I just put Michelin Crossclimate2s on mine and they're doing great.
I’m in CA I only buy Michelin defenders for all my cars can’t be beat and will last 70k, they are expensive but will last twice as long saving you money
Michelin AS 4 are a solid pick. I\u2019ve run the 3s and 3+ models in previous years and handled driving in up to 6\u201d of snow when the front bumper turned into a snow plow.
I like Michelin X-Ice North4 tires since their studded. The X-Ice Snow ones are good too
I bought all-season tires that are better in the wet/snow/ice than my winter tires I was passed along from my parent's totaled Rav: Michelin CrossClimate2.
Cross Climate 2's are plenty good here. Wife's car has had them for 3 years with no issues in any weather.
As someone from the Uppermidwest with lots of snow, I cannot suggest the Michelin Cross climate hard enough. they're excellent tires that feel well grounded. and they always felt glued to the road in the winter.
Cc2 is great! But they are a little loud and will hit your range!
I have Michelin CrossClimates2 on **awd**. If we get a surprise early storm they are.....fine. On true ice they can't get up/down a steep driveway. So I'd rather not test them braking on ice either (luckily never had this situation come up).
This looks like to be a Michelin PS 3 or 4. If my guess is correct, these are sport tire which means soft rubber compound, and because of that they degrade (harden) fast. From experience, with normal use, they are good for 2-3 years of driving, then they get horribly bad (hard). Above 4 years they become hard like hockey pucks - the rubber looks shiny with lots of micro cracking and they are (from experience) deadly in the rain. So, judging from the picture one (i see micro cracking) and the fact they are 5 years old: They are gone. Tread depth is irrelevant now. They are so hard that you cant wear them down not even in 100.000km. Btw. about 6-7mm is the tread depth when these (Michelin PS) tires are new.
