Good tire recommendations for 2023

What tires do you guys recommend? I'm in Michigan so I'll have to go with all season tires with good grip. Currently running Goodyear eagle rsa and they're pretty good but looking to upgrade.

+1 for Either DWS or Michelin Pilot All Season 4, which ever you can get cheaper.

I have the Michelins since I got a great deal on them(stock sizing) and for all seasons they have a surprising good level of grip in the dry.

Best tire I have ever used yet on my G is the Michelin CrossClimate 2's. Excellent ride quality and amazing traction. Its classified as an all weather tire. Probably makes winter tires irrelevant. You will not be disappointed! Just keep in mind they have a speed rating of H and they seem to decrease MPG by a small amount according to reviews.

Though tires are highly subjective. One will say a certain tire is amazing and another will say they are terrible. AWD on the G with the CC2's makes for an absolute beast in the snow, just crazy how good the traction is IMO.

I tried the Continental DWS 06+ and they were the worst tires I used on the G, they have a stupid high speed rating of W so they are extremely stiff and rode a like crap. An over-hyped tire IMO, just my 2 cents. My main problem with them was ride comfort, which some care about and others don't. I used the Michelin A/S 3+ when I had the stock brakes and they had good traction but also had a poor ride quality. When I went from 17 to 18 my ride quality actually improved with the H rated tires, so just some food for thought!

Ya the Michelin pilots are a favorite to most. I never heard of the DWS till now, they seem amazing based off reviews.

Oh wow, I'm surprised you didn't like the DWS since almost everyone has positive opinions on them, I personally never tried em so I cant state my opinion on them. I'm definitely going to check out the crossclimates as well since my G is awd as well, thank you.

Just my 2 cents, and like I said, peoples opinions on tires is very subjective. Some like a stiffer ride while others might like a softer ride, etc. I will say again the CrossClimate 2's are an incredible tire IMO, the ride quality and traction are exceptional. Some tires allow you to try them for 60 days and return them without issue I believe. Hope you find a set you like!

Yeah AWD with the CC2's is crazy, can tackle snow without issue. Lot of All season tires can handle light snow, whereas the CC2's are all weather (not all season) and are very good for slick conditions and heavy snow! I drove my G home from work when the highways weren't plowed and it just cut through the snow like nothing at an impressive speed.
