Got Michelin Crossclimate2 tires around 19k miles. The ride is smoother and feels like I’m locked into the road. Speed bumps, pot holes, and such feel way smoother to ride over.
I replaced the stock Yokohama Geolanders with Michelin Defender T+H after 3k miles. The change was quite drastic in noise-reduction and the Defenders performed a lot better too. It absorbed bumps a lot better and handles really well in both wet and snow
Replaced stock toyos after about 6k miles on my ‘22 with Michelin CC2s.
Subjectively quieter, softer ride, and performs better in snow/wet.
I'm happy with my Michelin cross climate. In Minneapolis. They're okay in the snow. Good in wet and dry.
Swapped my hankooks for the defenders last year.
Best tire hands down is the defender. It’s quiet, grippy, wears well. Won’t buy anything else for the summer seasons (run dedicated winters).
After several months with the Pilot A/S 4 tires, all is well. No blowouts, sidewall bubbles or bent rims. You can tell the difference the XL tires make. At first I thought I detected a little rougher ride but soon afterwards I am fine with the ride. Tire noise on certain surfaces is a little louder but overall fine. We will see how it goes with winter coming on, north of Philadelphia.
For winter tires the ice-x by Michelin are fantastic. But I was not impressed with the stock tires especially in heavy rain.
This is my second season rocking the pilot alpin 5’s with no issues. Only issue I have is with the design of the induction wheels: they trap snow inside the wheel and if it sinks to the bottom surface when you’re parked, it can freeze and cause a bad vibration because it puts the wheels off balance.
We had a set of these on our Rogue, and I wasn\u2019t really blown away by them. Tread life was awful, which really surprised me. Granted, wet grip was very good and they rode quietly, but I wasn\u2019t that impressed with them overall.
The o.e. tires where Continental Conti's but these results are from the present Michelin's. I didn't have the Conti's on long and unfortunately I never closely watched the MPG before going to the Michelins. the Conti's were slippery feeling and I see they are rated LRR, which I knew nothing about at the time. The mpg dropped w/ the Michelins... especially with lower pressure.
