Tires MICHELIN or Vredestein

Michelin Pilot sport AS/4… I have a 2012 R56 with 199K miles on it and am on my 4th set of Michelins

(Just put in the AS4last week) The Best tires out there!

I swear by Pilot Sport 4’s. They’ve never once let me down. They won an award for best tyres for hot hatches also.

Michelin PS4. The ride quality and grip is completely different between that and the PZEROS.

When SHTF I use Michelin Snow Grips. I have used these 3 times for about 30 mins each in about 4 years. our Michelin X-Ice tires worked great.

Replaced factory Continental tires with Vredestein Quatrac Pros, which are infinitely better.

I just bought the Michelin CrossClimate2 tires for my ‘21 ID.4 and I really like them. They ride quiet and smooth. The car handles better and I couldn’t be happier.

Canada here; I run Michelin Pilot Alpin winters on my Clubman JCW, but only the one set of rims because steel wheels won’t fit over my larger brakes and I’m too cheap to buy another set of “proper” rims.

I use those exact tires. Unless you’re doing something crazy, they’re really good. I’ve driven them in horrible winter weather to very rainy summer days on the autobahn. They’re the best I’ve ever had.

I warrantied my OEM set (replaced at 14k miles) and never contacted michelin myself, just went to discount tire and inquired about it with them. As for the tires wearing out after 14k miles: I did do some occasional aggressive driving, but nothing too out of the ordinary. Evenly worn all around and rotated every 5k.

The o.e. tires where Continental Conti's but these results are from the present Michelin's. I didn't have the Conti's on long and unfortunately I never closely watched the MPG before going to the Michelins. the Conti's were slippery feeling and I see they are rated LRR, which I knew nothing about at the time. The mpg dropped w/ the Michelins... especially with lower pressure.
