Michelin - Primacy MXV4 or Michelin Pilot Exalto A/S? I currently have a set of exaltos they are running a promotional discount on those atm and I would like to know which is better on snow of the two since I live in mass and encounter snow, I've been told having snow tires is nice but it's not practical for me since I live in an apartment so there is no extra storage. I did a little price shopping and decided to try bj's wholesales, costco is cool but too far from me, Only benefit I could see from the primacy atm is that if something was to go wrong they would have them in stock whereas the exalto have to be ordered.

 

Continental Extreme Contact DWS

 

I actually heard great things about those but when I put in the specs of my 1997 stock rl on most websites I wont get it to show up because the dimentions or sizing does not match the stock rim.

 

I have the Hankook plus 2 all seasons tire, they're ok on dry road but when it wet is make lound noises. I had Michelin tires before and they're comfort and quite.

 

Michelin Hydro Edge (what I have now) is great in all weather, including snow. I love them.

I also recommend the Goodyear Assurance Comfort tread (cuts down on road noise dramatically).

I'd love to try the GY Assurance Triple Tread (great all season tire that works great in snow).

Check tirerack.com for reviews, many concur with my opinion of these tires.

Cheers!

 

I am using 225/50-17s Continental DWS on 2003 TL-S wheels and they look and perform very well.
