Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 vs Fuzion UHP Sport A/S — Compared

“I just replaced my Michelin Pilot Sport AS4 that I had on my Impreza with the Michelin CC2s. I got 30k out of the PSAS4 tires, and neither the tire shop nor Michelin would honor the 45k warranty, even with regular rotations and even wear. I was not impressed with them in the snow, and I've had about 30 winters of driving with different all seasons. The CC2, on the other hand, were incredible. Such a good tire in my first winter that I bought a set for my daughter's Forester. A little noisier than the PSAS4s, but I'll take superior handling on ice/snow over the quieter tire.”

“Replaced tires with Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4, ride significantly improved My 2021 MYLR with 19" Gemini wheels ran over a screw in the tire sidewall and I had to replace the tire. I decided to replace all four tires since the tread was low anyway. I ended up replacing with the Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4. I was happy to find that the ride quality significantly improved after this. Just wanted to let folks know. Others have pointed out that there's a slight range efficiency hit and the tires don't reach all the way to the Gemini rims like the stock Continentals do. I find I don't care about these things and enjoy the ride quality improvement a lot. If I put the car in Chill mode now and drive others around, it's a much better ride experience for them on residential streets. The tires were a bit expensive, $1700 to replace all four including labor (in the SF Bay, a HCOL area) but I had to replace the tires anyway and the benefits were worth it to me.”

“Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 efficiency FOLLOWUP: On a recent drive, similar speed (70-80) and same route, I managed to get 290Wh/mi. Only notable difference was that the outside temperature was now 25-30C (instead of <10C) In trying to debug WTF tesla is doing, I started looking at the CAN bus. It appears that the car tries to keep the battery in the 30-35C range, so pretty much all that extra power usage was the car trying to maintain battery temperature in cold weather rather than the tires. Original post--------------------------------------------: just FYI about Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 235/45zr18 98Y I knew to expect a small efficiency hit, but this is almost as bad as when I towed a 2000lb boxy trailer. M3LR, stock 18" wheels and aero covers, no roof rack, no bike rack, driving in ~10-15C ~70-80mph funny part is that with the $0.46/kWh supercharging for the California portion of the road trip, driving a Tesla comes out more expensive than a 22mpg gas car @$4/gal :rofl: Read more”
