Just month ego bought a set used Cross Climate (7.2mm traction tread) for 160$ to my EV. i’m living where snow only 1-2 weeks in year and wanna say very good tire for wet ore little bit snowy weather. A little noisy but completely satisfied.
Cross Climate 2 in 225/40R18 size is easily the best tyre i’ve ever driven. We had snow last week and i was able to drive to my street on top of a hill while multiple cars had to park at the bottom, including my dad with Hankook WINTER tires on an SUV. They are also better in wet than Goodyear Eagle F1
We have cross climate agilis on the vans at work, which are RWD so things are a bit more complicated. Generally good tyre, can take a lots of potholes before something will happen to them (lots of country roads). Generally very good grip, but these can get soft when it's very warm in summer, plus in rain it's really easy to spin wheels up when trying to join the traffic faster. Other than that no complains.
As someone who thinks the PS4AS is a great all season tire, you're nuts for replacing the CC2 with it. The winter performance is going to be abysmal in comparison and you're not going to get 50k miles out of them to save your life.
We use the cross climate C on our fleet of over 40 loaded transit vans and they perform and wear great. PNW so lots of rain and (some) snow.
Saying you don’t like oranges because they don’t taste like apples. CC2 is all weather. 50k for AW tires is fantastic. They also have better rain/snow traction, not that they are super sticky tires like sport performance tires.
I’ve had my CC2 for just over 20k and have had zero issues. Still great wet & dry traction. Also, smooth and quiet on the highway.
I've been rocking Hankook Venuts Prime 2S on my 1997 Civic for about a year and how extremely well they handle everything, especially considering they're DOT16. I'm overall extremely happy with the Hankooks.
I have them on my 23 Forester and wish I had went with a different tire but that's simply my personal situation. The CC2 isn't a bad tire by any means. I've drove with them in our last snow storm which ended up dumping 6 inches and they didn't lose traction unless I made it and even then they'd recover traction within 2 seconds if I wasn't hooning it. My main reason for wanting something like the Defender 2 series is thr mpg hit my forester took. I went from about 34 - 35 mpg down to barely able to sustain 30mpg and easily sitting between 28-29 mpg now.
Erm, Pilot Sport 3???\n\n\u00a0TF? That tyre is ancient; Michelin replaced the Sport 3 with the Sport 4 in 2016. The current one is the Sport 5 (2022)
