Noisy AF after 30k miles, I thought my wheel bearings were bad. Won’t be buying them again.

100% agree. And honestly CC2s have disappointing traction in packed snow/ice. Really doesn’t deserve a 3-peak rating. They were marginally batter than the Michelin MXM4 they replaced.
Cons: disappointing snow/ice traction
After running these tires for 50k miles and to their untimely demise, I didn’t think they were particularly special. I don’t think they handled very sharp, they don’t seem super “sticky”, and tread life is pretty average. Even in snow I don’t feel like they’re that much better than an average all season.
Cons: not very special, average tread life
Mileage: 80000 km
I’m also in Chicago, bought the same tires, and just assumed I was heavy footed and that’s why I was can’t break 3.0 mi/kwh even though I’m not that bad. Didn’t realize the tires themselves were less efficient. All that being said I home charge so by my math it’s like 80 dollars extra a year of electricity to avoid the more expensive tires.
Pros: avoid more expensive tires
Cons: less efficient
Michelin AS are at least 10% worse efficiency than most OEM tires. So it's a double whammy, those new tires are probably 15% worse than the summers. Triple whammy with winter and it's a total 35% lost range. ... I'm in the minority but I don't buy Michelins and the 10% range hit they come with.
Cons: 10% worse efficiency, 35% lost range
I did the same switch. I was averaging 4.0-4.1m/kwh. With the new Pilots i dropped to around 3.5. I will take the efficiency hit over the price of the Turanza tires. Four of the Michelins are the price of two of the T009s.
Pros: better price
Cons: efficiency hit
FWIW, Tire Rack tests showed that Pilot Sport A/S 4 had a big impact on EV efficiency.
Cons: big impact on efficiency

I switched from the factory turanza summer tires to Michelin snow tires and saw my average drop by 0.5. I usually see 2.1-2.5 with snow tires vs 2.9 with summers.
Cons: efficiency drop
I did get caught out by black ice last week and skidded a bit but then also got caught out in a different place in my mums car which is on Cross Climates, doing about 20mph both times. Both times I luckily got away with it but black ice is black ice, Cross Climates may give a slightly better chance of getting it back after skidding but not enough to be worth it imo.
Pros: slightly better on black ice
Cons: still skidded on black ice
I run Goodyear F1 Eagles in the summer, and in late October swap over to 3PMSF all-season Michelin cross-climates. The all-seasons have a much better wear tolerance for the occasions where we have 15C in the middle of winter. My Audi only has about 320 BHP, but in the snow / ice, I do not want to be using summer tyres. Equally in the summer, I want to be able to push it on rural roads in Devon without trashing all-seasons.
Pros: better wear tolerance, good in snow/ice

Audi
