Just got Michelin Defenders for 800 installed and the difference from the OEM Primacy tires is huge. Much quieter.
Michelin Alpin PA4 here
I have driven my previous car on the CC2, and I couldn't recommend them enough. The weather conditions we get here are exactly like yours, with the roads mostly pretty bad, and I never had any issues. Durable tires, driven on them for about 3 years, and covered around 30k km on them, and had plenty of thread left (sorry, don't know exactly how much). The guy that bought the car from me is still using them. Great in dry and rain, and very confident in snow. Quiet too.
I have CC2 and they are exceptional pretty much in all conditions. They struggle in hot weather, especially braking and they sometimes spin.
From my own experience the CrossClimate 2 is amazing. I bought them this spring, so I haven’t had the chance to see them perform in winter but I’m really confident with them. I’ve driven them a lot in 35+ Celsius on highways and saw no damage or excessive wear at all. They’re outstanding in the snow but give up some wet performance but I still loved them in the rain.
I got a set of Kumho EVO tires for my Model Y about 15 months ago, and they turned out to be a pretty substantial upgrade from the Continental ProContacts the car came with.
Jednom sam igrom slučaja dobio jeftino Michelin Alpin i od tada samo njih kupujem, guma je jednostavno odlična, vozi se kao po suhome. Primjer: Snijeg je nakrkao od podneva do noći, stižemo u Austriju u gradić u koji se ulazi u brdo u nagib od 10-15%, kolona vozila stoji svi paničare i guraju aute, a ja ih zaobilazim sa autom sa zadnjim pogonom bez problema.
You need winter tires. Good solid TRUE winters (not all seasons). That does way more than any large car. I’d take an old sedan with four new Michelin winter tires over a new suv with regular all seasons any day.
Have firehawks on a C5, PS4 on a C4 GS. Both are fine for street driving. I certainly can push the C4 WAY harder but how hard you drive is a huge factor. The PS4 is also way susceptible to flat spotting if the car sits (mine do)
This is standard for Michelin summer tires. They're not recommend for track use since they overheat and start to chunk.
