I bought crossclimate 2 and received over 3 feet of snow a week later.
Literally no issues at all in the snow and ice. Fantastic tire.
We have michelin defenders and are happy. Live in southern california so not a lot of rain but they seem to perform fine when it does.
I've been able to survive these the last decade with a RWD car on Michelin X-Ice Snow tires, so I bought a set for the GRC also. And they don't completely suck when the ground isn't snowy or icy.
I now have the Michelin Energy xm2+ on a corolla. It's a good economy tyre, focusing on low rolling resistance and longevity. The Michelin is a bit quieter, but fuel consumption went up a little (0.2-0.3l/100km) on my Hybrid Corolla.
My brother has the xm2 on a 400hp toy, and the xm2 tyres still work quite well.
I put Michelin Cross Climate 2s on my mine and they seem to be doing well.
I’m running the Michelin X ice no problems in the Montana winters does great and haven’t been stuck yet. Plows through 2 feet of snow
I have used Good Year Opti-life pro 3 for the last 100,000 KMS of driving that I have done in the 16 leaf. Around $200 per tyre fitted. I have original rims, so this price is for 205/55-16. I get 38,000 kms on average and I drive hard. I u-turn and reverse a lot as I do food delivery work 150 KMS a day. Highly recommend them.
Vara/primavara/toamna se comporta foarte ok, nu am sesizat diferente fata de o anvelopa dedicata. Se comporta chiar mai bine decat o anvelopa dedicata din gama medie de pret.
Iarna pe frig (fara zapada) la fel, comportament excelent.
Insa in zapada, chiar si mica, acolo am observat diferente. Trebuie sa conduc cu cel putin 30-40% mai “defensiv” si mai atent ca sa nu fiu luat prin surprindere (distanta franare, derapaj, urcare/coborare pante).
Go spend the money buy 4 new Michelin Cross climate sell the old tires on Facebook you will enjoy your new car so much more those OE tires are garbage and dangerous in the rain/snow
