After seeing Michelins go the distance on every car that came into the shop I switched to them and never looked back.
I got them for my wife's car, a luxury car that is quiet. We had light snow + local very icy roads last week and they were fine. Comfortable.
Got her the Michelin pilot super sports. Lowkey it’s some post purchase clarity, but I also regret not getting sum a little cheaper????. Happy regardless
I have them on my wife’s 2019 Mazda CX-9. It’s a very capable tire for what you’re asking for above. While they are directional they are not very noisy. Having said that I keep up with tire rotation (5k) as well as checking proper inflation every 3-4 weeks.
I used to have CC2's on my vehicle until I sold them. My wife now has them on her vehicle. The reason people suggest them is because they truly work fantastic. I was literally blow away. Dry traction (not hard lol). Great snow traction. And the craziest part, fantastic wet traction. I was driving down the highway and the highway, for whatever reason, around the bend was mildly flooded giving me no time to brake. I plowed through all that deeper water and only for half a second hydroplaned. I was blown away I didnt hydroplane through the majority of it and also happy my engine didnt suck up any water. . People in the comments have said they are noisy but I didnt notice it. Maybe me other "regular" tires were just as bad? The only down side to CC2's, they are a bit pricey. Well worth it for safety though!
I put on cross climate 2s on my wife’s 2019 Honda pilot all the way back in 2020 when the car had only 25k miles because the stock continentals where garbage. We have now had them on for 5 years and about 50k miles. I haven’t officially measured them but they look brand new. Still not even half way to the wear bars (just by looking at them)
Went to Michelin Pilot Sport AS's and never looked back. My Passat has the same tires (only the never model, AS4's I think) and they provide excellent road holding (it has the VR6, the continentals were absolute trash at holding the power down).
I have the CC2s on my ‘23 Outback and love them. I live in MN and there is no kind of weather they don’t handle great in.
I have had these tires for a little over 2 years and they have been great, but unfortunately they\u2019re needing replaced at 45,000 miles. I am a bit disappointed in that - I don\u2019t feel they wore very well and I am consistent with tire rotation/oil changes. Curious if anyone else has experienced early wear on these tires? Or is it expected to have to replace them this soon? From what I read I was expecting at least 60k miles\u2026
I purchased Michelins and within a year one developed a bulge in the tire sidewall. This bulge was not discovered until I had my tires rotated. It was on the inside of the tire and probably was there all along. They had a 50,000 mile warranty but the seller/installer Midas said the sidewall was not covered under the warranty! Read the warranties!
