Seriously???
 Not sure the analogy fits in this case. I don't plan on drag racing although I have been known to hit some curves with 100Mph gusto. During that time The X was shipped with Michelin MXV4's and they handled my driving excursions with no excuses.Quote:

So far I've tried the following on my X:
Michelin - Summer tires (20") Pirelli Ice&Snow - all year (winter for me) tires (19") Nankang - Summer tires (20") As for the best summer tire it's a no brainer between above mentioned....the Michelins are No1 and I've used them in +50 (Dubai) heat and the low 20s Scandinavian summers, no noise, amazing grip and work very well in case of rain. My current winter tires, the Pirellis, are Very good. The grip I have during heavy snow fall is surreal...I've pulled countless poor souls up the hill where I live (including 4x4s!) These type of tires are not high performers on Ice though but the same goes for any other brand...studded tires are the rulers in this area. I've never had issue with them on ice though...just be sensible and drive with care. As for the Finish brands mentioned in this thread, they are indeed VERY good. I've had both on my old E36, E39 and E46...look no further if you get them. The Nankangs....I don't want to talk about it.

I have all seasons on my 911 and Macan turbo form 50 to 40 wide tires.....they have come a long way.
I have used most all the tires listed including the Dualer....the Pirelli Verde is FAR better. Check them out on the web and tests. When I put them on my 02 4.4 the tire dealer never used them, he said he couldn't believe the difference. The truck will turn better, handle better, much quieter and smoother. I don't mean to rant about them but they were much better than any other tire on the X5 that I've used.
