I did the same but went with a nokian tire. Love that tire. nokian is amazing. My ride improved and road noise was reduced.
I picked up a set of aftermarket rims and snow tires from Tire Rack and have been loving them for mountain trips and Local winter road travel.
I chose the WRG5 for my mom due to superior winter performance vs the CC2 and everything I have heard is that the CC2 is one of the louder tires-
Hankook winter icept evo3 were the only options when I was in the market for new winter tires in 235/35R19 and 295/30R19 last year.
For a Helsinki \u2192 Ruka trip in January, go straight for top-tier Nordic studless winters Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 or Michelin X-Ice Snow. Both are built exactly for the kind of icy, packed-snow highways you\u2019ll hit up north, and they handle EV weight really well. The R5 has slightly better ice grip, the X-Ice is a bit quieter and longer lasting.
For long hot summers, they’ll work, but you’ll get better dry grip and road feel from something like the Hankook Kinergy 4S2. Those hold up better in heat and don’t get as squishy.
I have tried falken wildpeak and Cooper discoverer all terrain tires which are both winter rated and neither were remotely as good as mt Hakepalita 10 studded tires.
The tires work and look great, but the noise is unpleasant compared to other options.
When I had those tires mounted on my 3, they wore extremely rapidly - so much so that the rep at Discount Tire was surprised.
Worse tires I've ever had was a set of hankook tires, as soon as they got a drop of water on them they would feel like you're driving on ice
