Tires MICHELIN or YOKOHAMA

Selling the SS was a god send for this. It ate a set of PS4S's every 3 months. 16 tires went to it every year, then the Lotus took a set, so before the E38, that was 20 tires a year.

+1 for Michelin Pilot Sport 4s. Had the Cup 2’s on my PP2 (305 front and rear), they lasted 7,500 miles, lots of grip but no grip when cold or damp. Switched to PS4’s currently with 21,000 miles, and probably another ~10,000 left in them. Much better all weather performance, and they had ~90% of the grip of the Cup 2’s. Also added benefit of a slightly softer ride due to a softer sidewall.

Have an SL5 and upgraded to Zipp 303 firecrest just because it was such a good deal, $1,400 delivered. I went with Michelin Power Road and very happy

If you don’t do a lot of spirited driving the Michelin Cross Climate 2 have served me and I live in NJ. They are quiet and track really nice. Plus the 60,000 mile warranty is a plus. They come in both H & V ratings. I run them on my 2009 2 Door Rabbit S.

I have the Michelins AS3's on my 18 Jetta SEL and of course I'm down south, but they are like chewing gum, very sticky...I'm impressed so far...

my second set of 205 50 r16 Ascends are doing great at 176k on my similar 2015 EX. Love those tires.

Love Michelins. I will replace the 18"Pirellis with Michelins when they wear out on my mk7 gti.

I love my Geolandar's which came with the car. They do everything well. I do a lot of driving 10 to 40 mph over the speed limit. I would not hesitate to get them again. People always criticize whatever tires that came with their new cars but in this case not true.

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

My newish Michelin Defenders did that.
