Tires MICHELIN or Pirelli
At the price point, in my opinion, the Michelin is just not worth the extra money. The ps all season 4 and dws06+ trade blows all day on what they excel in.
Consider getting a good set of all-season tires. I have a 2wd Honda Civic that does great in snow because it has FWD and great tires. Michelin Cross-Climate are what I have and are one of the best.
I have been impressed with the Pirelli Scorpio and Sam's Club most of the time have them on sale. I don't have a Mazda yet but on my Atlas they have been better than the OEM Khumo and the previous set of Michelin I had. Smooth ride, quiet and great in wet and snowy conditions.
Brake early, get some winter tires, Michelin CrossClimate 2s are the best at summer and winter if you can only do one set.
I got Michelin Cross Climate 2. I expected them to be so so compared to the Pilot 4 Summer I had on, but I’ve been really pleasantly surprised. They’re a bit softer (not always a bad thing) and they make me feel so much more confident and safe in cold weather.
We went from a continental "contact" tire which was supposed to be highly rated to the crossclimates. This is on a van. The cross climates are quiet and have a much better ride quality. I haven't driven them in snow yet, but the tread appearance gives me confidence. We also have similar MPG, meaning we haven't given up mileage, and it may have improved. I'm anticipating getting them for my car soon.
I bought some nice tires for my wifes car. The set of 4 and the install was about $1500
Tbf to Pirelli, after Silverstone 2013 they’re scared shitless for another debacle
I went with cross climate 2s, but the performance has been really disappointing in wet conditions at low speeds, i lose traction often.
I got the Kia Niro EV used. It came with Michelin Primacy MXV4. If I drive in Normal mode or Sport mode, they slip with even moderate amounts of acceleration.
