Tire Recommendation

I need to replace my Pirelli Rossos soon. I am looking for something quiet and comfortable and last longer than the Rossos. (this set wore out in 13,000 miles)

I have heard good things regarding the Michelin Latutide HP, Toyo Proxes. Anyone with real life experience with these two tires please chime in.

Any other suggestions for 275/45/19 replacements?

I had Latitude Sports on my Cayenne S, it has same pattern as the Michelin PS2.
Very quiet and smooth. I had them for 3 months, love them.

The Latitude wont last as long as the Rossos, but otherwise its a nice tire. Yoko advans should last a little longer though.

I've had Toyo Proxes S/T in 285/35/22 for two years and 20,000 miles on a 05 CS. I like these tires and will buy another set when necessary. FYI, the next generation of Toyo S/Ts are on the market now. They should be even better than the current tires.

I've had the Yokohama's and think they are far superior to the Mich's or the Pirelli's. The Advan Sport's were excellent but noisey at low speeds while the Proxes are excellent all around (quiet, good ride, wear well, look good, and inexepensive).

I researched this for a while before I replaced them all a few weeks ago and found that the Yoko Proxes were the best choice an I can confirm that they are excellent.

So far I am very happy with the 18" Bridgstone Dueler HP Sport
If you Cayenne is still under warranty make sure you get the N rated tires. If you don't and you have any drive train problems you will be SOL

On Tire Rack the 19" Bridgestones are not N rated
