Tires MICHELIN or WEST LAKE

I ran Alpin 4s and 5s on my F80. Upstate NY, drove through some pretty sketchy road conditions completely fine

I used Michelins X-Ice snow tires on my F80. Highly recommended.

Only have experience with the Michelins but i will say they had great performance throughout the life of the tire

I went Michelin AS4, and they hold their performance at a big temp and condition range

I ditched the run flats and switched to Michelin cross climate 2, and that improved the ride quality significantly over stock.

If you deal with snow and don't want dedicated snow tires the CrossClimate2 is a great choice. I put them on last month and took a slight range hit but they have done great in a couple storms as well as longer trips to warmer climates.

They really are amazing tires.

I have the cc2s on my highlander and camry. They get about 45k miles on them. I have driven them on gravel and grass fields. Where they excel in my opinion is when you hit a deep puddle unexpectedly at high speeds. You don't lose control. Also, very good on slushy/icey roads and in the rain.

Will just note my experience as it's been about 1-2k miles: To me, on the road new they are slightly slippery. Can't explain it but I personally don't mind it. This was in 40-50 degree temps before it dropped. Was breezing at 80+ weeks later taking the interstate from one side of PA to the other. 28-35 degrees out. They seem to ride better colder. And lastly, from prior reviews, you will lose about 2 mpg from the tires.

My experience is they are noisy and don\u2019t wear evenly unless you rotate religiously every 3000-5000 miles. I drive a 4WD truck, but I find the Michelin Defender M/S2 to be a better tire.
