Stock 2009 Accord Coupe Tires
My coupe came with Michelin Pilot HX MXM4 tires. I noticed (300 miles on the clock) a slight "chirp" and loss of traction while going around a corner at normal speed (in town). I check a few sites that rated tires......the tire is a dog, at least by their user ratings. Check tirerack.com. I also viewed 1010tires.com
Any real life experiences to suggest a tire with focus on traction in wet or snow conditions?

I'd suggest to have a look in the https://honda-tech.com/zeroforum?id=56 forum and look for threads where Nsxtasy has talked about good tyres for compromise situations like that.
It's going to be hard to find a tyre that adheres well in the dry, but also channels water perfectly <u>and</u> will work in the snow. Such a tyre really does not exist.
All of them are compromises.

its quite important to have safe tires since its the only part that touches the road.

Re: Stock 2009 Accord Coupe Tires (fastaccord213)
i have an 08 and i actually found that the stock michelin were pretty bad for the vehicles's power and weight. given my tire has 5k on them when i took it off and i notice it was down to 6/32nd on the front and 7~8/32 on the rear. Now im using the bridgestone re050 because i get a good deal out of it, and the initial feedback/response was the braking were better and the handling was alot better.
