It's now been a full year with mine. Loved them in the winter. Loved them in the summer.
Michelins defender platinum.
Never look back. Quieeeeet and long lasting. Great rain performance.
Have about 5k on the Michelins after 55K on General Grabbers. As far as quiet goes, the Michelins are definitely quieter (and I think smoother) than the Generals.
I had defenders on my old truck and they last forever.
I drive heavy snow in the winter and logging roads in the summer. I found the stock Michelins hold up really well, and are extremely quiet without slipping in dirt or snow. The tires just don't look like they should work as well as they do.
I run these to get to ski resorts from denver on cold ass winter mornings. Good tire
We’re on 2nd set of the cross climates on an XC90. Only downside is they are a little noisy. Soooo much better than OEM tires…
Only thing that’s been on our Polestar 2 since the day we bought it back in 2022. Just put second set on after 60k miles, so I can vouch for the tread wear rating.
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)
Cup2 is a garbage tire that is basically great for 2-3 sessions and then turns into a pumpkin for the remainder of its tread life.
