Tires MICHELIN or Uniroyal
Just replaced them with the Michelin Crosstreads because I want better winter and overall braking performance.
Switched to Michelin CrossClimate2 in the EU squared tire size so we can do rear to front rotations.
I’d recommend Michelin CrossClimates. They’re quite good in the snow (3 peak rated) and in all weather situations. Quite a breakthrough in tire tech IMO.
Think I'm going to get Michelin Cross-Climates in lieu of dedicated snows this year. Don't get much snow in NoVa, but I've always been happy to have winter tires both in the cold and for the few times it does snow. I've read an awful lot about the Michelins being almost as good as a dedicated winter tire in the snow, so I'll be interested to see how they behave -- they'll almost certainly be good enough for my needs.
I got Michelin Pilot Sport AS4. The responsiveness and grip I got compared to stock is insane, especially if they got a bit less pressure than asked by Mazda.
MICHELIN CrossClimate® 2. Best tire I ever bought.
The overall best one is probably the Michelin CrossClimate2, which has excellent wet and dry traction in addition to its excellent winter traction.
I just bought a set of Michelin Cross climate 2s for my Subaru Crosstrek. A specific winter-only set would be best, but a good all-season works too.
The Michelin sidewalls had all the support in the world, to the point of feeling harsh. Awesome in the corners though but the car definitely thudded over expansion joints and bumps.
I have Michelin ltx tires now, can't say I'm not a bit disappointed, in snow they SUCK brand new they are worse then my worn BFG 's ..other then that pretty major problem they ride nice and are quiet.
