Just replaced tires on my 2017 XC90 with Michelin Cross Climate 2 (235/55/19 115V) and LOVE THEM. By far the best tire I’ve had on it and beats the Pirelli and Continental options hands down.
The defenders are a very good choice. On road performance is no different than the defenders, they are just as quiet, but have a slightly more aggressive tread.
That said, I really have enjoyed the Michelin Cross Climate; amazing rain traction and very cushy. Only knock is that they are a little noisy in sweeping turns.
the ride is sooo much better than the stock tires. quiet and smooth.
I've been buying my tires at Costco for years. Prices couldn't be beat, especially when they have a sale. Got a set of Michelin CrossClimate 2s for a minimum 400 less than anywhere else.
I live in Colorado and last fall I got Michelin CrossClimate 2s for my VB. Great tires! They worked beautifully all winter with the snow that we had (along with several trips up to the slopes) and also worked great with all of the rain this spring/summer.
I just bought a set of Michelin CrossClimate 2, which are arguably the best all-season tire out right now.
Just tried out Sullivan Tire for the first time. Got a good deal on a set of Michelin's, they were running a free install promo.
We have these on one of our FWD cars, and the Bridgestone WeatherPeaks on another FWD car. If you deal with snow for a decent part of the year the WeatherPeaks are a phenomenal tire, basically a snow tire with a high wear rating, the Cross Climate 2 is OK in snow.
I was in a prius with michelin defenders on rt90 in MA during a rainstorm at 65 with cruise control when the front wheels just spun out, lost traction
