Tires MICHELIN or Tesla

I bought a 20 year scooter with only 345 miles on it. It still had the original Pirellis and they were practically new. Of course I had to change 20 year old tires, but I put on Michelin City Grip IIs, and that was when I felt comfortable leaning.

I just put them on a new set of 18x8.5 forged wheels I bought for my 2022 VW Golf GTI Autobahn. We had a snow store two weeks ago and I was getting stuck because of the summer tires. So far since the snow storm we had rain storms, ice storms as well as a lot of snow that remained. All the snow that remained was where cars parked. The plows pushed the snow that way. A lot of cars were stuck and had to be dug out. But a bunch of snow remained. I was able to drive through in and out of parking spots with lots of snow like a tractor.

The stock conti's are garbage and wear out in 6-8k miles. I replaced them with Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 4's and they've been great.

Have had 2 sets of DWS - always a fan (on a E350 and 335xi with 450+ hp), Michelin Premier LTX (on wifes CX-5) - they're fantastic, Michelin PS4S on the 911 and Pirelli Scorpion Verde for my old grand cherokee. The DWS are great all around tires and the Premier LTX is just a great tire.

Michelins newest tire the X-Ice Snow which is made or nearly any vehicle out there, has a good amount of less traction when it comes to thick or a lot of snow. However, the ride quality of this tire is the best for any winter tire and well above most all seasons.

I’ve run Blizzaks on my 2014 Forester before, but I’m currently on my second year with a set of Michelin X-Ice and they’ve been great so far. The sidewalls on the X-Ice don’t seem to flex as much as the Blizzak so the car feels better in corners, especially when running on dry pavement.

X-Ice for me. A few reviews noted they did a bit better in slush, water, etc vs just deep snow so they make sense where I live.

Michelin x ice worked awesome for me.

PS4S are the best tires I’ve ever had but are a lot more expensive.

I bought 2 new front tires a year ago. I got the Michelin Pilot sport pros that people recommend on this sub reddit.

They seem fine
