Tires MICHELIN or WANLI
I had these on my V90 for 3 years. Fantastic all-season tire that worked great in the snow during ski trips. Pretty quite at highway and wore great. If not driving in snow/ice I think it's overkill but 100% would buy again.
The Michelin Energy Savers are great, and I never had a budget tyre come close.
I replaced mine this year and went with the Defender 2, not sure if you’ve considered them instead of the CrossClimate2. Love them so far, very quiet and smooth, and I find they handle water way better than the stock Nexens.
Michellin is always the go-to high end rubber for those who are flying with cash. Pilot Sport Cup 2/2R or Pilot Sport 4S for the wet. Pilot 4S I think is one of the best regarded tire in wet conditions & generally an amazing all-rounder.
We may have to send your original tires to a museum as the longest lasting Michelin Energy Savers!
If you live in South Texas in an area that gets a lot of rain I would say that you will get excellent traction with these. I live in Houston, and we get LOTS of rain and hurricanes etc. I have these on my Lincoln MKS (big heavy AWD sedan) because I previously lived in Colorado and needed the three peak rated tires for the snow. If I was living here when I needed new tires I probably wouldn’t have gotten them, but I have NEVER had a traction issue driving even at higher speeds in heavy downpours. Feels like a dry road to me.
I have been using michellin primacy 4ST since 35k on my car 4-5 years ago. Covered 40k till now they are still good for another 20-30k and they have made the car very quiet and much better to handle.
I did a lot of research while changing my Goodyear Triplemax. Imo, Continental UC6 and Michelin P4 are the best to have. I went for Michelin P4. Great tyre????
I'm on my second set. I drive a 2011 Outback and live i. The Chicagoland area. I've noticed that wet and dry driving is great. No noise. But in the snow, while turning, the car likes to plow. I'm not a fan of them in the wintertime.
I just had to get mine replaced after only a little over 17k miles. Now I run Michelin Pilot all season tires.
