I've always used Michelin Defenders for heavier vehicles like vans. They may be slightly noisier, but they last *forever*.
really like the Michelin Crossclimate2. They look a bit funky. Excellent in wet weather. Far better than the factory tires.
I bought crossclimate 2 and received over 3 feet of snow a week later.
Literally no issues at all in the snow and ice. Fantastic tire.
We have michelin defenders and are happy. Live in southern california so not a lot of rain but they seem to perform fine when it does.
I've been able to survive these the last decade with a RWD car on Michelin X-Ice Snow tires, so I bought a set for the GRC also. And they don't completely suck when the ground isn't snowy or icy.
I now have the Michelin Energy xm2+ on a corolla. It's a good economy tyre, focusing on low rolling resistance and longevity. The Michelin is a bit quieter, but fuel consumption went up a little (0.2-0.3l/100km) on my Hybrid Corolla.
My brother has the xm2 on a 400hp toy, and the xm2 tyres still work quite well.
The continent Viking contact 7 is what I run in Colorado mountains. IMO best bang for buck winter tire. It’s my ski car so if there is powder I am there and hasn’t failed me yet.
I got new Michelin's and it took 2 weeks to get better
I'm in Buffalo ny and I can't stand the CC2 tires had them on a Dodge minivan. In fresh snow where nobody else has driven these tires were actually really good but as soon as you got into the street where people were driving already Boy oh boy did that front end slip around all over the place. After stopping at a red light or a stop sign I would be stuck trying to go with other vehicles flying around me super disappointed in these tires. With the high rating of these tires I really expected a lot more. I switched to a used discontinued firestone and now I have the best grip ever. The difference is unbelievable
