Honestly I've been running Michelin on all my cars and SUVs and never had a single problem aside from sometimes uneven wear. Aside from wear issue, they are they best handling tires on dry and wet road.
Conti vs Michelin steer tires, which is the best choice?

All that I can say is I despise Bridgestone tires. Not a good experience with them ever. Steer, drive or trailer.
Michelin all positions, Yokohama drive or trailer.beardeddriver, bzinger, Rideandrepair and 1 other person Thank this. -
Michelin’s are known to last forever. Problem is, you need to replace them before they wear out because of age and drywall cracks. I’ve also seen them blow way too often.
I use bridgestones because they wear good and track great and buying 11R24.5 sizes, other brands can hit $700Rideandrepair Thanks this. -
Rideandrepair and Nothereoften Thank this.

Out of your choices I'd go Michelin from experience even though the company runs Continentals .I'd buy hankook personally, forget which one though. Same stats as a Michelin if not better and much less expensive
Rideandrepair Thanks this. -
Price wise I was told that Conti will be cheapest, extra $50 for Michelin and extra $50 on top on that for Bridgestone.... to be more priceise $612 for Conit $652 Michelin $695 Bridgestone

Continental used to be only lugged that had 1” tread opposed to 15/16. I heard they’re now 15/16.Brand new Set I had on repo I bought lasted and wore very good. I see T/A sells a lot now. Another reason if wanting to keep all matched. I’m hoping to cut a deal @ T/A on some drives soon. Hit and miss with them on prices.
