I freaking love my Michelin LTX A/T2. I’ve got about 45K on them and they look like they’ll go another 30. So quiet and compliant.

Pros: quiet and compliant
Mileage: 72420 km

I can only talk about the X-Ice Snow and for only one season, its probably the best performing winter tire I've used and is rather quiet. They claim they'll outlast their major competition but I can't verify.

Pros: best performing, rather quiet
Cons: longevity unverified

Yokohama Avid Ascend GT.

Here are some excerpts from reviews:

(1) [https://www.tiredeets.com/yokohama-avid-ascend-gt-review/](https://www.tiredeets.com/yokohama-avid-ascend-gt-review/)

"How is it over wet and slippery roads? As far as the Avid Ascend GT is good on dry tarmac, it might be even better on wet and slippery roads. Relatively, of course. I find the Yokohama to be outstandingly good in resisting hydroplaning – the car remains controllable even in puddles of water. Also, the advanced tread compound pays dividends on damp surfaces, where the Avid Ascend GT holds itself extremely well. Overall, this is one of the safest and easiest grand-touring tires to drive in the rain. . . .

"Is it comfortable and refined? You bet it is! This is one of the quietest tires I’ve tried recently, improving the refinement of almost any vehicle you put it on. That’s true even at very high speeds, and for cars that don’t have that much noise insulation. On top of that, the ride quality with a set of Avid Ascend GT tires will be sublime. Smaller imperfections on the road are almost completely eaten by the Yokohama, while the larger potholes are tempered with aplomb. This is perhaps the biggest reason why you would opt for a set of these tires – they are outstandingly comfortable over any surface you encounter."

Pros: resists hydroplaning, comfortable ride

YOKOHAMA Tires

Overall the Outback performed better than I expected with 4 occupants and a trailer, however I wouldn’t want to tow any more then 1500 pounds for the distance I traveled. Acceleration was obviously impacted but not as much as I feared, the 2.5i does have enough power for the load I was putting it under. At really high elevations and fairly steep grades I did have to decrease my speed to keep my RPM’s down

Pros: enough power for load
Cons: acceleration was impacted

The Michelin Road 5 and Road 6 have a "GT" version with an extra ply for heavier bikes. I have Road 5 GTs on my RT and Road 6 on another bike and they're pretty great.

Pros: pretty great

The sidewall split on one of the Michelin Primacy MXM4 on our 2021 Model 3 at about 12000km (only 7450 miles) so those Michelin Primacy MXM4s are not that great it seems.

Cons: sidewall split
Mileage: 12000 km
