I need Tires...What do I pick?

Hello all,

I have a 2014 Ford Mustang v6. I am finally coming to the end of the factory tires at about 40,000 miles.

Therefore, I need to get new tires before the upcoming winter. I live in St. Louis, MO and so i need an all season tire.

Unfortunately, I do not have the ability to have a dedicated snow tire/summer tire combo, so therefore an all season is necessary.

What have you all put on your cars once the factory tires are done?

Any and all suggestions are greatly appreciated. (just keep in mind where I live and that I will have to deal with some snow)

Thanks for your time.

Which wheels do you have? We have the Cooper RS3-As on our 2015 Focus SE and I've been happy with them for the 2300 miles we have on the car so far. They are well regarded around here (same with the S version - Summer tire).

Another good all season is the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3 but they're a lot more expensive than the Coopers.

Michelin Pilot AS3 - It sacrifices some snow capability (I'm told) but you get a great handling comfortable riding all-season tire that has a decent life.


Michelin's warranty is 6 yr/20k (on a square setup - staggered fitments have a 10k mileage warranty) for materials and defects with a 5yr warranty for ozone/weather checking (dry rot)


That said YMMV since a lot of people shop by price and a lot of people have trouble seeing the value in a Michelin.

I have the Michelin pilot as3 tires and I love them. I live in California but I have driven up to the snow and felt pretty confident. I like them a lot.
