New tire time - anything quieter than the Michelin Primacy for 19"s?

[meomyo]

the conti LS was my second choice to try. I just put on some nokian g4( if i didnt read good reviews and just went on looks i likely wouldnt have bought them as they dont look like conventional tires) and they are impressive so far as they are LRR tires and very quiet and smooth. I am tired of wearing out snows here in colorado so am trying these out for all year(no sep snows on rims)- Had to replace the goodyears as they were under 3/32 so dangerous. Wish i could have waited another month or 2 but taking a trip next weekend so needed tires.
If nokians arent avail near you the conti LS looked real good. 70k warranty i think. the g4 is 60k.

All-season tires...aren't. Here's why all-weather tires are the most convenient winter driving option - Nokian Tires Community

My 2016 70D (now 75D) is just over 3 years old and due for its first set of tires. It came with Goodyear Eagle Tourings (245/45R19 98W), and they lasted almost 29K with 3/32 left on them. I'm not a tire expert by any stretch. I think the Goodyears did okay and were reasonably quiet but I really don't have a point of reference.

I'm shopping around locally and doing research to see if there's anything better/quieter. I don't need anything that handles extreme weather/snow as I don't go very far outside of the SF Bay Area.

Michelin's seem to be the biggest recommendation in various threads, either the Primacy 3 or MXM4.

Tesla is recommending MXM4's and their price is reasonable ($230 ea + installation) but no hazard warranty offered, as people already know.

I've checked with two local shops, one is recommending Continental Extreme DW06s, and another Firestone Firehawks. But it may be due to their stock or some salesman bonus.

Tirerack.com is listing two different Michelin Primacy 3 ZP's, but no straight Primacy 3's. Are these the same as discussed in this thread?

Is the MXM4 a good option still compared to the Eagle Tourings?

Thanks in advance

If quiet is your primary objective, you might wanna check out the Bridgestone Turanza QuietTrack. It’s got great reviews, especially regarding noise level. I’ve never been a fan of Bridgestone, but I’d consider buying these tires.

I ended up getting the Michelin MXM4's at America's Tire for $215 plus installation. Total bill out the door was close $1150 with tax and road hazard insurance.

yes if you are in cali no need for winter driving so likely a good fit: they were on my radar but wear too fast on teslas. Are they XL defined tires?(xtra load)-

Portland OR service center quote (yesterday)

$1055 for either the Mich Primacy MXM4 or Goodyear Eagle Touring . 19"

$186 for alignment

 

[ChrisJ]

My new MXM4's are running great. As quiet if not better than my original Eagles.

One tip, if you're due for a service and you have a service plan I think alignment is included. So worth trying to time it.

just be aware from my research that michelins wear quicker then others .

just did A 3000 mile trip on the new nokian g4's. They were very quiet and handled well in rain so far.

After two sets of Michelin Primacy MXM4s (36K and 30K miles respectively) on my S85D 19", I decided to try something different. (These tires were great while they lasted, I was just hoping for the lasting part to be a little longer.)

I'd seen a few positive reports here with the Pirelli Cinturato P7 All Season Plus so I had a set of those put on. So far so good. Subjectively, they don't seem any noisier than the Michelin Primacy MXM4s. We did a 900-mile round trip from NorCal to SoCal and back with them, and didn't notice anything unexpected with respect to noise or energy consumption.

Any rain experience with them yet, Bruce?

I find the Michelins do very nicely in rain (and snow!), but yeah, they wear quickly.

Hehe...I’m in the SF Bay Area, and it’s still summer weather here, so no.

[BrownMS]

do you need all seasons in fla?

No but there is an additional 100 off for them. But still might end up getting some other michelins

the mxm4's are all seasons also

I'm mainly looking for a long lasting tire that will perform in the rain
