MICHELIN › Tires

Grip:

I am a evangelist for the Cross Climate 2s. Have had on my Outback for 1 year. Performance in Snow is awesome as expected, but did not expect such a massive improvement overall in handling, breaking distance, and traction in rainy conditions. And the first time I drove on a dirt road, it felt like a Rally car. 55mph on dirt feels as grounded as pavement. Also, have spots on my regular route that get pooling on the road during decent rain, and it simply will not hydroplane at 60mph.

Pros: massive improvement overall

Vehicle: Subaru Outback

I got Cross Climates on my wife’s Outback last year and they are amazing! Road noise went to zero and they handle perfectly!

Pros: handle perfectly, road noise zero

Ride comfort:

I live in GA and have had the Defender 2’s on my ‘20 Outback Limited for ~10k miles. They replaced the stock tires from when I bought the car. I have been very happy with the ride so far. It is smooth and quieter than I expected. I am a pretty conservative driver, so I haven’t really “tested” the tires. When I have to stop suddenly or drive in the rain, they handle well, and I can’t remember a time where I felt I didn’t have adequate traction.

Pros: smooth and quieter ride

Vehicle: Subaru Outback

Mileage: 10000 km

Grip:

I live in the PNW. I have had the defender and cross climate on my outback. I personally prefer the cross climate so far. We drive in very wet weather and snow. I have not had any issues so far. I do like the handling in extreme rain and light snow with the cross climates.

Pros: good handling in rain

Vehicle: Subaru Outback

Braking:

The factory pads/rotors on my 2011 Outback 3.6 have 90k on them (70% highway miles) and are still in good shape. I'll probably never buy discount parts store brakes again.

Pros: long lasting, good shape

Vehicle: Subaru Outback

Mileage: 90000 km

Chips/cracks:

Get aftermarket, it's superior. I've had my fair share of replacements and aftermarket held up much better. Pilkington is the brand you want if given a choice. Zero issues with Eyesight.

Pros: superior, held up better, no Eyesight issues

Vehicle: Subaru Outback

OEM Subaru › Head gasket

Overheating:

I've owned a 2008 Outback (sold in 2018 with 110,000 miles when the head gasket failed). The consistent oil problems are troubling. But the pros have outweighed the cons so far, so I keep getting Subarus.

Pros: pros outweighed the cons

Cons: consistent oil problems

Chips/cracks:

2021 outback onyx and we are on our third windshield after only 40k. Never had a windshield problem with an 01’ Nissan xterra that we drove to 150k and an 07’ accord that we drove to 110k. Subaru has an issue for sure.

Cons: poor durability, frequent replacements

Vehicle: Subaru Outback

Mileage: 40000 km
