Tires MICHELIN or SUMITOMO

I have no complaints with my Pilot Alpin 5’s. Two seasons.

Am facut uber o perioada. Am avut in acea perioada Crossclimate 2 care au dus onorabil orice drum pt 50.000km. Cand m-am hotarat sa le schimb am zis sa incerc si Nokian Seasonproof. Nu exista efectiv comparatie. Nokianurile noi erau mai slabe decat Michelinurile vechi si uzate la toate tipurile de drum. Michelin de acum\u2026 nu mai fac experimente.

Michelin does have all season Pilot Sport tires. I have these on my A4 Quattro and they are amazing, as were the previous versions I had before. I had plenty of tread on the previous tires with 35k miles, but they were replaced because of a hole in a sidewall. The grip is excellent in dry, rain, and cold weather and they have little road noise.

I just had mine upgraded from OE to Michelin Crossclimate2 with the $80 Michelin discount. So far so good.

Another option is to run four-season tires like the Michelin CrossClimate 2. Those are not as good as dedicated winters, but do have the mountain/snowflake symbol and can be left on year 'round. My daughter in AA takes that approach and seems happy with the compromise.

I am running Michelin crossclimates year round.

Those ain't snow tires. Get some Michelin ice x 3

At 70K miles I went with Michelin Pilot Sport A/S4 tires. That was about 7,000 miles ago and they are by far the best tires I have had on this car.

I switched from the factory turanza summer tires to Michelin snow tires and saw my average drop by 0.5. I usually see 2.1-2.5 with snow tires vs 2.9 with summers.

Michelin AS are at least 10% worse efficiency than most OEM tires. So it's a double whammy, those new tires are probably 15% worse than the summers. Triple whammy with winter and it's a total 35% lost range. ... I'm in the minority but I don't buy Michelins and the 10% range hit they come with.
