Tires MICHELIN or VITOUR
I swapped the oem geolanders for Michelin cross climate 2’s since I don’t do much real offroading just hunting trails and mountain roads. They actually handle the wet leaf covered steep mountain side roads in pigeon forge better.
michelin tires worn to 2.2mm vs new cheap tires and the michelin was still better.
my Cup2s are sticky at ambient but turn into molten rubber when on track. Pretty amazing how well they work in that regard.
Michellin yung all weather. Been using it. So far so good. Tahimik at makapal pa rin kahit laging ginagamit
Having the CC2s will definitely help. The CC2s will definitely help you stop.
The past couple of sets I've had were Michelin X-Ice and they've been excellent. The X-Ices last for 40k or something.
More sidewall rubber gives a softer ride and absorbs winter roughness better, so a good idea. I went 29 inch 235/60R18 x-Ice for even more rubber and they are great.
Once I put Pilot Sports onto my V40 that thing just came alive. It didn't have crazy power obviously but you could use all of it, all the time and I kept up with or outran much quicker BMWs, Mercs and VWs because it could handle corners (especially once I got the hang of heel-toeing).
I drive the Michelins. All-Season tyres are winter tires that also work well in summer. Don't worry about the winter performance it will be good. For example the Cross Climate 2 has slightly lower aquaplaning test results than comparable 'summer' tyres.
This is standard for Michelin summer tires. They're not recommend for track use since they overheat and start to chunk.
