Mine is amazing in the snow. Winnipeg. Running x-ice.
I replaced with cross climate 2s, they did great in the snow
I have Michelin X-Ice/Snow tires and they work great ???????? I live in northern Wisconsin where they rarely plow the roads.
This winter I have Crossclimates on and it is like a completely different car. It just finds grip everywhere.
I like the 300 tw summer street tires, MPS4S and ECS02 when you’re shopping for this in between segment. They’re my daily driver tires and I find them quite fun to autocross and pretty much right next to the non-fast summer tires but you’ll get 20k-30k street miles out of them.
I have Michelin defender ltx m/s2’s on my truck and have been researching tires to put on next. I keep coming back to these. Seem to be best for noise/longevity/quality and have a ton of sipes that make them a good snow tire. I don’t see myself changing up.
I almost purchased those tires. I chose the Michelin CrossClimate2 instead. Mostly bc I was worried about highway mpg.
I'm buying into Michelin (MGDDY) now because the tire and rubber industry took a big hit this year. I don't see rubber or tires going anywhere tho so I think it could be a long term value pick
I have a 22 CX-5 and replaced my Toyo A36 tires with the Defender 2s. I was already considering switching them out as I dont like the feel, but I noticed today I only got 27.2 mpg on the highway. This is the same trip I make all the time and used to get 30 to 31mpg on the Toyo tires.
I'm severely disappointed in these tires. My parents put 255/65r18 nomad grapplers on their 2013 traverse 2LT. Not even 200 miles on these tires and a stick punctured one of them.
