Tires MICHELIN or Sailun

When I got my car last December, I ran the factory Yokohamas for the winter since they were brand new and it was already almost January. This year I bought a set of Michelin X-ICEs on steel rims. It's the first time I've ever been able to afford winter tires, and I definitely feel a difference compared to all-seasons.

The great white north here.  Excellent traction in snow, and pretty good on ice.   The benefits in wet and dry traction over normal winters for the times when it's not extreme conditions outweighs having dedicated winter tires. At least where I'm at.

Also there are better summer tires out there, I recommend the Michelin pilot sport 4s or the new Continental that recently came out, they have amazing performance and last a long time.

I would also recommend looking at the Nokian one and Michelin defender2.

The michelin defender 2 is rated for 70 or 80k miles, and is generally very quiet.

Upgrade them to michellin pilot sports all season worth every penny. More grip for that torque!

I have just about 10k miles on my Sailun ERange and I have found them to be a great purchase. I noticed better traction in rainy/wet conditions and a slight decrease in noise. I just need to experience some snow and ice to see how they do.

If you run 17 inch, go for 215/45R17. Get the Michelin Pilot sport 4s or 5, Goodyear Eagle F1 Asym 6, or Conti Sportcontact 7/extremecontact (depends if you're in EU or US). Those are the best allround tires you can get. 215/45 offers a bit more contact and a bit more comfort

I recently changed tires (Michelin Pilot AS4) and within a week I got a nail in one which developed a slow leak 2-3 psi per day. In this case topping it off did make the TPMS light go away by itself without needing to press the TPMS button.

These Primacys should be recalled from Michelin or at a minimum they should cover the costs to replace/remove foam balance etc.
