Tires Falken or Nokia
Get some studded Nokian Hakkapeliitta tires on all four wheels.
I just got a set of Nokian Hakkapeliitta and they are the single best tires I've ever had. They are biased towards water. I've been going through all of the heavy rain puddles thinking I would hydroplane and just nothing happens. I cruise through like I have suction cups as tires.
Falken Wildpeaks on my truck. They disperse heavy rain quite well.
I have a set of Falken at4w. Just drove thru nasty sleet/snow/freezing rain and they handle so good I almost forgot it was nasty out. The downside is they do tend to get a little vibration around 56-60mph when not inflated correctly (low)
Nokian makes some dirt nasty snow tires. Out of all I’ve ever used- they’re the best.
Now I have Nokian WRG5's on my Jetta GLI 2025 which is FWD only and they feel amazing. Much lower road noise than CC2's and MPG did not take a hit, with CC2's I lost about 3 MPGs. Nokian feels solid in every weather you can put it through including Ontario winters given black ice doesn't catch you by surprise.
I’ve had Nokian winter tires on AWD and front wheel drive and it was the most confident I’ve ever been! Couldn’t make myself slide!
The 265/70/17 is a perfect fit. Should have any issues other than fuel economy because the at4 is a heavy tire.
The factory Falken tires on the Cx90 PHEV will not wear well and you will be lucky to get 10-12k miles outta the new tires.
I'll never buy Nokian again. Lasted me less than two winters (stored properly during the summers) before kal tire refused to put them on due to cracking in the sidewalls. Absolute garbage.
