I love the CrossClimate2 but would try the Weatherpeak next on 2020 RAV4 Hybrid. Only con I've noted with the CC2 is that the gas mileage has dropped like 5-10% though that could be temporarily as the tires break in, and the OEM Dunlop are low rolling resistance tires with poor grip/high noise.
The guys at the Motoring Club in West LA had a 4C Spider to rent for a while, which I did, and it was amazing. The example I drove had a more neutral wheel alignment and Michelin PS4S tires, it was really solid in turns, not the death machine people say at all.
Michelin defender. Good tread life, quiet and good in any wet conditions
Replaced stock set up with Zipp 303 Firecrest and Michelin Power Road 28mm Tubless, HUGE improvement over stock. The Domane instantly gained speed.
Tires wear out faster… I squeezed 43000 mi out of Michelin Primacy tires which isn’t bad.
I ordered new Michelins almost immediately and the ride difference to me is amazing , but the biggest factor was the reduced stopping distance. The Turanza seems to have no stopping performance at all.
I have good all seasons tyres ( Michelin CrossClimate 2), i have yet to notice any unexpected loss of traction.
Just had 4 Michelin defender2 tires installed. A little over $600 out the door. Free rotations and fixes. 80k warranty. Can’t go wrong.
I’m in the Pacific Northwest here, probably similar weather conditions like you. I have seen a 2-3 kWh/100 mi increase in consumption compared to the summer tires.
I had some on my LR4 and they were completely destroyed after 15k miles. Thankfully they had a 60k mile warranty so Michelin paid for a good portion of the Pirellis that went on next.
