Tires MICHELIN or Barum
Another vote for Alpins. I live in Colorado at 8000' elevation with over 300\" of snow...Avid skier etc and would never run anything else. The tire is so good in everything I literally run them all year round, carving canyons in July...rain every day in Oct/April...snowy commutes to the hospital in the middle of the night in Jan: no problem. It rocks in everything!
I think they're the best I use it for my 2009 Yamaha Zuma 125 love them
Just put one of these on the rear, very happy with it so far
100% agree. Have used’m exclusively for 6 years on my Yamaha XMax 400 ABS. Consistently reliable and when paired with ABS you’re good to go in any weather or surface. Worth every penny.
My 2022 Forza came with the City Grip 1 but I poped my rear tire and the dealserchip got me a City Grip 2.
I read a lot of comments saying they lack grip but I never had any issues. Heck ! I even drove in 5cm deep water with them (albait slow and cautiously) and they never failed me.
That being said I also ran Michelin and they handle extremely well in the snow.
Love love love my Alpins. They are no Blizzaks but the fact that they drive incredibly well in the cold dry roads adds so much pleasure to winter driving. I also don't need to commute so I just hang out for a day while they plow. They handle mild snow fine too
Michelin defenders. Original equipment on my 2013 Leaf. They have .800" of tread when new. Not like all the other tires that have only .400" of tread new. I have 82K miles on the with 20% of the tread left now. Getting 4.1 miles per KW. You can't beat these tires...
Got a set on my Honda Clarity not long ago, this is my first set of CrossClimate 2 tires on an electric vehicle. I got these because I was so happy with them on my Camry.
They are fantastic in the rain. I've never had a tire so resistant to hydroplaning.
But I want to warn everyone interested that these tires are very noisy in the low frequency range of about 60-160 Hz.
All weathers weren't worth it in my case, I'm not hard on my tires at all and I logged 35-45k On the ones I bought last year and they are already at 2/32'nds. I went back to all seasons this year, due to I'd rather get the 80,000km's with the Michelins I bought. Nor did I really notice a difference in traction/handling between All Weathers and All Seasons.
