Tyre review for Michelin Pilot Sport 5 225/55R17 101Y XL
I am seeing that on my Mercedes W204 with bigger wheels, the edge tyres wear because of the factory geometry setup. Other big brand tyres usually last around a year to a year and a half, but these tyres have lasted me three years. These tyres are about 10-20% more expensive than other premium brands, but they also last two to three times longer than them, so they are worth the money. They provide good grip and traction in both dry and wet conditions. Ever since I have fitted these tyres, I have had less punctures. This could be a coincidence of course, but I have never had one after over three years of usage, so it could be true.
