Recommend tyres
I'm at the point where my Golf GTD MK7 will need front tyres. Looking at pilot sport 4's , I'm open to other suggestions. I'm not severe on tyres and would prefer something not too noisy. It's shod with Michelins all round atm.

Do you have a budget in mind? Between Michelin and Bridgestone choices are good.0

A what GTD? What size tyres?0

We need more info to give any meaningful replies.
Car make?
Full tyre size details?
Budget?
But as usual if you ask 20 people about tyres you're likely to get 20 different answers.
Especially as you only want to buy 2 and not a complete set.0 -
Personally I would stick with what is currently on the car rather than change and have a mix.0

I'm a big advocate of Michelin Cross Climates but then I do live at 660 feet above sea level and get snow every year that causes major issues. (A work colleague has just had some fitted and Kwik Fit were the cheapest place she found them - including on line!)0

I've just switched to Cross Climates, although my regular driving conditions are not as severe as yours last winter's snow made me think all season tyres might be a reasonable option (I used winter tyres on steel rims when I lived in the Scottish Highlands). They are expensive but on the plus side I've found them to be pretty quiet. I got mine from an independent as I won't give my business to the likes of KwikFit, but I took the Black Circles price with me to negotiate.0 -
Further info supplied. No particular budget. Access to Costco for tyres.Don’t be a can’t, be a can.0

Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3
Or
Michelin Crossclimate+
However it appears Costo may sell neither.0 -

Try Amazon next time, purchased four Michelin Crossclimate+ last year at a ridiculously low price, then cost £10 per tyre for local fitter to fit and balance.0
