Tires MICHELIN or SUMITOMO

MICHELIN Tires

I’d recommend Michelin CrossClimates. They’re quite good in the snow (3 peak rated) and in all weather situations. Quite a breakthrough in tire tech IMO.

Pros: good in snow

Think I'm going to get Michelin Cross-Climates in lieu of dedicated snows this year. Don't get much snow in NoVa, but I've always been happy to have winter tires both in the cold and for the few times it does snow. I've read an awful lot about the Michelins being almost as good as a dedicated winter tire in the snow, so I'll be interested to see how they behave -- they'll almost certainly be good enough for my needs.

Pros: good in cold, good in snow
Vehicle: Volvo V60

SUMITOMO Tires

I swear by Sumitomo Ice Edge tires. I've had three sets now on three different vehicles and other than a couple of nights when there was freezing rain, I've never had issues with them

Pros: no issues

I got Michelin Pilot Sport AS4. The responsiveness and grip I got compared to stock is insane, especially if they got a bit less pressure than asked by Mazda.

Pros: insane responsiveness and grip
Vehicle: Mazda 3

The overall best one is probably the Michelin CrossClimate2, which has excellent wet and dry traction in addition to its excellent winter traction.

Pros: excellent wet and dry traction

I just bought a set of Michelin Cross climate 2s for my Subaru Crosstrek. A specific winter-only set would be best, but a good all-season works too.

Pros: good all-season
Cons: bit pricey
Vehicle: Subaru

PS4s are incredible. They make any car they are on feel 800lbs lighter and handling nimbleness seems to come with.

Pros: incredible, handling nimbleness

My TLX came with Michelin Primacy A/S tires and they were very quiet . They were not grippy enough for my liking though, so I ditched them for the Continental DWS06+.

Pros: very quiet
Cons: not grippy enough
Vehicle: Acura TLX

On a subject unrelated to load ratings, the Michelin HX MXM4 are, well, to be brutally honest - they are total rubbish. Expect to have borderline dangerous hydroplaning performance when the tires get to 6/32nds and less. Wet traction will be very poor when the tires get below 4/32nds or so.

Cons: dangerous hydroplaning, poor wet traction
