road that could've caused the cut........other than that they seemed ok....

Pros: seemed ok
Cons: blew out, sidewall crack
Mileage: 22530 km
