Tires MICHELIN or Nokia
Personally I'm currently rolling with Michelin EcoSomethingsomething. Also Continental and Nokian are quite premium brands.
I went with the michelin defender ltx m/s on my 2016 with 22" rims. Been very satisfied so far.
The CrossClimate2 are excellent all-season tires. In fact, putting their all-weather capability aside, they're simply excellent even as far as 3-season tires go. So think of them as premium 3-season tires with extra winter capability.
I have recently installed michelin cross climate 2 and I am very happy with them. It is well worth the investment.
Personally I have Michelin crossclimate+ on my prius (they don't have crossclimate 2 in my size) and love them.
Michelin. Always Michelin.
The only time I've ever hydroplaned was on Goodyears.
They were new this spring, but so far no complaints. Half my driving is gravel before I reach the asphalt. So far I’ve only had one chance to take them up further into the bush, but with the snow slowly melting there too got some new adventures planned.
So far I really like them. No range hit I can’t blame on them being brand new tires, great warranty, and way better traction and cornering.
I did 215/45/18 xice3 on OE wheel for more sidewall, If I did it again I would do stock size 2254018. I lost a little bit of responsiveness/ punch from the 1/2\" taller overall diameter and also some curb protection from the 1/2\" narrower tire.
one of the michelins on my car blew at about 14,000 mi. it had a slash/crack on the sidewall not covered by any warrenty......It could have been a slasher or road hazard but I had driven out of my driveway and down the road a couple of miles and then it blew.......if someone knifed it it seems it would have been flat before I left..........I don't recall any debris on the road that could've caused the cut........other than that they seemed ok....
