CT Tyres

[Ian J. Parsley]

There was a very interesting thread recently on best tyres for an NX. 

Any thoughts on the CT? Has already done 20k and will likely need to do at least that again.

My CT had Dunlop blue response when I got it - new on the front, no idea how old the rears were.  I did 27K and then replaced all 4 with Michelin Energy Saver+ 

They perform better than the Dunlops in the rain and were cheap as chips from Costco.  10K in they still look pretty new so I guess they will last a good few miles - 25 - 30K on the fronts

They were rated B for economy, A for grip and 70dB

Link is a bit old, but gives some interesting comparisons 

I've heard lots of positive feedback on the Michelin Cross climate's

I'm a fan of the Mitchelin Cross Climates. Detailed thread here on how they have been performing:

Yes, Michelin Cross Climates and Dunlop Sport Maxx RT are very good. I don't think you can get better tyres for the CT than these two at the moment.
