The CC2s are also awesome on wet/slush as the open v sipes resist hydro planing. Hit standing water with the BS Weather Peak, you better have a firm grip on the steering wheel. Michelin CC2S you hear the splash, but barely feel it in the steering wheel.
Owner reviews for tires
Regarding the X3M - I have about 9 months and 6k miles or so dailying mine. It is firm but I don't believe it's as punishing as most reviews mention. The thing is a monster man. I don't know why anyone would need anything more in a daily. It handles easily as good as my RS3 did and maybe even less body roll despite being much higher CoG and the RS3 didn't roll much either. It feels direct and definitely feels rear driven.
That’s what on my NB right now. I’ve put maybe 3k on them so far and haven’t had issues. I was a little skeptical of them on a Miata since they’re 500 treadwear, but for daily drivers and very limited spirited driving they’re fine. I’ve had the same tire on my wife’s Ford Escape for quite a while and they’ve been great on it, especially wet weather.
I’d go for gp5000. Lasts *way* longer, is probably similarly fast and has great puncture resistance.
They do fairly well on other terrains as well such as wet/mud/rocky/sand with my only minor complaint is that they love to pick up pebbles which tend to make an annoying tapping noise as they rotate
Yes, very happy with them. Great in dry and wet, and I've gone through a foot of snow with them. So much better than the Goodyear assurance garbage that I had before.
Switched from Toyos to the Pirelli Scorpion and instantly felt a difference. Much more quiet and smooth
Michelin pilot sport SUV — changed the driving experience, really like em
I have Nittos. They look cool, did great in the snow last year. Downright terrifying cornering in the rain.
I have the Ridge Grapplers. Got them because so many people online mentioned how quiet they are. Their definition of quiet differs greatly from mine. They will also get progressively louder as miles go by.
