Tires MICHELIN or Shinko

Michelin City Grip 2 100/80r16

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.

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.

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.

Defender of course! I’m (Ioniq 5) in my second set of Defender. Very strong grip.

Michelin M/S2 has been my go-to highway tire for the taco

You’re use case screams Michelin Defender. Fantastic long life tire with good traction and can handle some dirt too.

BUT Michelin tends to not develop much road noise even when old.

I went to 18 inch wheels and Michelin Pilot Sport tires hoping that it would help. Improved the ride and reduced my stress over blow outs on the 20 inch OEM tires, but didn\u2019t fix the noisy suspension.

I’ve had these for about 18 months / 15K miles on my 18’ AWD LX and I can’t say I’m a fan. Although they are amazing in the rain. I ironically wish for rain sometimes for longer trips because they drive SO much better on wet pavement compared to dry.

- The road noise is ridiculous on an AWD model.

- They’re wearing very fast for tires with only 15K.

- Drop in fuel efficiency once installed (~2MPG drop).

- Rocks, twigs, and everything else you can imagine get stuck in the grooves and can lead to a rough ride.
