Sure, I'm very familiar with these Michelin Energy Savers because my prior car, a Ford Focus Electric used them. They are just top-notch on efficiency, which is why GM used them (to get the best EPA rating etc.) But I actually drive very little, I will never run out of range, so I don't care about efficiency. So I'm happy to trade-off efficiency for a gripper ride. If I used my Bolt for a daily commute I would definitely stay with the OEMs.

What did you find that was grippier?
I put Ultra High Performance Summer Only (50'F+ only) AA traction rated tires that looked almost like slicks and I still can't put all the electric torque to the road without my tires squealing. I was thinking the next step would be lead weights up front!
