Tires MICHELIN or NANKANG
I've been using Michelin city grip since 2019 sa click v1. Sabi nila madali daw maupod pero makapit pero binili ko parin, why? dahil sa word na makapit lalo na kapag basa/maulan.
Everyday long ride ako General Trias-Sucat-Ermita Manila vice versa with OBR and sec topbox. 15mos lifespan ng rear tire ko and 30mos naman sa front.
I'm running Michelin pilot super sports in stock size 205 45 17s on my ND B/B/R club. Grip is massively improved over the s001s, but still feel light and nimble. Grip is so good in fact, that capability now exceeds what is reasonable to push in most road situations. In that regard, I do sometimes miss the cheeky tail out shenanigans that used to be easy on a desolate country road sweeper.
Pilot Sport 3's on my NB have been great. Plenty of grip all day every day, if that's what you're into. I've had them for 3 years and have done 40.000km with them
If you don't mind dropping some coin on tires you can put Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 on your CX-90. There will be minimal road noise aside from what you get from 21" wheels.
Been running on Michelin CrossClimates for the last few years...VERY happy. Quiet, good grip in any conditions (including northern Michigan winters)
Yup, I have had X-Ice on two vehicles and they perform(ed) very well.
I have used Michelin Primacy on other Subarus I have had. They have a Michelin Primacy SUV I see online.
The Michelins have always been way quieter in terms of road noise.
I had hakkas studded since 2015 and switched to X-ice this year. Phenomenonal tires. I didn't expect it to be better than hakkas in my experience. Huge difference in traction on dry pavements during winter on highways like Henday which I drive everyday, not to mention, the most quiet winter tired I've used. My next winters will be X-ice again for sure.
my experience is that summer tyres provide _significantly_ more grip in the wet than CC2s. If you get ice and snow, CC2s are great, but they're not very good in the wet.
They're also not particularly quiet. I put them on my XC90 and found them to be very droney at anything over 50mph.
I have them and am not happy with them. I expected better. Poor wet handling and when I take a sharp turn they don\u2019t hug the road - lots of road noise too. I will be switching to pilot sport A/S as it doesn\u2019t snow in downtown Toronto a whole lot. I\u2019m not willing to compromise performance/ handling. Very good for commuters and people who drive in snow and don\u2019t want to do the winter switch over.
