michelin tires worn to 2.2mm vs new cheap tires and the michelin was still better.
my Cup2s are sticky at ambient but turn into molten rubber when on track. Pretty amazing how well they work in that regard.
Michellin yung all weather. Been using it. So far so good. Tahimik at makapal pa rin kahit laging ginagamit
Having the CC2s will definitely help. The CC2s will definitely help you stop.
The past couple of sets I've had were Michelin X-Ice and they've been excellent. The X-Ices last for 40k or something.
More sidewall rubber gives a softer ride and absorbs winter roughness better, so a good idea. I went 29 inch 235/60R18 x-Ice for even more rubber and they are great.
Once I put Pilot Sports onto my V40 that thing just came alive. It didn't have crazy power obviously but you could use all of it, all the time and I kept up with or outran much quicker BMWs, Mercs and VWs because it could handle corners (especially once I got the hang of heel-toeing).
Been on the Defender m/s2 for 26,300mi. Still at 44mph average speed. 2.25mi/kwh. They have better steering response and overall grip than A/T which anyone would expect, quieter but not silent, lacking in the looks department, wearing better than Pirellis but faster than the Michelin treadlife prediction. Tire noise has not gotten worse as they age, possibly quieter but I deal with a lot of wind noise so not sure.
CC2 has better grip all around especially in snow, it just might be more noisy and not last as long.
Michelin is the only brand that comes close and I've calculated they're roughly 30% more expensive and last me about 80% as long. I was a big Michelin fanboy and loyal to a fault.
