Best Tires for the Acura TSX

I bought these as Canadian Tire branded "Certified WinterTrek" (exact same tire made by sailun as the WST3). Overall they are fine tires in the dry and wet, but they are almost as bad as typical all-seasons in the snow/ice. The tread compound is just too hard. I'm sure they will wear well given the stiff tread, but I was hoping for better winter grip. I didn't get them studded.
I didn't even bother putting these on in the winter the past couple of years since the small increase in winter performance over my all-seasons is not worth the effort of changing tires.
Do yourself a favor - if you are not getting them studded (or like me, studs are illegal where you live), don't bother buying them. Search for real winter traction elsewhere.

Overall very solid all-season tire. Coming from Continental Extreme Contact DWS 06 tires you do loose some sporty handling and grip, but do gain much better treadlife. Wish tire had a bit more feedback and it is slightly louder of a tire, but more luxury feeling in the sense it isolates vibrations better. Wet grip is still good.

One of the best when it comes to driving in the wet, or breaking in the wet conditions, aquaplaning resistance is impressive, but as soon as the snow comes in this tire just disappears, my 2.4l petrol engine(not a lot of torque at the bottom) can spin those tires all day long without even having to give much gas... Grip.. there is just none, i believe it's a great central european winter tire, but if there's a chance that you will see snow on the upcoming winter just go for the nokian wr d4, the difference on the wet is miserable and when it comes to driving on the snow wr d4 is on another level

Put these on to replace Pilot Sport A/S 3's. These were fresh tires (manufacture Feb 2020, installed Aug 2020) and they perform well for the couple thousand km I've put on them. The tread is soft and the pattern is not aggressive so the noise levels are very low and the ride comfort is exceptional. This could also be because they are freshly manufactured. Steering response is good, but the sidewalls are a lot softer than the PS A/S3. Good for comfort, bad for handling and steering response. Still, it's a good trade-off for me. Grip levels are not at the level of the Michelins when new, but are far better than the 5 yr old worn Michelins, obviously. No noticeable wear yet. I got these, including installation, balancing, and HST (tax) for C$400 in 225/50R17. The PS A/S3's would cost about 3x. So for the price it's a no-brainer if you want to save a few bucks. Most of the performance for 30% of the price. Obviously the comparison isn't perfectly fair since these are Summer-only vs the Michelins being All-seasons, but I would never drive the PS A/S3s in winter. I tried it once and it was suicidal - they might as well call that one a summer tire, too.

Got it for an amazing price. For this price I have no complaint, and it's one of the decent one I've tried at this price level. I don't mind to buy again.

The best! put them on and drive away!!! So far the best what i had,highly recommend for florida residents!

Fairly average tire, didn't save me that much petrol but doesn't seem to have cost much grip.

Will try something else next time, not because these tires are bad, but more because they're uninteresting.

When experts say that an "all-season" tire really means a "no-season" tire, they must have had the Yokohama S4 in mind. In addition to poor wet and dry traction, it's been confirmed that they have no grip in snow, either, for starting, stopping or turning.

Three inches of heavy (-5C) virgin and tire-packed snow was a real challenge. Okay, once moving on a level road I could easily snake my way along, but not with confidence. Fortunately there were only two gentle hills in my test, and I never had the chance to get up to the 50kph speed limit on them, because I got to the next stop sign first!

I tried driving with the traction/stability control on and off and it made no difference [In really deep snow, with my snow tires, I sometimes have to switch the traction control "OFF" to get/keep going.] I never got going faster than 55kph, on purpose. From that speed I was not able to slow down enough, in a full-ABS [unintended]panic-braking move, to make a slow, 90-degree left turn, and [on purpose] ran onto a neighbour's driveway at about 10kph and drove with two tires across his snow-covered lawn. This car just did not want to brake and turn at the same time. And yes, I know that if I've dialed in too much steering lock I need to unwind the wheel if I'm looking to reduce the understeer. I think the only thing I didn't try was left-foot braking.

These tires have been an expensive disappointment. Turn-in is very slow at 50-60kph (ie right turn on city street), but OK at low speed; bumping pressure up to 38psi F, 34 R helps a lot, at the expense of a jarring ride over driveway curbs, manhole covers & pot holes. There's too much understeer, especially in the wet, and I often think that a stiffer rsb is a must for next spring. Wet braking is poor, and traction control often cuts in. Wet cornering grip is not inspiring, and in the dry it's a far cry from what I was expecting. Starting grip from a stop in the dry is lacking and poor in the wet (traction control activates too often, and the car just doesn't hook-up with even just moderate throttle in the wet). One cm of wet snow last week, on level ground, was scary - there was just no grip for starting, turning or stopping: the rubber compound is wrong! Did I mention that they were expensive. I'm waiting for more snow before I decide if I put the OEM Michelin MXM4's back on, or just use the other car. I purposefully make my wife use the other car because I could see her having a problem with this one in the wet, particularly turning against traffic at a light.
