here the time comes for my 2019 with 33k miles to get new tires.
Looks like there are no Michelin options available. So I have to choose between Conti, Hankook and Pirelli.
Have read a lot good and bad about the first two but was wondering if anyone here has tried Pirelli?

looks like they have best customer reviews on the rack. Any thought?

Those are not XL load rated.

I just changed my 21" tires for my 2019 Prestige last weekend at America's tires. Had been researched for the last couple months and stick with the OEM Continental since I live in SoCal and not planning to travel to anywhere with substantial snow and range is a major factor for my decision. I had been happy with the OEM Conti so I just stick with it.

They are not XL load rated for the etron.

The Michelin CC2 is an all-season tire, not a "snow tire". Its an extremely capable all-season tire, quiet, smooth and grippy as all get-out. I've had them on an etron and loved them. And yes they will eat snow all day.

you’re right. Not sure why I assumed they’re winter tires. Good eating too.
Will wait for a couple of days to see if anyone has any feedback on Pirelli too.

I run a set on an MDX, they are perfectly fine. They are just not rated for the weight of an etron. But go ahead and find that out the hard way.
