Tires MICHELIN or LASSA
I just got my Cross Climates there a couple months ago. Price was same as Tire Rack which is where I usually go, but included install.
The tires themselves are good, noise level and ride quality are comparable to the mxm4 (I can’t tell the difference) and when giving the car a bit of acceleration I was able to handily control the car around some wider turns.
After reviewing the comments out here, I went with Michelin Defender 2’s and couldn’t be more pleased so far (2000 miles). I picked up about 3mpg (36.9!) in town and up to 6 more (granted following my friends in their RV at 60 mph - I got over 40 mpg then). They handle well in rain or dry, are relatively quiet.

If you’re looking for something on the cheaper side, Lassa Revola is not bad, the problem is - they are a bit loud (71db), but if that doesn’t bother you - good option for its money
I've had the Michelin Crossclimate 2 for the last few years. Great tires. I've driven them in -55 fahrenheit with snow and ice to 110 fahrenheit, rain storms and so on with no issues. The only con is that they are a bit loud on the highway.
I am on my second pair of Cross Climates and love them. Great traction on gravel, wet pavement and even is snow. Great mileage at highway speed of 30mph in my 2015 Forester. Only downside is they are a bit noisy.
We have the Michelin CC2s. They are great in dry weather and snow. I love that I don't have to swap snow tires on the car anymore.
I also have the Defender 2 though I didn't quite make as deliberate a choice. I jumped a curve in a parking lot and did sidewall damage (some metal bit on a storm drain) to my stock tires, and I had the car towed to Discount Tire and the Defender 2 was the only good option in stock at the time.
I wouldn’t recommend Michelin cross climate they ruin your alignment all the time, they too hard mileage is too low, too much gas because engine need to push them, also it not comfortable at all.
