Tires MICHELIN or OEM Subaru
I have the cross climate 2 and they are fantastic for light snow and ice.
I have Michelin CrossClimate and Maxxis Premitra, been happy with both, maybe slight edge to the Michelin.
Michelin cross climate 2. Not a snow tire but rather “all weather.” Great handling in dry, wet and snow. My first set I got about 60K on and I only replaced them this fall because its ability in the snow was fading towards the end (which is normal).
I will give a node to Michelin X-Ice, they were phenomenal on my 7th gen 2.4 without traction control- rarely encountered wheel spin
I have Michelin X-Ice snows on a set of 17” steelies. They’re awesome.
Michelin is the gold standard. Period. They're expensive and worth every penny. Quiet, smooth, great handling and wear like iron.
I stopped using continentals when my last set of DWS sounded like a freight train down the road in my golf. I switched to Michelin crossclimate 2s and they have been a great all weather and quiet tire.
I absolutely love Michelin tires on my truck. Currently I have control contact tour plus on my Jetta. Close to 80,000 miles and not on the wear bars yet. I’m hoping to get close to 100,000 miles out of them.
The last years all the Michelin tires I have sold and mounted have been less than impressive, took lots of oe ones off with fairly low mileage 20 to 25k ,for my money hankooks generally have been a good value and have become my go to brand
I got the Michelin mxm4 235/45 R18 tires, and by the time of first rotation at 5k miles, the rear tires went from 10/32" to 6/32". At 10k miles, all tires were already at 4/32 thread depth!
