Tires MICHELIN or Nokia
I was in the exact same boat...I would have preferred the CrossClimates but went with the WRG5 based on the Nokian pedigree and other recommendations for my '18 Accord Hybrid. Yesterday, I drove through some pretty snowy and icy weather in New Brunswick and Quebec. Tires handled like a champ!
I had put Michelin Crossclimate 2 tires on my Model 3. I lost about 10% range but gained a much better traction in rain and snow.
Anyways I'm picking up a set of Michelin Cross Climate 2s tomorrow...I am very impressed how these tires preform on our Atlas.
Michelin - I've had the Pilot Super Sport and Pilot AS4+. They're definitely not cheap, but hands down superior to the Continental equivalent. The AS4+ is almost grippy enough to compete with the Conti summer tire, while also being quieter and producing slightly higher gas mileage.
something like the Continental DWS 06+ from April until November and a dedicated studded Winter tire like the Nokian Hakkapellitta 10 for Winter is a really great choice.
I've rocked Michelin AS4 (and their predecessor) for years in my cars...Zero issues and only switched to the Continental just to try something different...the performance they can now get out of all season tires is pretty impressive.
As much as I love the Continental DWS 06+, I needed to purchase a set of Michelin Cross Climate 2 tires. The Continental DWS 06+ were fine. I got by the Winter without problems. There were only 3 times that I felt that I could use a more Winter like tire.
Michelin pilot sport as are the best all season tire out there, hence why you see them on supercars and hypercars.
Michelin primacy tire, I'm surprised. They usually hold up better than that. Looks like Sun rot!
I'm agnostic about Pirelli. Never owned a set of Michelin that I liked. Over priced, over hyped, and did not come close to mileage expectations. Yes, they were regularly maintained and rotated.
