Just put on the alpin 5s for winter. Car is pretty good in 6” of snow or less and the alpin 5s are actually fun to drive in cold dry.
So I have run the cc2 on my 2010 legacy for about 30k, I'm pretty familiar with their good and bad points. They wear very well so long as you rotate every 5k or less and keep your alignment to spec. After 30k I'm still at 8/32. They have phenomenal snow traction and outstanding rain performance. Summer performance is fine, not dedicated summer sport tire level but fine for me. They can be a little bit louder but nothing that bothers. They do pick up gravel, so you do hear that as it gets ejected and they will cut your mileage by about 2-3 mpg, also no big deal. All in all I find them to be the best tires I've ever run on an all wheel drive car and I will always run them on my subie unless something is proven better.
I have PS4S on my 992.2 C2S and these are fine in very rainy weather l use the WET mode when it's pouring down. The weather around here 5c 41f.
I had Nokian All weather tires on my old beater Subaru and they were great. I have CC2 on my RWD Tesla and I can run them all year long.
Michelin City Grip 2 super makapit and di madulas.
Michelin Pilot Street 1. Umabot sa akin 4 years. Nag switch ako this year lang sa Pilot Street 2.
I'm running Michelin CrossClimates most of the year, and Vredestein Wintrac Pros (on 18" wheels) in the winter. Both are great tires, the Michelins were an immediate and noticable improvement over the stock tires, especially on wet roads.
I only use CC2 on my Tesla Model S here in Utah. I get 60,000 miles out of them and they’re perfect for the climate here. Best and most reliable tire I’ve ever owned.
my experience is that summer tyres provide _significantly_ more grip in the wet than CC2s. If you get ice and snow, CC2s are great, but they're not very good in the wet.
They're also not particularly quiet. I put them on my XC90 and found them to be very droney at anything over 50mph.
The OEM tires - Michelin EnergySaver AS - are great for efficiency and pretty bad for everything else. Went through two sets, and both were consistently bad in rain and snow. One of the tires on the second set got ripped on the *sidewall* as it hit a pothole, and I found out later that the sidewalls were indeed a bit of weakness for them.
