Michelin is known for manufacturing tires that are more quiet on the road than other name brands, and the Energy S8 is no different. Green X banding and diagonal intermediate tread blocks lower road noise and further enhance ride comfort. A Bead Tension Structure provides further performance throughout the speed range, as well as ride comfort. A 50, mile warranty is included with this tire, and you will find it available in either an H or V-speed rating.
Used as original equipment on Toyota, Lexus and others, this tire provides the ride comfort you would expect from Michelin. Beyond being comfortable, it is also quiet. Dry traction is very good, and cornering performance is adequate for this type of tire. The biggest issue this tire faces is its poor performance in even light amounts of snow. Deep snow and ice is even more problematic.
Despite being an all-season tire, you will want to use extra caution on wet surfaces and especially in winter conditions. My experience with the MXV4-plus has been good. The wear has been extremely even, the ride is comfortable, no noise to speak of, and they served me well for the three seasons of eastern PA.
The only complaint I have is that they sometimes slip on wet and snowy roads, especially during first gear acceleration Stage II RC. Otherwise, I have never had a flat and never got stuck. After giving it lots of thought, I'm following my own recommendation and ordering the Primacy MXV4's. I like the deeper tred depth of the new tire and feel that it will be at least as good as the previous versions.
Time will tell. Look under the hood. Offers all the characteristics of the MXV4 but more traction, more sportiness. The MXV4 is a old tire, the Exalto is fairly newer and far superior. I talked to a guy at a recent GTG who does very high numbers of miles in a yearly commute, plus many shorter run trips. He is getting app , miles per set.

Pretty much the same as MXV4, if not better. On the MXV4's over to the Exalto's saw a huge change, got km a tank rather then km full tank i normally got with the MXV4's know my fuel economy is somehow low , I am guessing, because of braking less drag and rolling , and less effort to pick up and go. This is the best tire you can buy for Jetta. Another good tire is the Michelin Harmony but its 'S' rated, that tire is pretty good too.
Saw many Jetta's with these tires. The Harmony's are a good choice if speed rating doesn't make a difference. There are a lot of high quality tyres that are not Michelin that will cost you less and perform as well or better.

Michelin isn't the BEST for no reason, right? By far Michelin has the best longevity and offers excellent performance throughout its treadwear life. All Michelin tires are good somehow, and I have always felt safe with them. I wouldn't want my 17 year old brother in some cheapy Hankook's or Kumho tires.
If you have the money you should deffinetely go for the Michelins. The thing with tires is, you get what you pay for! Last edited: Oct 26, I am not being at all biased about the Michelin tires. Most people might probably know by now that michelins are the best tires for a Jetta. Performance and durablity. Look at most Jetta's on the road there riding on Michelins. Has anyone had a bad experience with Michelin Tires?
By Tire Size Width. Consumer Tire Performance Survey. Dry Traction and Ride Comfort received the highest marks and total mileage that as been reviewed is , Browse a list of all Michelin tires. Had these tires as original equipment. Thought they were great, and I'm now on my 3rd set. They are swell! These were original equipment for my car. There is a reason they were picked by the car company, They are the best for the car!!!
These are the same tires that came on the car originally.
