Please recommend all season tires for my 2010 TL

Thanks

Since your profile says Atlanta, I'm guessing GA! Continental DWS06 are my favorite Ultra High Performance All Season tire.

Besides DWS06, also check out Pirelli Cinturator P7 AS+ and Pirelli Zero AS+

I'm in the same boat looking into tires for my 2010 TL. I've Blizzak WS 90 on extra set of wheels for my winter set. I'm looking for A/S tires and was confused among these :

Pirelli Cinturator P7 AS+
Bridgestone Turanzo Quiterack
MICHELIN PREMIER A/S

I'm currently not happy with my Michelin Premier - only got about 30K miles out of them. Have a broken belt, so they are pulling hard left and wobbling... Going to check the warranty but I think the tread is worn out. Not happy with the life, but performance was fine.

Now looking at Goodyear Eagle Sport. Has anyone run these on their TL?

Tirerack tested them and stated they aren't the best in the wet vs other cheaper tires. I'd honestly stick with the Continental DWS06 in your situation. Great snow abilities and good wet/dry abilities.

^^Thanks - looking at Tirerack. Looks like the Continental DWS06 is the lowest rated of the similar tires they tested. The Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ and Goodyear Eagle Exhilarate were their top choices.

Now not sure if the 45K mile warranty on the Michelin Pilot or the 60K mile warranty on the Premier is better... The Goodyear Exhilarate is new, so not sure what I think about that. I like my local Goodyear shop, but Costco has a great deal on the Michelin's right now.

Thanks for the suggestion guys, got the conti DWS06 and they look to be great tires, not driven enough to comment further

Noticed the front passenger side tire is running 3-4 psi higher than the rest, anything to be concerned. The sensor seems to be fine and it was not like this on my old Michelin tires. Thoughts?

I felt the tire and it doesnt feel much hot and the front tires are hotter than the rear , I guess that's normal because of the engine weight ?

Anyone can answer on my last question?

Agree with you. The Premier All-Season tires wear out fast, but good winter traction for an all season tire.

Went ahead and got the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ at Costco. My wife drove it home so I haven't driven it yet. She says its like a new car. Couldn't be happier. I will have to drive it to know what I think. But so far so good. Costco uses Nitrogen my last set never had Nitrogen but I did that to the original set when the car was new and got great mileage out of the stock tires. So, maybe that will help also.

Check the tire pressure with a gauge, not the TPS and then let air out and see if it stays that way. I have found that Nitrogen has less increase as the tire gets hot over standard air, so you might try that. My last set of tires, I had one that would lose air all the time, had to keep airing it up about once a week. Took it to multiple tire places and they could never find a problem with the tire.

by the way, your hand can not feel anything less than about a 5 degree temperature difference. You might try something more accurate.
