Tires MICHELIN or WEST LAKE

Michelin last the longest, so you save money.

I ran the X-Ice 2s for a number of years and they were great.

Put on Michelin X ice snow on my vw golf for last season in saskatoon and with the snow we got it was so worth it.

Pilot sport 4s's. Love em but a bit pricey.

Both are really good tires, but the DWS are definitely giving up some warm weather performance in exchange for some limited cold weather usage (they are not going to replace a full-on snow tire). I live in the south, so that trade-off would not be worth it on my R--I freaking love the wet/dry grip of the PS4s, it is better than the PSS (which was a great tire in its own right).

Michelin Premiere A/S tires work very well in light, heavy and even blizzard snow conditions (as good as any conventional tire does on ice).

I put Michelin Defenders on my car, I needed a fairly durable all season tire for the Michigan roads. Plus the warranty on them is something insane like 80,000 miles. I did notice a small drop in fuel efficiency, but the flip side has been that it's nigh impossible to slide or skid (I've tried, trust me) with them.

I run Michelin Pilot Super Sports. They are FANTASTIC. I love them.

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

Dude. Ran the michellins, ran the Kumhos and twice have run Dunlop SP5000s .. run the dunlops. They're sub $100/tire, grip much better than the kumhos both wet and dry, take longer to wear and are just all around a better tire. Far better than the michellins, for a fraction of the price.
