Tires MICHELIN or Falken
Pilot Sport 3's on my NB have been great. Plenty of grip all day every day, if that's what you're into. I've had them for 3 years and have done 40.000km with them
I use the Falken RT660+ on my NC during Race Season/Non Winter.
Really fun grippy tires, and are only $180 a tire in a 225/45/17 last I checked. They will drive in the rain just fine as long as there is not standing water (puddles) as well.
I daily on them and autocross on them during the warmer months
If you don't mind dropping some coin on tires you can put Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 on your CX-90. There will be minimal road noise aside from what you get from 21" wheels.
For that New England -> Montana winter highway run, the Falken Wildpeak AT3W is honestly the safest all-terrain you can throw on a Tacoma without going full snow tire. They bite way better on packed snow/ice than KO3s and stay stable at highway speeds.
Been running on Michelin CrossClimates for the last few years...VERY happy. Quiet, good grip in any conditions (including northern Michigan winters)
Yup, I have had X-Ice on two vehicles and they perform(ed) very well.
I have used Michelin Primacy on other Subarus I have had. They have a Michelin Primacy SUV I see online.
The Michelins have always been way quieter in terms of road noise.
I had hakkas studded since 2015 and switched to X-ice this year. Phenomenonal tires. I didn't expect it to be better than hakkas in my experience. Huge difference in traction on dry pavements during winter on highways like Henday which I drive everyday, not to mention, the most quiet winter tired I've used. My next winters will be X-ice again for sure.
For me, Altima FWD, they are a little worse than my dedicated snow tire when I’ve ran them (I’ve gotten stuck once and had to put on chains). I like the blizzaks better but the CC2s do ok. CC2s also get slightly worse mpg than the blizzaks/are a little louder.
i had Continental DWS06 on my 2020 WRX, just switched to pilot sport A/S 3 this year. the pilots SUCKKKKK in the snow, glad i'm not the only one who's noticed. Definitely going back to my DWS06 after these pilots are done.
