"Michelin PS4 all season or PS4S, continental extreme contact"
"I only put Michelins on my cars."

"Michelin cross climate 2. Just around Great."
"This is the best bang for the buck tire. Perfect for the ILX."
"Michelin Pilot Sport 4 or Conti DWS06+"
"Continental 02's or PS4s are two of the best you're gonna find."

"Michelin PS4 all season or PS4S, continental extreme contact"
"I ended up going with the Continental DWS06+. I've been very happy with them so far. They make rain seem like it doesn't even exist."
"Continental extreme contact DWS06 Plus! Got a set on my 16 AWD TLX, and they're great all around."
"I drive a lot and these are the best tires I’ve ever had. They absolutely glide through the rain without hesitation."
"Been running them for 5 seasons now so it’s time to switch and will buy again."
"I've had excellent results with the DWS 06+, the original DWS 06, as well as the Sport 02."
"Seconding the Continental's. I've had mines for 4 years now and they still have like 5 MM of tread left."
"Michelin Pilot Sport 4 or Conti DWS06+"
"Been very happy with the Continental extremecontact dws06 plus on my M5."
"Continental ExtremeContact Sport 02 in 245/40/18 are $206 a corner."

Firestone

(17)
"Firehawk indy 500s are a tremendous value for a high performance summer tire. i have had 3 sets in different sizes, absolutely amazing dry performance and shockingly good grip in the wet."
"These are absolutely the best bang for the buck tire you can get in this category."
"Firestone Firehawk indy500's"
"For how I use the car, firehawks have been fantastic."
"Get the Firehawk Indy 500s."
"Firestone fire hawk Indy 500s are the way to go. They have better traction than any of the other “high performance summer tires”."
"I like Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 tires. I have them on a 2019 RDX ASpec SH-AWD."
"Honestly, I think the Indy 500’s you have on it now are the best bang for your buck."
"I'd stick with the Indy's or the DWS06, but you get less corning grip with those in exchange for much better rain performance."
"The only tires I ran for street. Track they were fine until you get quicker and quicker and def need stickier tires. But for just general street driving the Indy 500s are awesome"

"Another vote for Hankook Ion Evo AS. Have 2k miles on a new set on a MYLR. Work great."
"I second this tire"
"I just replaced the original tires with the Hankooks. These are great, quiet tires. Highly recommend them."
"Better tires way less road noise. Also more efficient. Hankook Evo or the other stock tires Tesla come with is what you want."
"Tire life, will be hankooks or falkens."
"Hankook R4s might fit the bill"
"I’ve been personally running some Hankook Ventus V2 Concept2s, these have been pretty solid every day performance and fairly cheap too."
