Been running on Michelin CrossClimates for the last few years...VERY happy. Quiet, good grip in any conditions (including northern Michigan winters)
Owner reviews for tires
Yup, I have had X-Ice on two vehicles and they perform(ed) very well.
I have a set on my 2500 and a set on the Subaru ascent. Good tires and wearing great
if you are looking for superior ride quality, Yokohoma does the job as well.
I have used Michelin Primacy on other Subarus I have had. They have a Michelin Primacy SUV I see online.
The Michelins have always been way quieter in terms of road noise.
I got nearly 70K miles out of my CC2's. That's pretty economical. I did go with Goodyear Assurance WeatherReady 2's this time just because I stacked incentives (USAA = 25% off, Goodyear credit card offered $200 rebate). They were really good in this recent NY storm.
my cheapo Kenda Klever ATs have been great in the snow, okay in bad mud, and great on loose dirt. Killer is they’re loud as hell, but shit they were only $140/tire. Been running them for 30k+ miles without issue
I actually didn't hate them on jeeps I've had in the past. Both my tj and xj had them. Iirc they were a 45k tire. Did ok in the ice and snow, but not excellent. Honestly they were pretty ok tires. With reasonable care, they Delt with slush and light snow pretty well when above the bottom 1/3 of the Tread. Ice was so-so, Reasonable enough to stop my xj without abs. They did pretty good off road, good enough to keep up with a stock or lightly modded jeep, and would probably tackle trails fine with careful lines and good technique. They fell flat in the wet. They were a little bit slick in the rain on pavement, and would turn into a grease ball in the mud.... But they weren't a mud tire. I bet they would be A perfectly reasonable choice for anybody living south of Iowa, or out west. Within reason they were just fine in Minnesota as well.
Triangle tires tend to be very bumpy at low speeds.
I wore out some cheap tires (landsail, avoid they suck) in less than 3 months.
