BMW run-flats are fine in summer but get sketchy fast once the snow hits, so switching to regular tires like the CrossClimate 2s is a huge upgrade in ride comfort and winter grip. It made my X3 feel like a totally different car
I purchased my ‘23 m40i and it came with oem Bridgestone RFTs. I purchased new tires for it before taking delivery - Michelin Cc2s. No regrets. Works perfect especially here for Chicago winters.
put on michelin cc2s on my xm4c 2 years ago. our temps run from 0F in winter to 115F in summer. i like these tires.
Just got 20 inch Michelin cross climates 2 for $1450.
I just popped mine on tonight for the east coast snow shenanigans this weekend. They did amazing during 1000+ mile ski trip to Canada. They make the speed variable humming. But man are they soft.
Can vouch for Michelin E Primacy. Quiet and supposedly saves fuel due to low rolling resistance.
I have them on my 23 Forester and wish I had went with a different tire but that's simply my personal situation. The CC2 isn't a bad tire by any means. I've drove with them in our last snow storm which ended up dumping 6 inches and they didn't lose traction unless I made it and even then they'd recover traction within 2 seconds if I wasn't hooning it. My main reason for wanting something like the Defender 2 series is thr mpg hit my forester took. I went from about 34 - 35 mpg down to barely able to sustain 30mpg and easily sitting between 28-29 mpg now.
They'll suck on hard packed snow and ice and anybody who says they are the equivalent to a snow tire is dead wrong. But don't take that as they are bad, they are still good, just not what people hype them up to be during the winter.
Every Michelin I've owned has been too loud for me.
I’ve had both on my car here in Michigan, the CC2 was awful on packed snow and ice, especially the braking distance. I had them removed because both me and my wife hated them. Yes, they were noisy and very inefficient too.
