Tires MICHELIN or Triangle
I got the Michelin CC2s, I can testify they are amazing tires and perform VERY well in winter driving.
Michelin cross climate 2 are amazing and amongst the best year round all weather tire. Great in Midwest snow and cold temps along. It\u2019s a great tire and a top seller for a reason.
For a CB7 that you want to daily and take on touge-style runs, I\u00a0d honestly move away from the Kenda UHPs and into something that gives you real grip without the noise and cupping issues. The Michelin Pilot Sport 4S is still the benchmark in the ~300tw category way quieter, noticeably better mid-corner stability, and it doesn\u2019t get greasy after a few hard pulls the way cheaper 300tw tires do. You also get much better wet braking, which matters on an older chassis.
Was able to adjust just fine with careful driving and proper tires (you can even get the Michelin CC2s which are great up here in the snow and don\u2019t require swapping out each season).
I'd just get a good set of all-season tires if you need them (Michelin cross climate are the gold standard)
I just installed the Michelin cross climate 2, and it may be the best tire I’ve ever owned, for any car. Even my wife noticed a huge difference.
Had Michelin X-ice tires on my g8 GT when I had that. I could hardly tell it was a RWD muscle car.
I have cross climate 2s that are highly rated all weather tires for winter driving. They're phenomenal. My current FWD car drives about the same as my old AWD car did thanks to them.
Factory tires wore fast. The scorpions couldn't last more than 20k for me. Bought a few sets but ended up getting the ltx platinum tires, which are crap compared to the scorpions but they wear like rocks. Tread is still going strong after 40k.
This looks like to be a Michelin PS 3 or 4. If my guess is correct, these are sport tire which means soft rubber compound, and because of that they degrade (harden) fast. From experience, with normal use, they are good for 2-3 years of driving, then they get horribly bad (hard). Above 4 years they become hard like hockey pucks - the rubber looks shiny with lots of micro cracking and they are (from experience) deadly in the rain. So, judging from the picture one (i see micro cracking) and the fact they are 5 years old: They are gone. Tread depth is irrelevant now. They are so hard that you cant wear them down not even in 100.000km. Btw. about 6-7mm is the tread depth when these (Michelin PS) tires are new.
