Replacement tire help - Toyota Yaris Forums

I'm not big on running a summer/winter tire. The streets are only bad for a day the most. Good all-season would be great. I love michelin tire, that is all I have on my cars. But I was reading that the defeder sucks on a light car. I'm not a fan of a soft tire like firestone. But would that be the best way to go, go soft?

I don't want to impact your choice, but you see temps lower than 45F often or it last throughout the winter, it is a good idea to run on dedicated winter tires since all season rubber gets harder below 45 and it is bad for handling.

Tires and brakes are the last you can do for safety..
