Tires MICHELIN or Barum
Easy answer: Costco membership + Michelin Cross Climates. Exceptional tires, you’ll notice them on a lot of vehicles once you know what to look for.
I drive on Michelin pilot sport 4 or 4s for summer and these are superb tires.
I wanted to report on the cross Climate michelin tires. My wife and I just put a set I'm her GMC Acadia 4 wheel 2 wheel and all wheel drive. we live in Michigan and i have to say they are by far the best tires I've ever tested in the snow.
I had the old x Ice 3 then now have the x Ice snow. For sure you maybe pay a bit for name brand but so far I really like them Quieter, seems to me better in the deeper snow then the older ones too
I have the cross climate 2 and they are fantastic for light snow and ice.
I have Michelin CrossClimate and Maxxis Premitra, been happy with both, maybe slight edge to the Michelin.
Michelin cross climate 2. Not a snow tire but rather “all weather.” Great handling in dry, wet and snow. My first set I got about 60K on and I only replaced them this fall because its ability in the snow was fading towards the end (which is normal).
I will give a node to Michelin X-Ice, they were phenomenal on my 7th gen 2.4 without traction control- rarely encountered wheel spin
I would go with the ones that are the quietest. I have some Michelins with the V tread on a Lexus. Good tires but loud.
I changed from the OEM tires to Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 4's a few months ago and have been disappointed with them. They do have more grip than the OEM tires but feel really squirrely and "Mushy" while steering, especially when driving more "spiritedly". I miss how stable the car felt with the original tires.
