Tires MICHELIN or Vredestein

Pilot sport 4s always. Got them on my i30N and wouldn't touch anything else tbh.

I run ps4 S on my M3 and I find the wet grip to be more than fine

I have Pilot Sport 5s alround now and they're really excellent.

Better tires. Specifically yung Michelin Pilot Sport 5s. Sobrang BIG difference sa grip, handling & confidence on the road.

The Michelins are on my stock wheels and primarily for daily driving. However, I have tracked it probably 6 times now and they're still going strong. They're the only tires I haven't chunked, and I don't baby them. They seem to lose pace instead of keeping it and overheating. You should get 6+ days/weekends out of the PS4S as a beginner.

I run PS4S's on my 2019 mustang, which is a pretty heavy car. Intermediate HPDE. I have 6 days on my current set and expect 2-4 more days before they're totally thrashed. They are a superb beginner tire (lots of good feedback, predictable grip). I find the key to making them last is to not completely scorch them, I usually limit my sessions to 15-20 mins and always take 2-3 laps around the paddock to help them cool gently. Once they start getting greasy (you will notice both a change in feel and a drop off in lap times) its time to either come in or take a few cooldown laps.

PS4S is arguably the best beginner tire. It’s great for now. Driving at 7-8/10ths as you will be as a beginner for awhile, it will last at least half a dozen days probably more

PS4S is a great tire with 300 tread wear, you won't be beating any times but I get them to last 7+ track days on the M340 which I find hard to beat. They're not a dedicated track tire, however, if you're just starting I think it's a great choice as they're chatty, great grip and good longevity.

I am not disputing that RWD is better than FWD during acceleration or climbing a hill on a car with 50:50 weight distribution and I did say that I had a hard time putting the power down with only 120hp in my e-Golf. This being said, on the move, I am not sure that RWD would be better for changing direction without immediate oversteer (fun at low speed, no so much on the highway).

Can’t stand them. Michelin Defender LTX would be my choice on the XC90
