Tires MICHELIN or Falken
I just got a set of Michelin city grip 2 tires 120/70 on both front and rear. So far they grip way better than stock on wet and dry pavement. The wider tires make the handling feel way more sluggish though.
You are completely fine. I drive an LC500 in NJ. Put on the Michelins and rarely brakes tractions.
michelin agilis crossclimate 2 dropped these on my kids car last week. top tier traction and stopping in snow ice and rain but great handling on dry as well
I am on my first full year of michellin crossclimate all weather tires. So far performance in the weather weve gotten has been great. Id like to play around in the snow more with them but the dusting i saw earlier this year proved to be not a challenge. Got from langford into victoria on un plowed roads without issue. Breaking controlled and grip saw no issues.
Put cross climates on the Impreza. Drives like a different, better handling car.
Discount Tires, Michelin Defender 2 - this is the way.
Paid about $1000 at Costco for Michelin CrossClimate 2 in 2023.
I have a bit of a sportier car so I primarily run more high-performance tires, currently running some Michelin Pilot Sport A/S4's, and in the rain they are really good. Also not horrendous in light snow but I wouldn't go out in a blizzard with them.
I live in southern Ontario in Canada and after one winter of driving around mainly in the city I decided that they weren\u2019t enough especially when going up any sort of incline with snow on the ground. I recently got a set of Michelin Ice-X tires and it makes a world of a difference. In the end if there\u2019s anything more than a light dusting on the ground dedicated winters is the way to go. Also for context I drive a FWD Volvo V50. All in all they are great but as someone else said. Jack of all trades, master of none.
I got Pilot AS4s for mine, thinking I'd be good for... *ALL* seasons. The Pilots were solid for that winter. Come next winter and I'm thinking I'm good to go. Nope. Mine was legit dangerous.
