I'm running Michelin pilot super sports in stock size 205 45 17s on my ND B/B/R club. Grip is massively improved over the s001s, but still feel light and nimble. Grip is so good in fact, that capability now exceeds what is reasonable to push in most road situations. In that regard, I do sometimes miss the cheeky tail out shenanigans that used to be easy on a desolate country road sweeper.
Pilot Sport 3's on my NB have been great. Plenty of grip all day every day, if that's what you're into. I've had them for 3 years and have done 40.000km with them
If you don't mind dropping some coin on tires you can put Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 on your CX-90. There will be minimal road noise aside from what you get from 21" wheels.
Been running on Michelin CrossClimates for the last few years...VERY happy. Quiet, good grip in any conditions (including northern Michigan winters)
Yup, I have had X-Ice on two vehicles and they perform(ed) very well.
I have used Michelin Primacy on other Subarus I have had. They have a Michelin Primacy SUV I see online.
The Michelins have always been way quieter in terms of road noise.
I had hakkas studded since 2015 and switched to X-ice this year. Phenomenonal tires. I didn't expect it to be better than hakkas in my experience. Huge difference in traction on dry pavements during winter on highways like Henday which I drive everyday, not to mention, the most quiet winter tired I've used. My next winters will be X-ice again for sure.
They handle great on ice, they cut through deep snow. I didn't skid or slide much, and I didn't get pulled around during lane changes or driving my car across deep ruts.
I just put them on my Forester and am now struggling to maintain 30mpg whilst before I was sitting between 34 - 36 depending on how many red lights I caught that week. I kind of wish I had gone with the Defender 2 series or another touring tire personally as I already have Blizzak WS90s on my Wrx STi that I can use for heavy snow
Pilot Sport A/S 3+ Basically no grip on anything cold and snowy. I don't know how any of you use these where it snows with any frequency.
