Not all tires are equal, but I switched from Nexen to Continentals and traction is zero problem.
michelin agilis crossclimate 2 dropped these on my kids car last week. top tier traction and stopping in snow ice and rain but great handling on dry as well
I am on my first full year of michellin crossclimate all weather tires. So far performance in the weather weve gotten has been great. Id like to play around in the snow more with them but the dusting i saw earlier this year proved to be not a challenge. Got from langford into victoria on un plowed roads without issue. Breaking controlled and grip saw no issues.
Put cross climates on the Impreza. Drives like a different, better handling car.
Discount Tires, Michelin Defender 2 - this is the way.
Paid about $1000 at Costco for Michelin CrossClimate 2 in 2023.
I have a bit of a sportier car so I primarily run more high-performance tires, currently running some Michelin Pilot Sport A/S4's, and in the rain they are really good. Also not horrendous in light snow but I wouldn't go out in a blizzard with them.
Ok, I’m moving from Atlanta to Western NY. I have never driven in real snow before. I bought these 2 weeks ago in preparation for my trip. I drove from Atlanta to Cincinnati, then Cincinnati to Olean. I-86 was insanely nasty. These cross climate 2’s got me here with no issues at all.
Factory tires wore fast. The scorpions couldn't last more than 20k for me. Bought a few sets but ended up getting the ltx platinum tires, which are crap compared to the scorpions but they wear like rocks. Tread is still going strong after 40k.
Both cars have Michelin X-Ice tires. Drives me nuts. I figured it has to be something with tire weight or road grip or something, but it doesn't seem widespread. I'd love any troubleshooting tips or thoughts, its scary and becoming one of my only personal gripes with the cars.
