I switched off of those to a set of Continental Vikingcontact 8 this year. I don't know if it's because my Xice were old or what but I find the contis to be about 50% (subjective, obviously) better than the michelins
This probably would never happen with some continental extreme contact sport 02\u2019s on there
My wife had continental extreme contacts on her civic, they were a little expensive but worth ever penny. I used to take that shit box skiing on powder days, they are good tires!
I also live in the PNW and have Continental DWS06+ and they are incredible in the rain and light snow.
Been using VikingContact 7s and 8s now for a bit and been very happy with them.
Been using continental viking contact 7, no issues. Obviously the new 8s would be even better.
I swear by Conti Viking Contact (7 or 8) and Bridgestone Blizzaks. I’m in Canada and trust me those rip through the snow
Continental VikingContact 7 (8 is probably even better) or Pirelli PZero Winter 2 are both good and quiet for everyday use. And I’ve run both in some deep snow with no issues.
Grip will be more than fine. Nice soft compound. Performance will be lovely. At first. They will not last. Structural failures before tread is used up, are common. But new is better than old, so if that's what you can afford, go for it.
I had the Continental CrossContact LX on my Hybrid Ltd. My service center told me at my last service visit that I need a tire change at 22k miles, and I should budget to buy new tires.. They said Front thread is at 2/10, Back tires 5/10.. I rotated them and switch it the back tires to the front for now. These tires came with the car 3/4yrs ago.
