Put them on my Fiat 124 Abarth (RWD convertible). Firsts snow test was this morning... WSDOT plowed the road down to hardpack snow/ice, and they did great. No trouble on the ascent, no trouble in the packed snow/ice/slush parking lot... Perfect winter-season tire for this climate.
I live in Waukesha (near Milwaukee) and have LOVED my X-Ice Snows the last two winters. I commute downtown every day (30 minutes of mixed interstate/city driving) and am super comfortable with those tires on my stock wheels in winter
I have a dedicated summer wheel set and made these my dedicated winter set, having X-ice 3’s prior. They obviously don’t grip on ice the best but for everything else they have been superior. 2015 BMW 328i xDrive.
I put the CC2s on my Civic Hatchback about 1,500 miles ago, and I have throughly enjoyed them. Last week they got their first taste of snow, and the grip was excellent. Many of the side roads were insanely messy... I didn’t slide once... I love these tires.
I only put ~8k kms / 5000 miles on them, so I can't comment on longevity. But I drove them through snow, sleet and heavy rain (winter tires), and up to 125mph on the German Autobahn, and they were just fine.
Got a set of 16 steelies with Michelin Ice-X's for my 2014. Have worked pretty well so far and I got at a good deal with Discount Tire.
Michelin Pilot Sport 4S is the go to summer tire for many.
Michelin X-Ice was my go to for my 14’s on my AW.
Been driving on the new Falkens for a while now. They’re good but they’re definitely more noisy than the Michelins. Can hear more road noise than I’ve heard in the last 1.5 years.
I have vibrations on my Wildpeaks as well, you aren't alone. Been in to re balance repeatedly. Doesn't matter, still shakes. I gave up on it and just live with it. Don't know if I'll run them again.
