Just took my cc2 in the snow the other day and they rip. Honestly shocked how good they are. Also great in the wet and spirited dry driving
These are the Michelin Defender LTX M/S. Went up slightly to 265/65/18 with no rubbing!
My vehicle spends 99.9% of the time on surface roads, so road manners are incredibly important. However, I do plan to do some very light off-roading (Big Bend NP) in the near future, so I wanted something a little bit more capable than the OEM tires. Not to mention, I think the original tires were meant for a slightly lighter vehicle, as evidenced by the fact that they were beginning to show significant wear around the 20,000 mile range.
In October I ordered **oversize** Michelin PILOT® SPORT ALL SEASON 4s. Stock size: 255/40ZR20. Size I bought for a better look on the rim, added rim ding protection, better look on the car, and more "meat" on the contact patch was 265/40ZR20. Yes, they fit, no problemo.
With these Michelins, my Y is a bloody snowmobile. Can go just about anywhere, even pulling a trailer up and down steep snow/ice covered Tahoe roads. :-)
I just bought Michelin LTX Defenders last week for my 2017. Best tires you can buy hands down.
my wife’s Hybrid Highlander came with Michelins. I forget specifically what but I’m hoping they’ll last over $30k
Costco Michelins for the win. On our ‘15 Highlander and my ‘11 Tundra.
Got Michelins on my Highlander. Couldn't be happier.
I have a Mazda3 Hatchback and I'm switching from A/S tires to summers. Probably gonna go for the Pilot Sport 4 S
The best middle ground would be your UHP All Seasons category. Not as performance oriented as summer. But also not as costly. Michelin Pilot Sport 4 A/S, Conti DWS06+ for example.
but the Xi2s were amazing.... and then very quickly wore from being great, to being really really poor. Like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde over the course of about 3500kms....... they should have had another 1-2 full seasons on them but IMO they did not wear well after 2 seasons.
