I bought all weather Michelin cross climate2 tires. I don’t want to have 2 sets of tires. I live in southern Ontario and we get snow yes but roads are generally taken care of well and I don’t go North at all.
I put good winter tires on it (Michelin X-Ice Snow EV) and I’ve not had an issue with RWD. Today was the first day I’ve driven it in pure winter conditions and it was a dream to drive.
I bought these when living in Western Colorado and they did great for last winter. I also had a great experience with them in the PNW/Western Oregon in a more rainy than snowy climate. They were about $1000 total and came with a reasonable warranty which I recommend for any AWD vehicle.
I do notice that they can be loud but I don't care. They also seem to decrease fuel efficiency but I am okay with that since I am starting with high efficiency in the first place.
recently replaced OEM falken on my 21 CE for some Pilot sports and smh.. idk why i waited so long. car feels so great driving. tires have great grip. corners takign with ease. and if acceleration is amazing.
Michelin Defender 2. I replaced all 4 just past 30,000 miles. Expensive, but high quality and rated to last 80,000 miles.
Ive used then for daily driving to work and driving to 10+ autocross and tracks days a year, I’ve been pretty competitive in cam-c with this tire and they still have 1 more year in them. I live in Utah so we get plenty of wet weather. My most competitive autocross events are the wet weather events.
Michelin X-Ice this go around . Have had Hakkas, blizzaks, and nexen over the years.
Blizzaks are great. Nokian Hakkapeliitta's are out of this effing world.
Got a set on my Honda Clarity not long ago, this is my first set of CrossClimate 2 tires on an electric vehicle. I got these because I was so happy with them on my Camry.
They are fantastic in the rain. I've never had a tire so resistant to hydroplaning.
But I want to warn everyone interested that these tires are very noisy in the low frequency range of about 60-160 Hz.
I had some on my LR4 and they were completely destroyed after 15k miles. Thankfully they had a 60k mile warranty so Michelin paid for a good portion of the Pirellis that went on next.
