Tires MICHELIN or SUMITOMO

I purchase michelin tires because they are used on airplanes, the space shuttle, and formula one cars (formerly).

And of course better tires - upgraded to Michelin Premiers for best suite of AS characteristics.

I bought Michelin PSS due to everyone online telling me to and HOLY SHIT. Best tires ever

If you don't need deep snow traction, go with Michelin Pilot Alpin PA4. I run them on my sports cars. Excellent cold weather and rain traction. Quiet. Good in light snow and slush.

Xice3 for me. Giant difference.

+1 to the Nokian's if you just need one tire. Personally, keep the stock tire and get some snows for winter use. Been using the Michelin X-Ice3's and they are fantastic and a hell a lot cheaper than the comparible Hakka R series.

I chose these tires because I put them on my 2016 Tucson last year and they are phenomenal.

The Sumitomo HTRs are pretty good. Either the A/S P02 or the Z III. The Z IIIs are a bit sportier, and the P02s are solid all seasons with a 500 treadwear rating and a W speed rating. They also grip impressively well for a set of fairly cheap all seasons.

The AS remind me of all of my Pilot experiences in the wet. But I am cautious when probing limits on public roads; I have yet to experience these in the wet on roads that I know well. I really want to feel how these break loose - sudden or gradual - after loosing traction on wet roads. But they do continue to impress me, far beyond the Pirellis.

I have them on my 86. The sidewalls are OK, not great. They do leave something to be desired as far as cornering, as they seem to break loose with little warning.
