Michellin. X and my 2015 Jetta I have 0 issues driving in snow ice condition. The feedback from the car give me the feeling of the road and makes me anticipate my Next Movement
I live in buffalo area we just were hit with 2 feet of snow the past two days. I put dedicated 20inch wheels and Michelin x ice tires on it instead of the 22” stock wheels and Michelin all seasons. It’s the most planted feeling I’ve had in a vehicle in the winter. I love how well the defrost works too. I’m start a new post tho for what is the most overkill windshields wipers available for the ix. I need them.
I put on a set of Michelin x-ice and went down to 20” rims from the stock 21’s. Handles great, very little sliding, good grip and I was surprised how quiet the tires are for full snows.
I have these from January 2023 with 40,000 miles and they look almost new.
Idk but the CC2 on my van lasted for 70k miles which was insane
CC2. Sharper handling than the stock ProContact TX and superior in bad weather (standing rain water and snow.)
Lots of snow here in WI this winter so far. My hybrid with CC2s (with 30k on them) has been a champ
The tread pattern on the cross climate tires is noisy and you might notice a drop in mileage (-10mpg has been reported).
Have quite a bit of feedback on the wheel despite road force balancing and wondering if the “normal” values might help.
They are loud and don’t ride particularly well. Grip is good but it’s definitely a compromise. I think their marketing is just really good and they are not worth the compromise. I would always just run a dedicated touring set and dedicated winters.
