Tires MICHELIN or Sailun

I switched to the Michelin Cross Climate 2s and they have substantially better traction than OEMs. You may have better options if you don't need the snow performance. The OEMs have notoriously poor traction, especially on wet pavement.

Is there a specific reason you have to get spiked tires? Bear in mind if you live in Bergen or oslo there is a fee to drive in the city, which can be quite expensive through the winter, unless you are driving up a mountain to a cabin or something i would reccomend spikeless, you should be able to get a decent set of michelin or goodyears for around 6k included a tire shop that balance them and put them on. Also to look at alternatives i would look at previous years higher rated models, those can be had for discounted price also

Michelin ps4 s4 are better than both. I much prefer them to the pirelli that came on the car.

Ice x are 95% as good but much better on regular pavement for when it isn't snowing as much. I usually chose the ice x for my car

I went from those same tires to Michelin PS4s and I'm very happy with them. I have no issues in the rain.

They were both originally Sailun Inspire 215/55R17 touring all-season. They replace with with a Sailun Inspire 215/55R17 XL. The XL has a different load weight and a different PSI. From my research online, this could be caused by the tire speeds not being the same and the tires being mismatched. Does this seem possible to you? I could call the tire place and ask if they'd honor a replacement because they put a non-matching, non-compatible tire on the car... It's essentially new as I've only driven maybe 500 miles max on that tire.

I gotta say the factory Michelin PS AS 4 on non z51 c8s are actually incredible. I can't believe how well they hook up for an all season.

I would say get studless snow tires (not all-seasons): Michelin X-Ice Snow, Bridgestone Blizzak WS90, or Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5.

I used them through last winter, which had some extremely icy periods. I had one sketchy incident, where I hit a patch of ice going about 5 mph and just could not stop, but I don’t think Blizzaks would have saved me there considering how slow I was already going. Other than that, they performed fine for me.

I bought these and I hate them. They’re so slippery on dry roads and are terrible in rain. I can’t corner AT ALL with speed. I’ll never buy these again and I don’t understand how so many people think these are great. Dangerous tire
